Jamie Foxx Quotes
How is it that Jamie Foxx has a net worth of $150 Million? These quotes by the actor may indicate the character traits that led to his financial situation:
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 went to college on a classical piano scholarship. My grandmother made me practice one full hour a day. Every day. Man. I thought all she wanted was for me not to have any fun. Next thing you know, you have a career in music. Now, not everybody's going to go on and be Mozart or Michael Jackson. But music makes you smarter.

Then I was playing the piano at eight, and that helps you learn about women because most of the people I was playing for were women.

Nobody wants to hear R&B. It's sad. If you want to be on the radio you got to stay young.

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.
