Jamie Foxx!

jamiefoxx

so tonight’s idol mentor/theme is “songs from jamie foxx movies”, 1) WTF 2) who’s doing the “booty call” soundtrack. that led me to googling the foxx man’s filmography….seriously, 2004, jamie foxx, maybe the all-time best year for anyone ever. not only did dude release films for which he would win an oscar (“ray”), a second oscar nom (“collateral”), and three golden golbe nominations (“ray” (won), “collateral”, “tookie williams story”, in that year jamie was featured on 2 #1 singles (“slow jamz” & “gold digger”)! for real…. holy shit! i can’t recall anyone even coming close to a year or even two/three years like that. maybe cher in the mid to late 80’s? sinatra? not madonna or elvis. yes jamie foxx in the same discussion as/superseding cher, sinatra, elvis, madonna. total mindblower.
