Foxx Ballistic From 'Miami Vice' Pranksters

Filed under: Universal, Celebrities and Controversy, Newsstand

FoxxAccording to the WENN, Jamie Foxx was none too pleased by a racist prank played on his stand-in on the set of Michael Mann's upcoming Miami Vice movie. The Oscar-winning Ray star insisted that two stage hands be dismissed after they approached Foxx's double, David Brown, holding nooses (suggesting the commonplace lynchings during and since slavery in America). This kind of joke is hilarious -- if you find humor in the Holocaust, laugh and point at Jerry's Kids and wistfully dream of attending a 9/11 comedy roast. Wait -- there's a name for that sort of callous jackassery. Who wrote The Count Of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers? Oh yeah -- Dumbass.
