Fresh reports in the American media are indicating that the health of actor Jamie Foxx is in critical condition.

A.J. Benza, a Hollywood journalist, while appearing on “Ask Dr. Drew,” an online show told the host, Dr. Drew Pinsky’s online show, that sources close to the actor had informed him that Foxxs is “partially paralyzed and blind” as a result of a blood clot in his brain as well as suffering from other complications after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.

“Jamie had a blood clot in his brain after he got the shot. He did not want the shot, but in the movie, he was on, he was pressured to get it.

“The blood clot in the brain caused him at that point to be partially paralyzed and blind,” Benza said.

Foxx’s family and family members are yet to officially react to this development as they seem to be guiding his state of health secretly.

Foxx’s daughter, Corrine Foxx, who had been keeping the public updated on her the actor’s medical conditions from time to time, had on May 12 expressed concern about the false speculations about her dad’s health in the media.

“Sad to see how the media runs wild. My dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. He was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support! We have an exciting work announcement coming next week too!” she said.

Corrine said her father was out of the hospital and “recuperating” at a rehab centre.

Also his friend, Comedian Nick Cannon, in an interview with Extra TV, appealed against speculation about Foxx’s health and informed that the actor will update the public about his health “when he’s ready.”

“One thing I have always respected about how Jamie’s moved throughout his entire career if you’ve noticed, he’s always been somebody who is extremely professional and extremely private.

“I mean, you don’t ever really hear anything other than just the great work that he puts forth as a professional and the fact that you know, he’s handled this situation in the same manner. You only can respect that,” Cannon said.

Foxx has been battling a mysterious illness since April when he was rushed from the set of his latest movie, Netflix’s “Back in Action”. The film’s executives have had to move forward with production without Foxx, using a body double in his place.

The last time the 55-year-old actor interacted with the public was a post on Instagram when he thanked his fans for their love.

“Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed,” he wrote in an Instagram post.

Foxx made his mark acting in many films of different genres, especially action and comic ones. He won an Oscar in 2005 for his title role in “Ray”.

He was also in “The Amazing Spider-Man 2”, “Django Unchained”,
