He is a 1986 graduate of&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.classmates.com\/places\/school\/Terrell-High-School\/1049?s=80640\">Terrell High School<\/a>, in Terrell, TX, where he was a member of the school\u2019s basketball, baseball, football, and track teams. Foxx got his show biz start in standup comedy, in 1989, when he began using his professional name (choosing \u201cFoxx\u201d as a tribute to comedian Redd Foxx). Two years later, he became a cast member of the sketch comedy series&nbsp;<em>In Living Color<\/em>. He starred in his own series,&nbsp;<em>The Jamie Foxx Show<\/em>&nbsp;(1996-2001), for which he was also its creator, director, and executive producer. Foxx began concentrating more on film roles after that. One of his biggest performances to date is the title role in 2004\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Ray<\/em>, for which he received many awards (including his first Oscar). Other notable films include&nbsp;<em>Any Given Sunday<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Collateral<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Jarhead<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Dreamgirls<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>The Soloist<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>Django Unchained<\/em>. Foxx is only the second male in Oscar history to receive two acting nominations for two different films (<em>Ray<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Collateral<\/em>) in the same year. He has also found time for a successful music career and has released four top 10 albums thus far. Foxx was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Awards (partial list):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Academy Award for&nbsp;<strong>Best Actor<\/strong>&nbsp;for&nbsp;<em>Ray<\/em>. 2004<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>American Music Award for&nbsp;<strong>Favorite R&amp;B\/Soul Male Artist<\/strong>. 2006<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>BAFTA Award for&nbsp;<strong>Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role<\/strong>&nbsp;for&nbsp;<em>Ray<\/em>. 2005<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Golden Globe for&nbsp;<strong>Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture \u2013 Musical or Comedy<\/strong>for&nbsp;<em>Ray<\/em>. 2005<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grammy Award for&nbsp;<strong>Best R&amp;B Performance by a Duo or Group<\/strong>&nbsp;for \u201cBlame It\u201d (with T-Pain). 2010<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grammy Award for&nbsp;<strong>Best Rap Solo Performance<\/strong>&nbsp;for \u201cGold Digger\u201d (with Kanye West). 2006<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Screen Actors Guild Award for&nbsp;<strong>Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role<\/strong>&nbsp;for&nbsp;<em>Ray<\/em>. 2005<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Soul Train Award for&nbsp;<strong>Best R&amp;B\/Soul Album, Male<\/strong>&nbsp;for&nbsp;<em>Unpredictable<\/em>. 2007<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Source: Wikipedia<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jamie Foxx Actor, Singer, Songwriter, Comedian Birthdate:&nbsp;Dec 13, 1967 High School:&nbsp;Terrell High School Yearbooks:&nbsp;1984 Yearbook photos of Jamie Foxx from&nbsp;Terrell High School &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Jamie Foxx&nbsp;(born Eric Morlon Bishop on December 13, 1967) is an actor, singer, songwriter, and comedian.
