Have you ever felt like you knew a person when you saw them, knowing that you have never met them before? Seeing Jamie Foxx on talk shows feels like that. He is a very down-to-earth person, and is very grounded in his values.

His appearance on ELLEN was delightful, but a very comical one as Jamie shared with Ellen Degeneres the one thing he cannot do: bowling. As he demonstrates how his stance is perfect when he bowls, Jamie pulls laughter from Ellen's audience as he shows the transformation his stance takes as he delivers the roll ... pure hilarious. But I guess, you had to be there. It makes me visualize myself when I bowl. Someone once told me that I look like a hurt chicken-LOL.
Anyway, as Ellen went down a list of activities, Jamie was open to most except anything dealing with large bodies of water [in relation to slaves being carried 'over']. With that being noted, he didn't add hockey as something he's good at. Simply because the ice is the same[water].
Jamie Foxx is multi-talented having been an actor in a TV series, then scoring leading roles in movies such as Ray and the Soloist, and then pursuing his dream of being a singer.
Jamie's latest single Blame It On the Alcohol, which he performed on the Ellen Show nestled in the number one spot on the charts for 12 consecutive weeks. And, according to Foxx, the single is soon to be number one in the pop charts.
Being multi-talented has its ups and downs. But by the demeanor of Foxx, he has it all under control; and by the status of his credits, he's keeping everything on the up and up. I wish him all the best.
