Jamie Foxx recounted the story of when he asked his pal Snoop Dogg to ‘shake up’ his daughter’s boyfriend, in an interview promoting his new film on Tuesday.
The actor, 57, made an appearance on Capital XTRA alongside Cameron Diaz, 52, as the pair continued their promotional tour for Back In Action, which debuted on Netflix on Friday.
Asked about the respective actors’ parenting techniques, Jamie admitted he could be ‘in your face’ at times and once got West Coast rapper Snoop, 53, to intimidate his daughter Corinne’s partner.
He told the station’s Breakfast show with Robert Bruce and Shayna Marie: ‘I’m a little… I could be relaxed. But I could also be very – when it comes to my daughters and the opposite sex – I could be a little more, you know, in your face.
‘My oldest daughter, who’s married now, but when she was dating another guy, he comes over. I’d already done the background check on the dude, but Snoop happened to be there at my crib.
‘I was like, “Snoop, there he is, right there. Shake him up!” And Snoop walks over with, “Hey, what’s up? What’s happening with it? You know, if she hurt, you hurt, homie”.

Model, actress, and television producer Corinne (pictured, left, with Jamie in 2022) went on to marry Joe Hooten in September 2024 in Jamie’s home in Thousand Oaks, California
‘How great is it? So, I am visual in that perspective, but I also understand they got to be kids. You got to let them, you know, live a life. And, you know, that type of thing.’
Model, actress, and television producer Corinne went on to marry Joe Hooten in September 2024 in Jamie’s home in Thousand Oaks, California, and despite having suffered a stroke a year prior, he was able to walk her down the aisle.
When asked the same question, Cameron said: ‘I mean, I have young kids, so it’s a whole different thing. I talk to my kids, like, “You know, that’s not available. I know you really, really want it. I understand. It’s not available”.
‘But my husband always says he’s, like, “you go from zero to 100 and like that”. So, you know. Definitely, I got to work on that.’
The anecdotes come after Jamie and Cameron posed together at Cheval Three Quays near the Tower of London, on the day their movie landed on the streamer.
Oscar-winning actor Jamie donned a thick royal blue Gant turtle-neck with a large yellow ‘G’ stitched on.
The star paired it with some baggy grey trousers and black platform shoes.
Cameron, meanwhile, wore a cream jacket with sleeves rolled up and paired it with a matching pair of high-waisted cream trousers.

Last week Jamie enjoyed a star-studded evening out in London with his younger daughter Anelise, 16, as he promoted the new f
ilm.
They were pictured returning to the Chiltern Firehouse, where they may be staying, alongside the likes of Louise Redknapp and her TV writer boyfriend Drew Michael, as well as comedian Jimmy Carr.
It comes after the Ray actor revealed he thought it was a joke when doctors told him he had been out for 20 days after a stroke caused bleeding on the brain.
In Friday’s upcoming Graham Norton episode, the star speaks out about his terrifying health scare which saw him in a coma following surgery in April 2023.
Jamie said he ‘didn’t remember anything’ from the time he was rushed into A&E to when he finally came round 20 days later.
‘I was very unwell but now I am back feeling good. It makes you realise that you need people that care and love you around to get you through it.
‘I didn’t remember anything happening so when I came to 20 days later I thought I was being pranked. It was beyond crazy.’
Cameron revealed she would have been a ‘fool’ not to return to Hollywood as she explains why she is back after decade-long hiatus

He had been filming for Back In Action when he started experiencing a ‘bad headache’ in Atlanta and initially was given a cortisone shot, but his sister Deidra Dixon, ‘knew something was wrong’.
Deidra drove him to Atlanta’s Piedmont Hospital, where he underwent a life-saving procedure.
The family kept his health battle private at the time, with Jamie only revealing last month what really happened.
He previously revealed how he vividly remembers waking up from his coma on May 4, and being unable to walk.
He recalled: ‘When I woke up, I found myself in a wheelchair. I couldn’t walk.’
Yet Jamie didn’t want to believe he’d had a stroke and recounted his therapist telling him about his ego: ‘You need to kill the old Jamie so the new Jamie can thrive.’
He also reflected: ‘God blessed me with money and fame, but when I forgot about God, He blessed me with a stroke.’
Of his return to the public eye, Jamie told Graham: ‘I knew I had to get back and realised the way to do it was by being funny. I told so many jokes people thought I was mad, and then I would act as someone else – for three whole days I was Denzel Washington.’

And the Spider-Man star raised eyebrows when he jokingly declared that he’s done dating white women in a song on Netflix special, released last month.
He sang he’s been ‘cured’ and is ‘back on the black side of town’.
Sitting down at a piano, the Hollywood star sang: ‘Sisters, I’m here to tell you, I’ve been cured.
‘I’ve been cured of everything, no more white girls. I’m serious, no more white girls. No more white girls. No more. No more white girls.’
As audience members applauded and leapt out their seats, Jamie continued: ‘I’m back on the Black side of town!
‘No more white girls. No more potato salad and raisins. No more white girls. No more spray tan, no more big t*tties no ass, no more white girls.’
Jamie has had several high-profile relationships over the years with both black and white women.
He enjoyed a six-year romance with Katie Holmes from 2013 to 2019.

While many viewers were in hysterics by Jamie’s admission, they couldn’t help but question his sincerity.
Taking to X, one wrote: ‘Interesting. It took a stroke???’
Another said: ‘Jamie funny as s**t because he lying like hell LMFAOOOOO.’
A third added: ‘I don’t believe him. But I’m going to mind my business.’
Cameron, 52, is making her return to film after a decade-long hiatus.
In the comedic spy thriller Jamie and Cameron star as ex-CIA agents who are now married with kids.
They are drawn back into the spy business, however, but things get complicated because their children have no idea what they do for a living.
She said: ‘I am back all thanks to Jamie. I had 10 years of not paying attention to anything; not accepting any advances, and then I got this script and thought that maybe it was time.

‘If I was going to leave my family for 10 hours a day I wanted to do it with the most talented man in the entertainment business.
‘It is a privilege to make films, and we are all so lucky to do what we do. That the door was even open for me after a decade was amazing.
‘I loved those 10 years for me and my family, but I thought, ‘If I let this go away, if I don’t engage again, and if I don’t give it chance, I am a fool.’
‘It might be the beginning of something, but its here now and I am grateful for it.’
