See a teaser for Jamie Foxx’s new Netflix special “What Had Happened Was” where he appears to address the big health scare that left him hospitalized in 2023.

Jamie Foxx has opened up in a new Netflix special about the illness that left him hospitalized last year and unable to remember a 20-day period from April to May 2023. Foxx, 56, shared in his Netflix special — 'Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was...' released on Dec. 10 — that he suffered 'a brain bleed that led to a stroke.' He said that on April 11, 2023, he began experiencing a bad headache and asked a friend for an aspirin.

'Your life doesn't flash before your face,' he said. 'It's kind of oddly peaceful. I say this all the time, I saw the tunnel, I didn't see the light.' The doctor then came out after surgery and said that they didn't find what caused the brain bleed but did confirm he was having one, Foxx said. 'He may be able to make a full recovery, but it's going to be the worst year of his life,' Foxx said the doctor relayed to his sister.
