Born as Eric Marlon Bishop, Foxx started acting in 1992. His role in ‘Collateral’ gave him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. He bagged the Academy Award for Best Actor and BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role with the role of Ray Charles in ‘Ray’. His music career took off in 1994 with the release of his first album ‘Peep This’. His track with Twista “Slow Jamz” made it to the Billboard Hot 100 in 2004. He received 4 Grammy nominations in 2006 for his album ‘Unpredictable’. He has also launched a channel on Sirius Satellite Radio called ‘The Foxxhole’.
Foxx, the actor, will be back on the silver screen by 2011. It has been reported that he is currently working on three films – ‘The Shank Robbers’ with Martin Lawrence and Halle Berry, ‘Horrible Bosses’ and ‘Rio’. All three are scheduled to hit theaters by 2011.
