Sean 'Diddy' Combs is currently on trial in New York City and may be found guilty of numerous crimes, but one thing he's not guilty of is an attempt on Jamie Foxx's life.
In 2023, Foxx experienced a 'medical emergency' the details of which were at first concealed from the public. As time went on that summer, Foxx's hospitalization and stint in rehab without explanation led to numerous conspiracy theories among his fans. One of those theories is that Diddy had something to do with his mysterious health issue.
Foxx ultimately explained what happened when he collapsed on the set of Back In Action , a Netflix movie he was filming at the time in Atlanta. In his Netflix standup comedy show, What Had Happened Was, he said that he woke up in the hospital days later. And he says that had his sister not quickly intervened and an Atlanta doctor rushed him into surgery, he would have died.
In a comedian's roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter, with Seth Meyers, Hasan Minhaj, Sarah Silverman, Chelsea Handler and Roy Wood, he talks about the numerous drugs he was prescribed in the hospital. After sneaking into his phone for a connection to the outside world, Foxx found out the world thought he'd been cloned and that Diddy tried to kill him.
'Yeah, it was, 'This is for your pain, and this is so you don't remember it.' So, they Men in Black -ed me, and I'm f-cked up, and this isn't funny, but I snuck in my phone because I didn't know what the outside world was saying, and I couldn't get my mind around the fact that I had a stroke. I'm in f-cking perfect shape. [I see things like,] 'Puffy tried to kill me.' No, Puffy didn't try to kill me.'
Diddy and his parties were once so significant in entertainment circles that many celebs have been photographed with him and/or attended one of his bashes, including his famous white parties. However, Foxx, who is known for his own lavish events, said that he always left Diddy's parties early. He joked about it in his Netflix special.
'The internet said Puffy was trying to kill me, that's what the internet was saying,' Foxx said at the show, which was taped in Atlanta in 2024. 'I know what you thinking, 'Diddy?' Hell no, I left them parties early.'
Fox has fully recovered from what he described as a brain bleed that led to a stroke. Swift action by an Atlanta doctor he thanks in the special saved his life, as did his sister's instinct that led her to take him to the right place.
After his role as a producer for the Apple TV+ series, Number One On The Call Sheet, a two-part documentary marking the ascension of Black actors and actresses released in March, Foxx is starring in Tin Soldier with Robert DeNiro and Scott Eastwood and All-Star Weekend with Gerard Butler and Robert Downey Jr. Both are expected to be released this year.
