Jamie Foxx has posted a bold statement to social media, weeks after he was forced to apologise for a post which many people deemed to be negative towards Jewish people
Jamie Foxx has shared a thought-provoking statement on Instagram, just weeks after he was forced to apologise for “anti-Semitism”.
The actor, 55, sparked outrage at the start of this month when he posted: “They killed this dude name Jesus ⦠what do you think they’ll do to you???! #fakefriends #fakelove.” He later removed the post and clarified that he was talking about an unnamed close friend who had betrayed him in some way.
When he apologised shortly afterwards, he said: “I want to apologise to the Jewish community and everyone who was offended by my post. I now know my choice of words have caused offence and I am sorry. That was never my intent. To clarify, I was betrayed by a fake friend and that’s what I meant with âthey’ not anything more.
