Last week, Jamie Foxx (who was spotted leaving the club this past weekend) became a member of the growing club of celebrities who have naked photos leaked on the internet. The singer/actor’s “goods” was posted on a popular gossip site and reportedly had the star PISSED OFF:
Foxx was ‘pissed’ when he learned that these naked photos surfaced on the net and lawyer sent a seething letter [to the website] demanding that the photos be taken down. The lawyer claimed that the photo was in connection to a movie role for which Jamie is currently preparing. The website has since removed the photo.
Jamie has a teenage daughter (Corrine, 15) which is definitely embarrassing, considering that her friends have access to the internet and most likely saw the photo.
Up next for Jamie? The movie ‘Law Abiding Citizen’ expected to hit theaters later on this year.
