Jamie Foxx Gets Chiseled For New Role

Posted by Bossip Staff

Jamie got all cut up for his new role:

Oscar winner Jamie Foxx bit into the role of a schizophrenic musician for his latest movie The Soloist - by chiseling his perfect teeth. Foxx was determined to create a realiztic portrayal of Nathaniel Ayers, a homeless American musician who suffered from schizophrenia, so he took the tool to his mouth to mess up his good looks.

The actor explains to Maxim magazine, “I spent hours getting the nuances of the person, making him real. Something angelic happens and you actually become that person. For Nathaniel, I pushed things a bit. I lost about 20 pounds and I put a gap in my teeth. I had one (of my teeth) chipped out with a chisel. My teeth are just so big and white - a homeless person would never have them. I wanted to break up my big, shining piano keys to five them a little character. Some might think I f—ed up my grill for nothing, but I just wanted to come up with some s— to make the part unique.”

When they said chiseled, we didn’t know they were talking about his d@mn teeth. You’ll never accuse Jamie Foxx of not going the extra mile to get into character. Those things could have used a little chiseling anyway.

A big improvement for Jaimie..he has come a long way.

    HE should stay chiseled cuz he funny lookin otherwise. For some reason he seems like a hella lame to me even though i love him as an actor and comedian. He tryin too hard, or somethin is missing from his life in some way. Anyways, HE LOOK GOOD RIGHT CHEA! :D

  6. Oshie - lay down on the floor, I want the Gs and the money or everybody gotta Go

    I cannot get past Wanda when I see him, but at the same time I would let him smash it into the next century.

    So conflicted…

  9. Baby girl

  12. Baby girl

    yeah his sexy and smart and all that..BUT HE FUCKED UP HIS TEEEEEEEETH! Which im sure he would just go and pay more money to get them fixed but your TEEEEEEEEEETH!!I am just having a hard time digesting that one!

  13. Nina Knows

    He still funny looking and short.

    He has great talent,but outside of that when he’s talking it comes off as sooooo stuck up and self absorbed.

    For some reason he seems like a hella lame to me even though i love him as an actor and comedian. He tryin too hard, or somethin is missing from his life in some way

    Yep! This negro has major issues, he’s a big time male whore who has serious committment problems, he just had a baby by some Ameriaian chick, another nigga with with skin color issue when it comes to women. When I heard he had another baby I new it wasn’t with a black woman. Jamie is deeply into white, and mixed breed woman you never see him with a chacolate sista. I guess since his black mother abandoned him he pefers the other flavor.

    I like Jamie’s acting, and his body is off the hook but personally I don’t find him all that attractive, never have.

    I take pride in being able to chew things like meat, apples, candy, cement, nails. I don’t think that I’d purposely destroy my teeth for a movie role.

  16. Pynk

    He’s so talented.

  27. daughtercreole

    No! One cares about this Chick (Yes! Chick) Jamie Foxx

  28. chloe

    I saw his messed up grill in that new video excuse my hands. I thought something was up with his teeth. He is crazy for doing so. I would of told them to make me some falsies for the part. There is no way I would jack up my teeth for a movie role.

  29. Black Barbie

    Well, at least he got his hairline off his forehead! That’s something!

  30. Buttercup

    Just an ugly brotha, sorry

  31. Tashinkashae

    he is fronting he just took those veneers out of his mouth…his teeth was like that before he got big time back in the In Living Color days…jamie you ain’t got to lie to kick it

  32. futureplasticsurgeon

    @ Tashinkashae

    You’re absolutely right. I’m surprised nobody else noticed that he already had a gap and just took his veneers out for the role. I hate when people lie when it’s just so unnecessary.
