Jamie Foxx said that Bobby Brown once went through his closet in search of a tape.
Appearing on the latest episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s Stand-Up Roundtable, Foxx, who was joined by Sarah Silverman, Seth Meyers, Roy Wood Jr., and others, shared an unbelievable night he spent with Brown and a group of friends.
“One night, me and Bobby Brown, we’re doing our thing, we’re f**ked up, and we’re doing ‘Don’t Be Cruel,’ Foxx recalled
“So, we’re partying, and I say, ‘I got to use the bathroom,’” the Oscar winner continued. “And while I’m in the bathroom, I hear, “Now, Jamie, let me tell you something, I don’t do this for nobody. I usually get a million dollars to sing a song.”
Foxx went on to explain that it was Whitney Houston who started singing “I Will Always Love You,” and he grabbed his camera to record it.
“So now I got the tape, I go back to my crib, we’re having a little afterparty, and all of a sudden I hear this (knock, knock, knock) … It’s Bobby Brown,” Foxx explained.
“He’s like, ‘I got to take that tape,’” added Foxx. “I said, ‘Bobby, I don’t have it.’”
“‘Well, I got to take something.’ So, he goes into my closet, and he’s taking clothes. He’s matching outfits and shit,’” alleged Foxx.
Foxx admitted that he’s still in possession of the footage that Brown so desperately wanted — but he has no intention of sharing it with the public.. “I have the tape,” explained Foxx. “But it doesn’t mean anything anymore. Why? YouTube.”
Elsewhere during the discussion, Foxx shared how he felt when people said he had a clone after he recovered from a stroke.
“When they said I was a clone, that made me flip. I’m sitting in the hospital bed, like, ‘These bitch-ass muthaf**kas are trying to clone me,’” Foxx said.
