Cameron Diaz was blown away as Jamie Foxx gave a flawless impression of Donald Trump — and then Will Smith and Jay-Z, in the span of a few minutes.
Diaz and Foxx, who costar in the Netflix action-comedy Back in Action out Friday, appeared on the Complex YouTube series “GOAT Talk,” where Diaz, 52, challenged the Ray actor, 57, to give his best impersonations.
Without hesitation, Foxx recalled a recent moment when he ran into Jay-Z at a party and couldn’t stop himself from showing the Grammy winner his best impression of him.
“I was going, ‘Nice party,’ ” Foxx told Diaz, evoking Jay-Z’s restrained register and sending Diaz into fits of laughter.

But Foxx didn’t stop there. Moments later, he showed off a spot-on Trump impression, going, “There’s a lot of great people on both sides” (in reference to the President-elect’s controversial 2017 quote about a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va.).
Foxx continued with the impression of Trump: “I love Cameron. I love Cameron — she’s great. I love all of her movies. I love Charlie’s Angels,” he said in Trump’s distinct tone, before concluding with a snippet of his Will Smith voice.
Diaz was floored by his accuracy, remarking in the video that it was “the best Trump” impression she had ever seen. “I noticed when you do impressions, your eyes change. Like, I actually see the person in your eyes. It’s wild,” she said. “I have zero impressions that I can do. I’m not an impersonator in any way or form.”
“When you’re doing the impersonation, you’ve got to feel the person,” responded the Just Mercy actor.
This isn’t the first time Foxx has dazzled with his uncanny ability to impersonate. Back in 2015, during an appearance on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon challenged the Oscar winner to a “Wheel of Musical Impressions” — where he had to perform an unusual song choice in the voice of a famous singer on the spot.
First, he channeled Mick Jagger, giving a lively rendition of The Lion King’s “Hakuna Matata,” before launching into a John Legend version of the Toys”R”Us jingle. He concluded the appearance by bringing down the house with a stellar performance of “On Top of Spaghetti” in the voice of his Dreamgirls costar Jennifer Hudson.

Back in Action marks the third time Foxx and Diaz are sharing the screen, after previously appearing together in 1999’s Any Given Sunday and 2014’s Annie. It also marks the There’s Something About Mary star’s return to film after she took some time off from acting in 2014 to focus on her family.
In 2022, a source close to Diaz told PEOPLE that the actress felt “a bit rusty and nervous,” though “mostly excited,” about her comeback — adding that her husband, Benji Madden, had “encouraged her to unretire.”
“She is ready to tackle this movie project,” the source said.
Back in Action will be available to stream on Netflix on Jan. 17.
