Jamie Foxx clowned Miley Cyrus on his "Foxxhole" radio station this weekend then turned around and apologized during his recent Jay Leno appearance.


Jamie was pretty rough on Miley -- calling her a "little white b*tch" at one point and suggesting she "do a sex tape and grow up" "do some heroin like Britney Spears" and "catch chlamydia off a bicycle seat". It definitely got a little graphic, listen to the clip below and tell me if you think he was way out of line or if he should be excused for doing what comedians do.



I thought it was pretty funny myself, but definitely kinda harsh. Here's his apology from "The Tonight Show" as well if you missed it:



The apology was good, up until he got to the point of blaming TMZ for taking things out of context. Should kids be off limits from adult comedy? Or do you think in cases like Miley Cyrus where they are putting themselves in the public spotlight as entertainers they're fair game? Talk to me y'all!



He should've just blamed the alcohol.

Don't like Miley Cyrus.

Good work, Foxx.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Jaime, WTF u doing dawg??? You didn't even have to apologize my nig!!! You should of just brushed ya shoulders off and kept it movin...This shit wasn't even a big deal, Bill O'Racist tryed to make it one, but he always falls short, cause he is a Hip-Hop hater and a racist...Didn't nobody come down on you for that but him....
YOUR A COMEDIAN DAWG, & FOR ANYBODY WHO CAN'T SEPERATE JOKES FROM REAL TALK, THEN THEY NEED TO BE UNEMPLOYED...
If Bill O'Racist would of said this shit bout Solange, Kelly Rowland, Aamerie, or any average black celeb, I GUARENTEE WE WOULDN'T EVEN BE HEARING ABOUT THIS SHIT......REAL FUCKING TALK!!!!
FUCKING WHITE FOLKS AND THEIR TACTICS...
SOMEBODY PLEASE MERK BILL O'RACIST ALREADY..WHY IS THIS DUDE STILL BREATHING?????

PS... Who the fuck is Myley Cirus anyway??? I mean I have heard the name, but don't even know what she looks like...
I

^^^^^^^^ Correction.....
If Jaime Foxx would of said this shit bout Solange, Kelly Rowland, Aamerie, or any average black celeb, I GUARENTEE WE WOULDN'T EVEN BE HEARING ABOUT THIS SHIT,

I believe the difference between him talking trash about Solange, Kelly Rowland, etc is that these entertainers are of age. Miley Cyrus is not. No matter what you think about Miley telling an underage girl to make a sex tape, do heroin, and catch a std is STUPID.

Man I wouldn't have apologized for shit. As soon as someone disses a little white girl then everyone wants to get heated, meanwhile this bitch is walking around with a 20 something year old man and nobody protests against him. FUCK miley cyrus & bill o reily can eat a dick too.

And that nigga Jamie knows what the deal is. Apologize to mainstream America so you can keep the checks comin. I aint mad at you bro. Blame it on the goose!!

@PacH...Damn, for real...I don't even know who Miley is, but if what you said is true, then damn, and that only reaffirms that there is a double standard when it comes to race and gender...
@So Fresh...(Nice Handle Name by the Way) I don't think that this would of hurt his career....He is on a whole different label.. Dude has won a grammy and a oscar, regardless of what he says, he still going to get people knocking down his door, blowing his agnet's celly up, and begging him to play in their roles...It's not like he Chris Brown'd someone or pulled a Michael Vick.. DUDE IS A COMEDIAN..AND FOR ANYONE TO TAKE WHAT HE SAID OUT OF CONTEXT, AND I DON'T CARE IF HE WAS SERIOUS, LIKE MY MAN PACH SAID ABOVE, THE MINUTE SOMEONE THAT IS BLACK SAYS SHIT ABOUT WHITE FOLK THEN THEY WANNA GET HEATED...
Ok, I can understand the age thing. But at the same time, I still think if he would of said this bout:
Kiki Palmer & u lucky that I can't think of any other black women celebs that under the age of 18, THIS STILL WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A BIG DEAL...WHITE FOLKS ONLY CARE BOUT THEIR OWN!
Please wake up and take off those blinders and de-program your mind from what the white man has programmed into you!!! REAL TALK!!!

GOD DAMN NIGGERS, NIGGERS R NOTHING BUT OVERDEVELOPED APES FUCKING NIGGERS

Ok, yeah maybe he shouldn't have said it but he's on HIS radio show stating HIS opinion. If that's how he feels about Miley Cyrus - the daughter of "Achy Breaky Heart" Country Singer Billy Ray Cyrus who has the Hannah Montana show - then let it be that. I mean true it was harsh but damn can a person speak their mind sometimes??? You don't have to like what the fuck I'm saying and you don't have to respond if it's not shot DIRECTLY at you. It's not like Miley was in the studio across the table with him when he said it. I mean come on man. Ever since 2 Live Crew this damn censorship shit gets out of hand sometimes. You can't even say how you feel without it becoming a public outrcry for being so politically incorrect. Plus, he is a comedian so it could have at least been taken in stride. OH and BTW - we don't know what Miley said about Radiohead, it must have really rubbed Jaime the wrong way for him to speak up on it. I'm not promoting blantant disrespect of anyone. I'm just simply saying that a person ought to be able to speak their mind in their own house. Even if it is on the radio. EVERYONE can't just listen in, you have to have Sirius radio. Oh geez, this is just stupid. LOL I'm done. LOL

@ Niggerhater - I feel so bad for you. From your comment I'm led to believe that you have been brainwashed all your life. Seek help and find refuge before you destroy yourself.

I WILL DESTROY NIGGERS BEFORE I DESTROY MYSELF

LOL@She needs to get a gum transplant!

Celebrities in general are fair game. Everyone used to dog the hell out of the Olsen twins why not this white bitch!!!

I feel Jamie Foxx shouldn't of apologize. He said what majority of people is thinking. I don't care for Miley Cyrus, I believe her career is overhyped. Her fame won't last long just like other child stars before her.I hate when stars say things and take it back. If you said what you said, stand by it. Don't act like a little punk and backtrack your statement.

@Clo-fresh.I hate your bitchass but you do have a point about that Bill O'Bitch mofo and his racist tactics though.Co-sign you 100% on this one...beef still on though,I'll still have a Somali pirate run up on you with a sword in the parking lot!!South Africa signing out,differet time-zone faggot,I'm so paid my pocket is deeper than your bank account!!!

I must say as a black person I am really ashamed about this whole incident and how black people are responding. Why are we allowing our standards to fall so low they are almost non-existent. Why are we losing our morals? Why do we feel the need to make everything about race? Some here and on other sites stated that if he said these things about Solange, Amerie or Kelly Rowland then it would not be a big deal. however the BIG difference with these comparisons is all of these WOMEN are adults. And even then, in my book, his comments would still be inappropriate.

@GrowingOnMe:

I will say that your comments were the most coherent that I have read thus far. However with free speech comes responsibility whether we want to believe that or not. Mr. Foxx, being the father of a daughter who is about the same age as Miley I feel should have known better. Would he like it or see it as, "just jokes" had someone, especially someone that did not know him or his daughter, said that about his? I don't think he take it lightly. I don't think this will hurt his career. I just hope he think before he speaks in the future. I had a lot of respect for Mr. Foxx as a talented and versatile black man in Hollywood, doing right, staying out of trouble and clean, presenting himself in a respectful fashion. I hope he will continue to carry himself in that fashion because I want to gain respect for him once again.

That's just my two cents.

@mytwocents - first off thanks for the love on "my two cents" :-) and I must say that you do have a point. If it was his daughter, maybe he wouldn't have taken it lightly because, sure, noone wants anyone to disrespect their kids or family and in that respect he was out of pocket. But again, if that's his opinion about her he should have the right to state it on his radio show. He didn't go to MediaTakeout or go to his blog and bash her to death, he just stated an incident and what happend and how he felt about it. He just made the wrong choice to use obscence language. I guarantee that if he said something in jest like "Miley Cyrus needs to get run over by a bus" I don't think anyone would have even brought this up - well maybe because it's "celebrity gossip" but you get what I'm saying. It wouldn't have seemed so harsh. That's just me. I appreciate your comments and maybe we can talk again on another topic. :-) I love stimulating conversation. Have a good one! :-)
