Triple threat comedian-musician-actor, Jamie Foxx became widely renowned in the entertainment world for his Academy Award winning performances, Grammy Award winning melodies and laugh out loud stand-up and sitcom comedies. But while he’s managed to amass millions of fans for what he’s done in the spotlight, possibly his most important and humbling role yet takes place when all the cameras turn off: parenting his two independent daughters, Corinne and Anelise. And although his girls have very different views on the world, there is one thing they can agree on: Dad gets on their motherf***ing nerves.
During this special event, Jamie Foxx opens up about his new book, ACT LIKE YOU GOT SOME SENSE, sharing the complex, exciting and, often times, hysterical journey of fatherhood from the mind of one of the world’s most talented entertainers. And, with his beloved and fierce grandmother inspiring the title of the book, Jamie reflects on the tough love and old school values she instilled in him growing up in the small town of Terrell, Texas and how those foundational principles allowed him to navigate his early stand-up days and Hollywood Stardom. Hilarious, poignant, and always brutally honest, this will be an unforgettable evening of laughs, tears, and wisdom.
