Jamie Foxx is debunking the bizarre conspiracy theory that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs once tried to kill him.
Amid the disgraced rap mogul’s federal sex-trafficking trial, which began earlier this month, the actor, 57, poked fun at the rumors that swirled around his road to recovery after suffering a hemorrhagic stroke and a brain bleed in 2023.
While reflecting on his hospitalization, which lasted several weeks, the comedian revealed he ‘snuck in’ his phone because he had no idea ‘what the outside world was saying.’
‘I couldn’t get my mind around the fact that I had a stroke. I’m in f*****g perfect shape,’ he said during The Hollywood Reporter’s Stand-Up Comedy Roundtable.
This is when he stumbled upon the crazy allegations that ‘Puffy tried to kill’ him.

‘No, Puffy didn’t try to kill me,’ Foxx insisted, before sharing his reaction to speculation that he was ‘a clone.’
He continued: ‘When they [conspiracy theorists] said I was a clone, that made me flip. I’m sitting in the hospital bed, like, “These b***-a** mother******s are trying to clone me.” And then I saw me walk into my room, but I’m white, so I see the white me. The next morning, I said, “I know what’s up, you’re trying to clone me and make me white so I’ll sell better overseas.”’
His joke prompted a psychiatrist to ask: ‘Are you all right?’
Foxx, then, replied: ‘Am I all right or am I all white? I saw you trying to get the white motherf*****g Jamie Foxx and it ain’t going to happen.’
The psychiatrist went on to ‘calmly’ decide to ‘lower’ his dosage of medication.
Back in October 2024, a source close to Diddy insisted to DailyMail.com that ‘there is no truth to Sean Combs putting Jamie Foxx in the hospital.’
In Foxx’s Netflix special, titled What Had Happened Was…, which aired last year, he took a few swipes at Diddy.
After explaining that he suffered a stroke, caused by a bleed on the brain, Jamie explained: ‘I say this all the time, I saw the tunnel, I didn’t see the light.

‘It was hot in that tunnel. I thought, s**t, have I gone to the wrong place? I looked at the end of the tunnel and I thought I saw the devil saying come on… or was that Puffy?’
‘I’m f*****g around, but if that was Puffy he had a flaming bottle of Johnson and… no, I’m just kidding.’
In the special, Jamie also spoke about the rumors linking his 2023 health crisis to Diddy, by beginning his stand-up set with a dig at him.
‘The internet was trying to kill me, saying Puffy was trying to kill me. Hell no, I left those parties early. Something didn’t look right,’ he quipped.
‘The internet was trying to kill me,’ Foxx said, referencing the online speculation that Combs had something to do with his hospitalization. ‘The internet was saying that Puffy was trying to kill me. I know what you’re thinking… Did he?!’
‘Hell, no,’ he added with a jibe about Combs’ infamous ‘Freak Off’ parties. ‘I left them parties early. I was out by 9, n*****, something don’t look right, n*****. It looks slippery in here!’
