Jamie Foxx Out Of Hopsital “For Weeks” According To Daughter

by

Jamie Foxx has finally left hospital nearly a month after suffering a medical emergency on set. The news comes from Foxx’s daughter, Corinne, via Instagram. “Update from the family: Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support!”. Foxx was originally hospitalized on April 11 after collapsing on the set of his new Netflix film, Back In Action.

The news comes as something of a surprise, given that the latest reports from “sources close to the situation” indicated the complete opposite. As recently as May 11, outlets were reportedly being told by sources that Foxx’s family was preparing for the worst. However, Corinne Foxx’s message may point to the media’s overeagerness to report on the situation.

Foxx’s Hospitalisation Plagued With Conflicting Accounts

Everyone from TMZ to PEOPLE reportedly has a source “close to Foxx” who has been feeding them information ever since he was hospitalized. However, the battle for exclusives has created a confusing and contradictory timeline. Foxx’s Instagram posts for the first time since his hospitalization, only for Kevin Hart to say that nothing’s changed. One person tells PEOPLE he’s in stable condition on May 7, only for Radar Online to claim his family is “preparing for the worst” on May 10.

Additional fuel has been thrown on the fire by the fact that no images of Foxx has emerged. His family has chosen not to release any during updates, including in Corinne’s latest post. This has led some fans to question whether his family are attempting to deflect media speculation as Foxx continues to struggle. Regardless, it’s wonderful to hear a positive update from someone so close to Foxx. We at HotNewHipHop hope he recovers fully and quickly and that there is more good news to report soon.

Damar Hamlin’s Breathing Tube Removed Amid Hospital Recovery

by

A new health update has been released for Buffalo Bills star Damar Hamlin following his collapse at the beginning of this past Monday’s NFL game. 

The 24-year-old was intubated and placed in the intensive care unit after suffering a heart attack on the field. But now, Hamlin is recovering without the breathing tube, his team revealed on Friday morning (Dec. 6). 

He’s also able to talk with loved ones after previously having to communicate by writing messages on a clipboard.

“Per the physicians at UCMC, Damar’s breathing tube was removed overnight. He continues to progress remarkably in his recovery,” the Buffalo Bills confirmed via their Twitter. “His neurologic function remains intact and he has been able to talk to his family and care team.”

Hamlin awoke this past Wednesday and was also able to move his hands and feet. After asking who won the game against the Cincinnati Bengals, doctors responded back, “Yes, Damar, you won. You won the game of life.”

Monday’s game was postponed shortly after the Pennsylvania native’s medical emergency during the first quarter. Sports commentator Skip Bayless faced backlash after some accused him of an insensitive tweet in the wake of Hamlin’s frightening collapse.

“No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game – but how?” he wrote on Twitter Monday night. “This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome … which suddenly seems so irrelevant.”

After catching heat online, he went on to address the situation on “Undisputed,” with co-host Shannon Sharpe urging him to delete the now-viral tweet. Refusing, Bayless firmly shot back on the Fox Sports show, “I stand by what I tweeted.”

A number of athletes responded to the 71-year-old on social media, including NBA star Isaiah Thomas. “I hope they fire you bro!!! For you to even THINK of the game is very sad,” he tweeted at Bayless earlier this week.

Darrell Revis also wrote back in response. “All u care about is football when Damar Hamlin’s life is at risk. coming from u i expected more. this tweet is not. u of all people should know better bro,” the famed NFL cornerback tweeted.

As of now, Bayless has stayed true to his word in not deleting the controversial tweet.

After being a victim of a recent snow plow accident and being rushed to the intensive care unit, actor Jeremy Renner offered his fans and loved ones an update while in a hospital bed. 

Sharing a selfie with bruises covering his face, Renner revealed on Instagram Tuesday that he’s “too messed up now to type.” But he thanked everyone for their support nonetheless.

“Thank you all for your kind words,” the Hurt Locker actor wrote, adding, “Im too messed up now to type. But I send love to you all.”

Several celebrities entered his comments to lend their support. Fellow Avengers star Chris Hemsworth wrote underneath the post, “Speedy recovery buddy. Sending love your way!”

Chris Evans added, “Tough as nails. Love you buddy.” 

Sending his love, Chris Evans also commented. “Continued prayers your way brutha,” the Guardians of the Galaxy actor wrote, adding a heart emoji.

According to the Reno-Gazette Journal, the 51-year-old was run over by a snow plow after it began to roll near his property. Renner was reportedly helping someone remove their car from the snow shortly before the accident occurred.

Revealing that foul play is not believed to be a factor in this case, Sheriff Darin Balaam shared about the incident in a recent press conference, “An eyewitness detailed seeing Mr. Renner getting into the PistenBully and not seeing him again until the Pistenbully came to rest in a pile of snow in front of his driveway,” continuing, “We believe this is a tragic accident.”
