Jamie Foxx enlists Snoop Dogg to warn daughter’s boyfriend: ‘If she hurt, you hurt!’
Jamie Foxx recently revealed a humorous tale of enlisting his longtime friend, Snoop Dogg, to send a protective warning to one of his daughter’s boyfriends. The actor shared the anecdote during an interview on Capital XTRA’s Breakfast Show while promoting his latest Netflix film, Back In Action, alongside co-star Cameron Diaz.
A Father’s Protective Streak
When asked about his parenting style, the Oscar-winning actor, 57, admitted he can be hands-on and protective of his daughters. Recalling one memorable encounter, Foxx said, “My oldest daughter was dating this guy. I had already done a background check on him, but Snoop happened to be at my house that day. I pointed him out to Snoop and said, ‘Snoop, there he is. Shake him up!’”
Foxx continued, imitating Snoop’s laid-back demeanor: “Snoop walks over to him and says, ‘Hey, what’s up, homie? You know, if she hurt, you hurt.’” The actor joked that the interaction left a lasting impression on the young man.
While protective, Foxx also expressed the importance of letting his children experience life on their own terms. “You have to let them live their own lives,” he added, balancing humor with a touch of sincerity.
Corinne Foxx’s Milestone Moment
Foxx’s eldest daughter, Corinne, married Joe Hooten in September 2024 in a heartfelt ceremony at Jamie’s home in Thousand Oaks, California. Reflecting on the milestone, Foxx expressed his pride in walking her down the aisle, a moment made even more significant by his recovery from a brain bleed the previous year.
Corinne, who has followed in her father’s footsteps in the entertainment industry, shares a close bond with her father. Their dynamic has been celebrated in their collaboration on projects like Beat Shazam, where the duo has showcased their fun-loving relationship.
Parenting Perspectives: Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz
Cameron Diaz, Foxx’s co-star in Back In Action, also shared her perspective on parenting during the interview. Reflecting on her approach to raising her children, Diaz said, “I talk to my kids like, ‘I understand you want that, but it’s just not available.’” She humorously admitted that her husband often teases her about going “from zero to 100” when handling situations with their children.
The interview, filled with laughter and heartfelt moments, highlighted Foxx and Diaz’s chemistry as they discussed both their professional and personal lives.
Foxx’s storytelling reminded fans of the strong familial bonds that define his life off-screen. His humorous account of Snoop Dogg stepping in as a protective “uncle” offers a glimpse into the actor’s parenting philosophy—firm yet loving, with a healthy dose of humor.
