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.

I ask you very seriously, why isnt this on Black Voices? I'll tell you why because they are racist too. you cant have it both ways, if it was wrong 40 years ago ( to exclude other races form your programming) its wrong today.... when will people realize and see the double standard.....and how it sets a precedent,,,,,,,,,and perpetuates a "you owe us attitude"
BTW where's that Grammar lady how'd I do ? not bad for a white boy huh?

What do you expect from "those types"?

By frankerin

You can't be a black man if you can't lose your temper and hurt people. It's a culture thing. There is none.

It's a disease. Another athlete was physically removed from his own team's airplane for fighting. Are all these people mental?

ih,,just to piss you off...seems it worked

By Patron at Sporting Club in Philly

A year and half ago I was at the gym, The Sporting Club at the Bellevue in Philadelphia. I can barely afford it, but ti's the highest end gym in Philly. We see celebs in there sometimes and none of them get bothered, but rarely has anyone ever did the following.

Foxx was here shooting a movie and while he was in the gym, he was flanked by body guards 24/7. It was made clear, that no one was to bother him. So no one talked to him as requested and his guards really kept watching people walk by. No one was allowed to talk to Jamie however, Mr. Foxx went out of his way everytime an attractive white girl walked by to speak with her.

The man is a pretentious, racist ..piece of trash. Also, as a life long Dallas Cowboys fan, I am ashamed to say that he is a fan of my team. I would love to spit in his ghetto face.

Again, you are a racist piece of trash, for the lack of a better word.

By Rick

Jamie Foxx isnt frim the ghetto. He is from Terrell, TX. He used to be a musical director and choir leader at his church. Maybe all the fame has gone to his head. Maybe his Pastor should call and remind him of his roots.

Oh No! Better watch that Damn Adam Lambert. He'll sthcratch your eythe out hunny!!! LOL...

Jamie Foxx is an egtotistical racist SOB. He did a wonderful job of acting in "Ray" but that's it! I do not respect people who act like him.

By AladdinSane

I could never take JF...and I still can't stand him...there's an arrogance about him at times that seems to swallow him up and make him talk rubbish.
Oy...
Peace!
