Jamie Foxx's Offstage Brawl Disrupts Usher Show
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.
