If I Fail As Jamie Foxx, I'll

I Love Music. I've Always Wanted To Do Music, Even When I Started Out As A Comedian.

I'm Bad On Valentine's Day, But Even Worse On Christmas. I Go Shopping At Nine O'clock On December 24th Every Year. Nobody Else Is There. I'm In Toys'r'us All By Myself. I Get There Five Minutes Before Closing.

I Didn't Have A Knee-jerk Reaction Like Some People Did To The Language And The Violence. My Stepfather Was A History Teacher At Lincoln High School In Dallas. So, I Was Already Familiar With The N-word And The Brutality Of Slavery. What I Was Drawn To Was The Love Story Between Django And Broomhilda And How He Defends And Gets The Girl In The End. I Thought It Was Just An Amazing And Courageous Project.

When You Sing R&b Songs In Front Of An Audience, You Look Out And There's 85% Women. I Think R&b Music Is Sort Of Designed For A Man Singing To A Woman. I Don't Sing It Like The Sexy Thing, But Sort Of Pseudo-sexy. We Rally The Women Together Because It's About Being Independent And Things Like That.

I Really Wanted To Just Be A Musician. I Didn't Want To Be Anything Else, But I Was Funny And All That.
