Jamie Foxx Show, ‘Beat Shazam’, Returns for 7th Season
“I’m back for an all new season of ‘Beat Shazam,” Corinne Foxx says in the first clip of the season 7 of Beat Shazam. The camera then turns slightly to reveal her dad, Jamie smiling broadly, “Uh, yeah, and I’m back too!”
Jamie was hospitalized on April 11, 2023. The cause remains unknown, but his illness prevented him from hosting the last season of the show. Nick Cannon guest-hosted while Kelly Osbourne filled in for Corinne as the DJ.
But now the father-daughter duo are back in action and Jamie is looking in rare form!
In the show’s first look via Page Six, Jamie jogs, skips, and even thrusts across the stage, showing a vitality many feared would never return after what he’s been through.
