Actor Jamie Foxx required medical attention following an incident at his 57th birthday celebration that left him needing stitches. The Academy Award winner was dining at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills when an altercation occurred with someone from another table.
According to Foxx's spokesperson, the incident happened on Friday night when "someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth." The Beverly Hills Police Department responded to the restaurant around 10 p.m. after receiving reports of a possible assault.
While authorities initially received calls about an assault with a deadly weapon, police later clarified that the incident involved "a physical altercation between parties." No arrests were made, though police are continuing their investigation.
Following the incident, Foxx took to Instagram to address his supporters, posting "The devil is busy... but I'm too blessed to be stressed." In his caption, he thanked fans for their prayers and support, adding that "when your light is shining bright... they try to bring you darkness."
The birthday dinner was attended by Foxx's daughters Corinne and Anelise, as well as his ex Kristin Grannis. The incident comes just days after the release of his new Netflix comedy special "What Had Happened Was," which currently holds the number one spot on the streaming platform.
This altercation follows Foxx's recent recovery from a serious health scare earlier this year, during which he experienced a brain bleed and stroke that left him hospitalized. The actor has since made a remarkable recovery and returned to public life.
