Actor Jamie Foxx posted an apologetic message on social media to the Jewish community. The interpreter of Django in the last Tarantino film had been widely criticized by the media A Wider Frame and The Times of Israel. The American actor wrote on his Instagram account: “They killed this guy called Jesus… what do you think they’re going to do to you?”. He has since deleted his post.
“I now know that my choice of words offended and I’m sorry about that,” he shared apologetically. And to add: “That was never my intention. To clarify, I was betrayed by a fake friend and that’s what I meant with “they”, not anything else. I have nothing but love in my heart for everyone. I love and support the Jewish community. My most sincere apologies to anyone who was offended.”
The media A Wider Frame and The Times of Israel reacted and denounced a message conveying a plot against the Jews. They believe that Jamie Foxx is referring to “Jewish deicide”, a conspiracy that Jews killed Jesus.
For several months, Jamie Foxx has been absent from the media scene. After a medical complication, which occurred in April, the actor withdrew. At the end of July, he made an appearance and reassured his fans about his state of health. He still refuses to communicate on what led him to the hospital. “I can’t tell you where it got me,” he said.
Jamie Foxx said he was “back from hell” in a video posted on Instagram overnight from Friday to Saturday, his first public speaking since his health problem. “Some said I had gone blind, but as you can see my eyes are working perfectly,” the comedian joked, squinting in one eye, in response to speculation about his condition.
“I didn’t want you to see me with tubes coming out of my body and trying to figure out if I was going to make it,” he explained to justify his long silence. “But I’m coming back and I’m able to work,” he added. “I went through hell and came back from it, and my recovery wasn’t free of obstacles either,” he says, thanking both his fans for their support and his family for their support. discretion.
