Jamie Foxx has friends in high places.
Foxx, 55, broke his silence Friday on Instagram, nearly three months after privately suffering a "medical complication" where he admitted he went to "hell and back."
"I cannot even begin to tell you how far it took me, and how it brought me back," he said after thanking fans for their prayers. "I went through something that I thought I would never, ever go through. I know a lot of people were waiting, or wanting to hear updates, and to be honest with you – I just didn't want you to see me like that."
Will Smith, The Rock, Reese Witherspoon and LL Cool J were just a few of the many Hollywood stars who left comments supporting Foxx on his road to recovery.
Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, didn't mince words on Foxx's Instagram reel, which received more than one million likes in less than 15 hours after it was posted online.
