Fans only want to know about Jamie Foxx's health progress amid his continued hospitalization.
There has been an increasing concern over the multihyphenate's health since his family announced that he had been taken to the hospital after experiencing a "medical complication." Although other celebs, including Kevin Hart, have shared updates on his condition, fans showed that they only wanted to hear from his daughter when they took to the comments section of her recent social media post to make demands.
Jamie Fox's New Ad Campaign With Corinne Sparked A Debate About His Whereabouts & Health
A new Intel Evo ad featuring Jamie and his daughter Corrine has sparked a reaction from concerned members of the former's fanbase. In the campaign shared in an Instagram post by Corrine, he appears confused by some wires on a table attempting to transfer photos from his phone to his laptop.
While the clip finished with the optimistic note of his daughter coming to his rescue, the comments told a different tale. "ðððððððð hope the legend is doing good," one fan immediately queried.
"Can you give us more of an update?" another question read, with a third reading, "Please tell us what happened??" Meanwhile, this frustrated fan asked, "Will you tell us what's going on and if he will get better? I don't know why it's a secret. Hope you are doing well; love you both on @shazam."
A fifth Instagram user added, "I think the people would like to [sic] know how he is doing in real life." Yet another supporter pointed out, "We out here praying for your amazing father's health that so many of us grew up with loving all that he is. Sending blessings upon blessings."
Before the demand from fans, The Blast reported that Hart had revealed that Jamie's condition had seen "a lot of progressions [s]," indicating that the "Blame It" singer's condition was improving.
However, the "Central Intelligence" actor disclaimed that he was aware of the "exact details" of the illness despite his bond with the 55-year-old. He says, "They're being tight âĶ about where he is because Jamie's always been a private person to a certain degree."
The renowned comic star added, "Everybody's prayers, love, energy â all that stuff is seen and felt. In this case, man, you want the guy to escape the situation and return home."
Another star, who has spoken out since Jamie became hospitalized, was first-ballot Hall of Famer Lebron James, who wrote, "Sending my thoughts and prayers to the heavens above to my brother @iamjamiefoxx!!!! Get well and back to yourself SOONER THAN LATER! God willing."
Kerry Washington, who played the Satellite Awards winner's love interest in "Ray" and "Django Unchained," also posted a photo of her and her longtime pal hugging alongside a poignant message that read:
"A @iamjamiefoxx appreciation post. Sending you all the love and prayers my movie huzbin."
Similarly, Jamie's other on-screen wife, Garcelle Beauvais, wished him well, writing, "This is an appreciation post for my friend @iamjamiefoxx ðĪJ I love you so much !!!"

Fans got a glimmer of hope amid Jamie's health problems when he seemingly returned to social media to thank his fans for their prayers and support. In a typed-out message on a black background shared via Instagram, he told his 16.3 million followers, "Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed."
The comment section immediately went wild, with numerous people expressing joy to hear from him, even though it was not a live update. "Get well; you scared the shiiit out of us. We already lost Jerry Springer. We can't afford to lose Ray Charles right now," one comment read.
A second comment declared, "What a relief to see a post. Sending prayers up for you." However, one cynical person wrote, "That wasn't Jamie..... it was just to calm the fans down! I won't believe it until they stop be [sic] quiet about this!"
ICYMI, The Blast noted that Corrine announced her father's hospitalization on the family's behalf in a social media post with the text, "We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery."
The "Safety" actress has since deleted the Instagram post.
