This week’s Star Magazine is trying to make something happen between Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx and talentless, unfunny Olivia Munn. According to Star (via Jezebel), Jamie and Olivia are having “secret hookups” because they have some kind of “low-key, on-again, off-again connection.” Now, Jamie and Olivia have been rumored to have something going on for a few months – apparently, they were all over each other at the Oscars, and Bossip reported that Jamie and Olivia were snuggled up together at this year’s Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscar party.

But is it true? Meh. Jamie has been dating Stacey Dash for a while, it seems (maybe, although I can’t find much about them recently), and Dash was his date for the Oscars this year (I think?). When Jamie’s boys started hassling him about Olivia on his radio show, Jamie shut it down (kind of)… there’s some minor NSFW language here:

He claims that he doesn’t “date” white women. But does he bone them? That’s the question. My verdict: Although I wouldn’t put it past Jamie to screw around on Stacey Dash (who is gorgeous), I don’t think he would do anything other than FLIRT with Olivia Munn. Munn, after all, is like the budget Blake Lively at this point – desperate for a high-profile celebrity boyfriend. Munn even tried to make a romance with Matthew Morrison happen, for goodness sake. And right after meeting Jamie at the Oscars, she was trying to make some kind of cuddelfesting with Jake Gyllenhaal happen. Poor Olivia. Slim pickings, girl.

Jamie Foxx really surprised me with his latest appearance at a charity event for Quincy Jones’ Global Down Syndrome Foundation. He came with his sister, DeOndra Dixon, who has Downs, and explained that she lives with him, along with his other sister and his mom and dad. It’s obvious that Jamie has a lot of love for Diondra, and he was even joking around about her. She laughed at him and rolled her eyes when he was gushing about her. Here’s ET Online’s coverage and you can watch their video through their website.

We’ve seen Jamie Foxx with his sister DeOndra Dixon on the red carpet but now he’s putting her in the spotlight and opening up about caring for a sibling with down syndrome.

“This little lady right here lives with me along with my other sister, along with my father and my mother. So, we’re one big happy family,” Foxx said while seated next to DeOndra.

On Saturday night, DeOndra and her peers participated in the Be Beautiful, Be Yourself Jet Set Fashion Show where music great Quincy Jones and “Survivor” host Jeff Probst were both in attendance. The event went to benefit Global Down Syndrome Foundation. Foxx said of the evening, “This is just so amazing that she gets to do her thing where the spotlight is on her. The focus is on her. It means a lot.”

The actor couldn’t help but dote on his sister, telling ET, “I don’t call it a condition. I just call it living. … When she loves, she loves. When she’s mad, she’s mad. When she cries, she cries. When she’s happy, she’s happy, but she always tells the truth.”

He said the message of this event was to be yourself and to recognize that there’s “beautiful everywhere.”

That’s so nice! I used to see Jamie Foxx as this kind of smarmy guy who used a music career as a side gig to get laid, but even if he does do that, and he probably does, he’s a nice guy! He’s taking care of his family and he didn’t just buy them a house or hire people for them, he’s living with them. I love that.

The event that Jamie and his sister attended raised $1.45 million which will go to the Linda Crnic Institute for Down Syndrome at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

Now here are some pictures of Jamie shirtless and also outside a club. Because you know that’s how you still see him. (Me too.) I would hit that and only feel slightly guilty.

A few weeks ago, Howard Stern and Jamie Foxx got into a heated war of words. I think it may have actually started with Stern’s comments about Gaby Sidibe, actually. But it didn’t take long for the war to become less about Sidibe’s honor and more about two douches whipping out their wangs and trying to prove who was bigger. Jamie and his friends got on Jamie’s radio show (The Foxxhole) and bashed Howard and Howard’s sidekick Robyn. Then Stern said something, something, blah, blah, Jamie Foxx is GAY. And then Jamie responded about the gay thing. But Jamie might have given us more questions than answers.

Here’s the audio clip of Jamie answering Stern’s gay jibes, but basically it boils down to this quote from Jamie: “I’m not gay…A lot of people say that I’m gay and that doesn’t bother me, because I could eat a pizza in a male shower and not feel anything because I’m secure with myself.” What the pizza shower what? I think the pizza shower thing must be on the cusp of the current gay culture, because I’ve never heard of it until now, and I really can’t wait to have this explained to me. What sex act is “pepperoni”? How about “extra cheese”? Do I not want to know?

Honestly, though, I think I understand what Jamie is trying to say, maybe. I think he’s saying that he could stand around eating pizza as he watched a lot of hot dudes get all sudsy and clean and lathered up and wet and bending over to pick over the soap… just thinking about it makes Jamie hungry. Hungry for pizza. Meat lovers pizza. And dick.

Jamie Foxx is getting some serious props for owning up to a full frontal nude picture of him that’s been floating around the internet. Well, to be fair, he’s not getting the props just for admit it’s him and it’s legit. The picture also proves that Foxx is quite well endowed. Last night he was on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, and Conan asked him about the photo. Then shook his hand. Jamie acted like he was embarrassed, but knowing men, I seriously doubt that was the case.

Academy Award winning actor and Grammy Award winning singer Jamie Foxx is the latest celebrity to hit the internet with a nude picture but this A-lister is not shying away from the scandal.

On Monday night’s Tonight Show, Conan O’Brien cleared the air over the leaked internet photo with the Law Abiding Citizen star. When asked if the naked picture is really him, Foxx admitted “it is me” but before he could explain how it was leaked, Conan congratulated the star and shook his hand. Foxx pretended to be bashful (yeah, right!).

Foxx then proceeded to explain the racy photograph (shown in the segment) was shot by himself when he was shooting the Miami Vice movie a few years back and sent to his make-up artist for a before-and-after comparison of his physical training for a nude scene. As most celebrities have found out the hard way, the photograph was intercepted by internet hackers.

“In transferring that material, I guess these people hang out on the internet and grabbed the picture and put it out on the internet.”

The scandal has proved fortunate for the award winning talent — Foxx confesses it has impressed the ladies and increased his gay fan base.

You’ll notice that a celebrity only admits it’s them when it’s a great photo. There are all sorts of pictures and videos that everyone’s busy denying. Really the only way to get them to ‘fess up is if it strokes the ego. So to speak. Sorry, I had to. Personally, if I were Jamie Foxx I would have this picture made into a pendant and wear it around my neck. All. The. Time. Instead of shaking their hand, I would greet people by flashing them the pendant. Because I’d want them to know what they’re dealing with from the get-go. Like, “Hey, how are you, whoops! That’s right, I’m better than you, you better hang your head whenever you’re around me. Yeah, that’s right, look. Damn I’m amazing.” And then wander off. Because it’d be important that everybody know what I have going on.

You can see the original full-frontal nude picture here, but it’s obviously about as NSFW as NSFW gets.

Jamie Foxx has been taking a secondary role for the promotion of Law Abiding Citizen, which gets a full theatrical release this Friday. Gerard Butler has been promoting this film for a few weeks now, and will be doing even more promotion this week as he chills out in New York City, rehearsing for his gig as host of this weekend’s Saturday Night Live. Can you imagine it? Sigh… my guess is that there will be at least one skit where he’s shirtless. And there will probably be (just guessing here) some kind of digital spoof of 300. Meanwhile, this interview with Jamie Foxx is literally the first thing I’ve seen Jamie do for his promotional duties beyond red carpet interviews at the premiere.

In Parade, Jamie talks about everything from R&B (it’s for the ladies) to Roman Polanski. I guess with the content of LAC (Gerard’s family gets killed, Jamie’s district attorney cuts a bad deal with the killers, Gerard hunts down and tortures and kills everyone), Jamie and Gerard are going to get a lot of unimaginative questions about the American justice system and whether it’s broken or whatever. Parade decided to ask Jamie about our failed justice system’s current poster boy, Roman Polanski. Jamie doesn’t go off as much as I would have expected:

Passing judgment on Roman Polanski.
“If it had been my daughter who was barely a teenager–my daughter is 15–Roman Polanski would be missing . . . period. It wouldn’t even get to the court case. But, that’s me and I wouldn’t want anyone else to follow that because you should let the justice system work it out. On the other hand, I don’t know Roman Polanski, but maybe if I had a relationship with him my answer would be different. I just think this whole issue is bigger than Roman Polanski.”

Where do you draw the line?
“Revenge is a tough thing. When it comes to someone bringing harm to your family, it’s hard to think about turning the other cheek. When I hear about things that we allow to go on in our society where women are harmed, I just knee-jerk. I’ve said some things publicly that my publicist keeps telling me I should keep to myself. I don’t know if that’s my Texas upbringing, but there comes a point where you just say, ‘OK, that would be my tipping point. What would I do?’ Some of things I’ve said I’d do to sexual perpetrators were pretty graphic. But I also read some stories of people taking the law into their own hands, which is bad too. So it’s tough to know how far you’d go.”

Trying not to get left behind with his choices as a singer.
“I’m just going to stay current. It’s like all my R&B cohorts are out of jobs right now. Nobody wants to hear R&B. It’s sad. If you want to be on the radio you got to stay young. My daughter always goes, ‘Dad you sound old. You sound 50. Why don’t you have a machine on your voice? They’re not going to like that. You gotta sound young.’ Then when she heard me sing ‘Blame It,’ she went, ‘That’s it. That’s real music.’”

The celebrity challenge.
“It’s hard to be a celebrity nowadays. It’s not about your track record anymore. If you have a great movie, you’re good. If not, people are ready to write you off. I think the only ones who are really winning are people like Will Smith. People go, ‘Oh, it’s Will Smith. I’ve got to see him, whatever he’s in.’ It’s tough because the lines have been blurred. I was watching that reality show with Jon and Kate. They’re huge, and I don’t even know what they’re huge for. They somehow crossed over because they’re just as popular as Brad Pitt.”

Beware of YouTube.
“If you’re somewhat successful, you can keep on doing your thing. But don’t get caught out there looking goofy. It’s weird. When you do something that stinks, it’s going to last forever on the Internet. There’s always someone in the audience with a camera phone and if you’re not 100%, you’re going to be watching yourself on YouTube.”

He sounds almost… thoughtful. Of course, this is the same guy who, back in April, said on his Sirius radio show that 16-year-old Miley Cyrus should “make a sex tape and grow up…Do like Lindsay Lohan and start being a lesbian… Get like Britney Spears and do some heroin… get some crack in your pipe… Catch chlamydia on a bicycle seat.” Of course, Jamie later apologized. And those just words. Granted, they were pretty gross, disgusting things to say about a 16-year-old, but it’s not like Jamie physically assaulted a young girl. Like Polanski did.

Jesus, the things I would do to this man. I could take that suit off of him with my teeth. I would lick that smug grin right off of his face. Mmm… where was I? Ah, yes. Gerard Butler was in great form for last night’s Los Angeles premiere of Law Abiding Citizen. His hair looked good, he looks like he’s lost some weight (the moobs did not make an appearance), and his suit was actually beautifully tailored and not very shiny (unlike the casino pit-boss getup he wore recently). While on the red carpet, Gerard started fooling around with some of the photographers behind the press rope line. He took away one female photographers absolutely massive camera (the lens is twice the size of Gerard’s head!) and began posing with it. Then he went back to the lady and made sure everybody got pictures of him posing with the photographers. He looks so cute.

It looks like Gerard and Jamie Foxx posed for a few pictures on the red carpet, which is nice to see. There were some rumors during filming about how Gerard and Jamie didn’t really care for each other. One source told the tabloids several months ago: “Jamie is jealous of the female attention Gerard gets. And Gerard is annoyed that Jamie’s always jetting off to Vegas to party.” Sources also claimed that the two men had horrible nicknames for each other – Gerard might have called Jamie “The Fool” while Jamie called Gerard “Ger-tard”. Worst. Nicknames. Ever. But now Jamie is singing Gerard’s praises, telling reporters on the red carpet: “The movie is absolutely incredible, Gerard Butler is absolutely fantastic in the movie and it was great working with him… It’s a great popcorn, sit-down-have-a-good-time movie.” Gerard said Jamie was “the most incredible guy, an incredible actor. He’s a true gent.”

Despite posing with several ladies on the red carpet, Gerard was solo for the evening. Some days, I tell you, it really is like he’s waiting for me, isn’t it? I will walk on a red carpet with him someday, by God. He told reporters that he’s only got one woman in his life - his pug Lolita (twitch). Gerard said, “My leading lady, she’s at home. I couldn’t find her a dress.” How f-cking cute is he?

Wendy Williams has a new television chat show, and she invited actress Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon on as a guest. They were discussing their friends, and Wendy asked Garcelle if she was still close friends with Jamie Foxx, whom she had worked with on The Jamie Foxx Show in the 1990s. Garcelle confirmed that she and Jamie are still friends, and that they spent some time together at Easter. Garcelle then said, “He told me that he had a new baby and I said, ‘Jamie, wow! Do I know the babymama?’ and he goes, ‘No.’ And I go, ‘Do you know the babymama?’” So, basically, Jamie’s “good friend” Garcelle just outed Oscar-winner Jamie as having a secret baby and baby-mama on a C-List chat show. Why didn’t one of Jude Law’s friends do this?

Actress Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon has sparked a new gossip storm after revealing former co-star Jamie Foxx has had a secret child on national TV. The Wild Wild West star was chatting with talk show host Wendy Williams on TV when she let it slip that her Jamie Foxx Show pal was a dad again.

Revealing she’s still close to the Oscar winner, Beauvais-Nilon told Williams, “We’re very cool, we saw each other on Easter Sunday… and he told me that he had a new baby and I said, ‘Jamie, wow! Do I know the babymama?’ and he goes, ‘No.’ And I go, ‘Do you know the babymama?’”

Shocked by the revelation, Williams asked her studio audience if they knew Foxx was a new dad, adding, “Thank you for the hot topic tidbit.”

Realizing she may have given too much away, a red-faced Beauvais-Nilon looked into the camera and said, “J, I’m sorry!”

The show then cut to a commercial break.

Foxx’s representatives have yet to address the rumour the Ray star is a dad again.

Jamie already has one daughter that we know of, Corinne, who is either 13 or 14 years old. She was his date for the Oscars the year he won (2005). It wouldn’t surprise me to learn that Jamie has another child, and one he’s kept secret. This is because I really don’t know much about Jamie’s personal life. That being said, he’s always struck me as a good-time, anything-goes sort of man (like Jude Law), so I don’t find it particularly shocking that he’s got a baby (or two or three) we haven’t heard about. Hopefully, he’s financially supporting the baby and the mother. We’ll see.

Although Daniel Craig doesn’t seem eager to vacate 007’s shoes, there has been a rash of rumors about who the next James Bond will be. Apparently, there’s a growing cry for the next Bond to be black – maybe it’s The Obama Factor? Obama wouldn’t be the worst James Bond, actually, so that’s my first choice.

Will Smith is chiming in about Bond casting – he thinks he’s up against Jamie Foxx and Puff Daddy for the role. Lord, I hope he’s joking. Will thinks he has an edge, because he can “guarantee the box office”. He’s got a point – currently, Will is the reigning box office champion, but it doesn’t seem like the James Bond franchise is really hurting. The past two Daniel Craig-helmed Bond movies took in something like a billion dollars worldwide. Extra TV talking to both Will Smith and Jamie Foxx about the casting:

Actor Will Smith is dishing to “Extra” about who he thinks should play the first black James Bond on the big screen.

“Extra” caught up with the megastar last night, as he was presented with the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Humanitarian Award. When an “Extra” friend asked Will who would make a better black James Bond — himself, P. Diddy, or Jamie Foxx — Smith responded, “Puff probably lives the most like James Bond… Jamie Foxx got the swag for James Bond. He can sing too, so he can add a new element to Bond. Wooing the ladies… and I think I can guarantee the box office!”

Jamie Foxx wants fans to know that he is definitely in the running! He told our Mario Lopez that he wouldn’t mind donning the 007 tux. “Might be kind of cool. What would my drink be? Not vodka. I’d have to drink Hennessy or something like that. Little yak attack for James Biz-ond!”

Smith is no stranger to playing secret agents on the big screen. He played Agent J in two “Men in Black” blockbusters — and hopes to return for a third! “We’ve had a couple of meetings. We’re looking at it,” Smith says of a potential third round of the hit franchise.

“The team has committed, so we have to do it service with the creative part of it. Everyone is on board, so we will see what happens.”

“Extra” also caught up with Jada Pinkett-Smith at the ceremony, who brushed off rumors that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are planning on sending little Suri to Will and Jada’s new Los Angeles area school. Pinkett-Smith tells “Extra,” “No, Suri is not going to the school. That’s just rumors.”

Perhaps this all started because Idris Elba, that cool drink of water from The Wire, The Office and that horrible-looking “what hath God wrought?” Beyonce film Obsessed, started talking about how he would make a pretty decent James Bond. Yes! Okay, President Obama is my first choice for Bond, Idris Elba is my second choice. Idris told the Guardian (quotes via The Press Association): “I can run around, flirt with ladies and drink. Plus I’m English… Who wouldn’t like to play Bond? Do I think it will happen? No, but I’ve got what it takes to do it.” Amen to that.

Star Magazine is reporting the rumor that Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler are not getting along at all while filming Law Abiding Citizen. What’s the beef between the Oscar-winning actor and the Scottish heartthrob? It all comes down to the ladies, apparently. Jamie is very jealous of the female attention Gerard Butler gets. Um… I’m sure Jamie gets his fair share of the ladies. Or are the women of Philadelphia just obsessed with Gerard Butler and his naked romps through the city? Excuse me, let me savor that image for a little while…

Hollywood catfights aren’t just between the ladies! Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler have been going at it on the set of Law Abiding Citizen. An insider tells Star, “Jamie is jealous of the female attention Gerard gets. And Gerard is annoyed that Jamie’s always jetting off to Vegas to party.”

The Dueling duo even have pet names for each other: Gerard calls Jamie “The Fool”, and he’s known as “Ger-tard!”

“It’s like high school on this set!” says the source. Boys will be boys!

[From Star Magazine print edition]

Uh, not funny. “Ger-tard” sucks. And “The Fool” is unoriginal. I hope that part of the rumor is not true. That’s all I’ve got say about that.

In other Jamie Foxx news, I’m surprised that The Soloist isn’t getting better reviews. From most of the stuff I’ve read about the film, people like it, they think Foxx will get an Oscar nomination, but mostly they think it’s a good-not-great film. The Soloist was going to be a big Oscar contender last year, but the studio pushed the release date. The sometimes lukewarm reviews are making me think that something else might have been amiss in the film’s testing. I was also surprised to learn that Foxx didn’t even try to learn the cello – he merely studied how to fake-play. The Los Angeles Times has a piece about the guy who trained Foxx to make the correct movements to look like a concert cellist:

[Ben Hong] and the Oscar-winning actor began their four-month crash course on the cello in early September 2007. For 10 hours a week, they practiced the movements needed to make Foxx look like he’s actually playing the mostly Beethoven repertoire that includes passages from the Cello Sonata No. 4 and the second movement of the Triple Concerto.

Hong developed a simplified notation so Foxx could learn the left-hand fingerings. He also taught the actor the bowing techniques. (They applied soap to the bow in order to muffle the sound during practice.)

During production, Hong was literally everywhere. He served as technical advisor for all scenes involving music; he coached actor Tom Hollander, who plays the L.A. Philharmonic’s principal cellist; he recorded all of the playback tracks (whenever we see Foxx play the cello, the sound is performed by Hong); and he even plays himself in a few brief glimpses.

For the playback tracks, Hong had to play deliberately out of tune to suggest Nathaniel Ayers’ state of mind. He worked with the film’s composer, Dario Marianelli, in order to perfect the imperfect sound.

“Dario would come out of the control booth and say that ‘it’s too pretty or the intonation was too good, you have to make it worse,’ ” recalled Hong. “That was actually a lot of fun.”

The musician was hired for the film because he had already met Ayers through Steve Lopez, whose articles inspired the movie. Most of the filming took place at a warehouse in Culver City, as well as a few days at Walt Disney Concert Hall.

[From The LA Times ]

Meh. I’ll probably rent it, but I guess I won’t see The Soloist in the theatres. Robert Downey Jr. looks good in it, though. I love when Downey does straight drama – he’s a much better dramatic actor than people give him credit for.

Here are Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx being welcomed to Philadelphia during a press conference at City Hall on January 23rd. Images thanks to WENN.com .

Billy Ray Cyrus is obviously pretty pissed about Jamie Foxx’s crude, nasty comments about Miley. Though Jamie Foxx apologized on The Tonight Show, it doesn’t seem like Billy Ray is going to just leave it at that. Billy Ray was on Bonnie Hunt’s show when he said, regarding Jamie Foxx, “It was hurtful. There wasn’t nothing funny about it. And, quite frankly, I think if I said those things about his daughter, he might not find it so comedic.”

Jamie’s comments were so over the line, there are probably very few people who didn’t think it was a total bone-headed, horrible moment. No matter what you think of Miley (little brat, in my case), a sixteen-year-old doesn’t deserve to be mocked in such a cruel and degrading manner by an adult. That being said, Jamie’s comments were directed at Miley, not her father. US Magazine has more:

Billy Ray Cyrus says Jamie Foxx was out of line after making crude remarks at his 16-year-old daughter, Miley Cyrus.

Foxx, 41, apologized Tuesday for saying on his Sirius radio show that the Hannah Montana star needs “to get a gum transplant … make a sex tape … do some heroin.” (His other insults were too vulgar to reprint.) Foxx — who has a teenage daughter — told Jay Leno, “I didn’t mean it maliciously. You know I’m a comedian.”

But on Thursday’s Bonnie Hunt Show, Billy Ray says, “It was hurtful. There wasn’t nothing funny about it. And, quite frankly, I think if I said those things about his daughter, he might not find it so comedic.”

Foxx said he plans to call Miley and apologize: “I got a daughter too, so I completely understand.”

[From US Magazine]

It will be interesting where this goes. Will Billy Ray continue to talk about the incident? Will Miley? I’ve been surprised at Miley’s restraint, actually. She hasn’t issued any kind of statement, no “that sucks, y’all” or anything. I’m just thankful Billy Ray and Miley haven’t made this into a racial thing, because it easily could have been. Personally, I don’t think it had anything to do with race. It was just about a really talented guy who thought no one would notice if he spoke in such a crude way about a sixteen-year-old girl.
