Jamie Foxx is Back in Action!
According to TMZ on Friday, the iconic actor is getting back to business after his mystery health scare earlier this year. Sources told the outlet that he shot a brand new commercial for BetMGM on Wednesday at the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. The insiders dished that he didn’t show any signs of slowing down! Such great news to hear considering he spent nearly four months in rehab after his mystery health issue.
In the commercial, which will air right before the NFL season kicks off, the 55-year-old Oscar winner is sitting in the cockpit of a golden Formula One car. This isn’t going to be his only ad, though! The sports betting company reports he’s going to be starring in their commercials from the upcoming football season and beyond as a new face for the company’s advertisements.

We still don’t have much information on what exactly happened, but there’s been a lot of speculation as to what sent the Ray star to the hospital. It was a serious situation, and was reported to be life-threatening at the time, but we’re so glad to see it didn’t knock him down. He’s back and ready to keep going. Love, love, love it!
We continue to send light and healing to Jamie, his family, and his loved ones. Reactions, Perezcious readers?
