Jamie Foxx is not your average dad—he’s got Hollywood charisma, comedic timing, and, apparently, Snoop Dogg on speed dial for some extra dad duties. During a recent interview on Capital XTRA with Cameron Diaz to promote their Netflix film Back In Action, Foxx shared a hilarious story about the lengths he’s gone to protect his daughters’ hearts.
Jamie’s “In Your Face” Parenting Style
While Foxx admitted he tries to let his daughters live their lives, he also confessed that when it comes to their love lives, he’s more hands-on (or, as he put it, “in your face”). “I could be relaxed,” he said. “But when it comes to my daughters and the opposite sex, I could be a little more… you know, in your face.”
Case in point? When Foxx’s oldest daughter, Corinne, brought a boyfriend home, Jamie decided to add a little extra pressure—courtesy of none other than Snoop Dogg.
Snoop Steps In to “Shake Him Up”
Foxx revealed that while he’d already done his background check on the boyfriend, he saw an opportunity to make a lasting impression. “Snoop happened to be at my crib, and I was like, ‘Snoop, there he is, right there. Shake him up!’”
And, of course, Snoop delivered in his signature laid-back style. “He walks over like, ‘Hey, what’s up? What’s happening with it? You know, if she hurt, you hurt, homie.’”
It’s the kind of moment only Jamie Foxx could orchestrate—equal parts intimidating and hilarious.
A Proud Girl Dad Moment
Despite his protective streak, Foxx knows when to step back and let his daughters live their lives. Corinne eventually tied the knot with Joe Hooten in September 2024 in a stunning ceremony at Jamie’s home in Thousand Oaks, California. The event was especially meaningful as Jamie walked her down the aisle just a year after recovering from a stroke.
Foxx also recently shared a “proud father moment” at the Golden Globes, where he walked the red carpet with Corinne and his younger daughter, Anelise Bishop. On Instagram, he gushed, “Standing upright. Standing with so much love. It’s not my award. It’s my reward.”
Foxx’s Winning Fatherhood Philosophy
Jamie’s blend of humor, protection, and love shines through in his parenting style. Whether it’s calling in Snoop Dogg to “shake up” a boyfriend or proudly supporting his daughters’ achievements, he’s proving that being a girl dad is his most rewarding role yet.
