The investigation into the assault on Jamie Foxx at a Los Angeles restaurant earlier this month continues, with police now seeking to question Jasper Dolphin, a founding member of Odd Future. The incident occurred at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills on December 13, where Foxx was celebrating his birthday with his daughters and ex-girlfriend, Kristin Grannis.
Initial reports indicated that a glass was thrown from another table ,, striking Foxx in the mouth and resulting in stitches. Further details have emerged, revealing that the altercation began due to a prank involving a laser pointer that projected a graphic image onto Foxx’s table. Unhappy with the stunt, Foxx approached the individuals responsible, which escalated into a physical confrontation.
Jasper Dolphin, who has appeared on Jackass in recent years, was reportedly at Mr. Chow that night, and police are interested in interviewing him. Currently, he is not considered a suspect or person of interest in the case.
According to sources, Foxx plans to press charges to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
In related news, Jamie Foxx recently released his special, Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was…, where he candidly discusses his health scare from April 2023, which was later revealed to be a brain bleed that led to a stroke. During the special, he addressed rampant online rumors that the incident was linked to an alleged hit by Diddy, which became a topic of discussion on Joe Rogan’s podcast in November.
Foxx humorously clarified, “The internet said that Puffy tried to kill me. That’s what the internet was saying! I know what you’re thinking – ‘Did he?’ Hell nah, n-gga. I left them parties early. I was out by 9, n-gga. Something don’t look right. It’s slippery in here.”
The comedian also joked about the bizarre rumors surrounding his health, including a reference to “1,000 bottles of baby oil” seized from Diddy’s property, adding, “If it was Puffy, he had a flaming bottle of Johnson &… I’m just kidding.”
As the investigation into the assault unfolds and Jamie Foxx continues to navigate his health and career, fans are eager to see how these developments will play out. Stay tuned for more updates on both the incident and Foxx’s ongoing projects.
