Jamie Foxx's Offstage Brawl Disrupts Usher Show

By Christine Fenno Posted Feb 12th 2011 01:08PM

Usher was on the job Thursday night inside a crowded Los Angeles nightclub, giving a live performance at a vodka launch party, when two scuffling fans just about upstaged his concert.

Celebs in the stunned audience of 1,200 reportedly included Jenny McCarthy, Joe Jonas, Ryan Phillippe, Adam Lambert and 'DWTS' star Cheryl Burke.

And their shock probably had something to do with who was fighting: Oscar winner Jamie Foxx caused the commotion, according to RadarOnline, when an altercation with a former manager turned physical, midway through Usher's set.

A source on the scene says the brawl then "spilled to the outside area," and soon "security intervened. ... After some cops approached, both men seemed to make up with one another before they left."

No charges have been filed. The actor's rep has not commented on the incident.

After the fight broke up, Foxx reportedly left the venue scowling. "I don't know what the guy said to Jamie Foxx, but he was really p**sed," said the witness.

Back in 2004, Foxx, now 43, got into trouble with the law, charged with disturbing the peace (he was ultimately placed on probation) after he and his sister tangled with security guards at a New Orleans casino, and allegedly resisted arrest.

Last year, the busy performer (who earned an Oscar for 2004's 'Ray') won a Grammy for his T-Pain collaboration, 'Blame It.' This month, Foxx has been promoting his new family-friendly movie 'Rio,' in which he voices the role of a small yellow canary. He's also appearing in the upcoming Jennifer Aniston comedy 'Horrible Bosses,' as a character named Motherf**ka Jones.

His two decent movies don't make up for him being such a douche all the time. He never matured beyond "In Living Color" status.

you cant be a white man and NOT be a pedophile or a child molester. its a cultural thing for whites. your priests. your boyscouts. your politicians. no child is safe around white people. white men have sex with children and white women have sex with dogs and other animals.

you always talk bad about blacks because you cant face the facts about your savage ways

From TMZ: According to an eyewitness who was in the thick of things, Foxx and the other guy were in a long conversation -- and a pretty intense handshake -- when the guy suddenly pulled Jamie down and put him in a headlock.

If this is what happened then Jamie had every right to retaliate.

Jamie Foxx is a great talent (loved him in Dreamgirls) but very arrogant and too full of himself.

JF is here to stay. Between his stand-up act, movies, tv shows, music (singing, producing and playing), AND his own radio station on satellite (Foxhole Radio). Yeah, he's pretty much done it all successfully....

You're confusing Martin Lawrence for Jamie Foxx. That's a direct line from "Martin".

By V.

Mike:

You are just angry because you don't have any money and you are probably poor white trash yourself. I wouldn't be surprise if you got your as_ kicked all the times for mouthing off and being in other people's mix. Get a life s.o.b.
