Fluff with detail is how we describe those Parade profiles. This one is on Jamie Foxx who, he claims, went up on the comedy stage for the first time on a dare from a girlfriend.
Within a year and a half, he had left college, dropped his birth name and invented “Jamie Foxx” as his standup moniker. “The way I looked at the whole situation was, if I fail as Jamie Foxx, I’ll just change my name and come back as something else.”
The entire interview will go up on the Parade website on the 7th of November.
