That's not too surprising because Jamie Foxx can do anything. But Foxx revealed that he recently talked with the Hangover co-star who said he had finally found happiness. When Foxx asked him how, he said it was because he didn't have any money.
Kelly Ripa and Michael Strayhan had Jamie Foxx on last week and Foxx had a few things to say about the former heavyweight champ (ABC News):
"If you've seen Ray, the man can totally transform on screen."
In fact, Foxx, 46, told Kelly Ripa onLive with Kelly and Michael' today that he hopes to someday portray his friend Mike Tyson in a movie:
"'I got a chance to hang out with Mike when Mike was at his height, and I watched Mike Tyson go from his height to where he is now, and I talked to Mike about doing his story... And I said, 'Mike, how do you feel? [Tyson said] 'I'm happy. God bless Allah, my brother.'...
"I said, 'Why are you happy?' [Tyson said]'I don't have any money. So I'm very happy. No one's trying to take anything from me,' Foxx revealed... 'And it broke my heart when I heard him say that,'... [Tyson] says, 'When I had money, and I was doing bad stuff too, but everybody was all over me.' He said, 'All I wanted to do is box and fall in love.' So I think that story would be fantastic.'"
