A representative for Jamie Foxx has addressed an independent journalist's claim that a COVID vaccine booster led to the "medical complication" that landed the actor in the hospital.
The rep said the report is "completely inaccurate" in a statement to NBC News. Representatives for Foxx did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
A.J. Benza, a celebrity reporter once famous on the New York tabloid scene, first made the assertion during his May 30 appearance on "Ask Dr.
Drew." Benza told Dr. Drew that he had a source "inside" the room with Foxx who told him the "Django Unchained" actor was left "partially paralyzed and blind" after being "pressured" into getting the COVID booster shot ahead of filming a new movie.
