Cameron Diaz reflects on Jamie Foxx's health scare

Cameron Diaz took a trip down memory lane recently while speaking of Jamie Foxx's health scare.

The actress, 52, was in a conversation with Extra about their newly released action-comedy at its Berlin premiere on Wednesday when it shifted to the medical emergency that happened on the movie's set.

“For every person who knows Jamie, it was terrifying," said Diaz.

"For everybody who loves Jamie, the world, everybody was concerned," added the actress. "I can't even imagine how he feels."

For those unversed, Foxx, 57, was rushed to the hospital when he suffered a brain bleed that led to a stroke in April 2023.

Diaz opened up about how she was "so proud of" Foxx, for "how brave he was to do his show, to let us all know."

"But you know, it’s hard. You walk up to him and he’s like, ‘Everybody cries'!" she told the publication.

Foxx also got candid about how it was like for him.

“For a while, everybody was crying. Snoop was crying! I was like, 'Crips don’t cry, brother — c’mon!' " he quipped. "But now, it’s the joyous time and to be over here in Berlin and watch the movie play and people enjoying it."

"I mean that’s what it’s about — being able to get back to what you do — and what we did do is really good," the comedian-actor told the outlet.

His new Netflix comedy special What Had Happened Was...which premiered last month—addresses much of the incident.
