Jamie Foxx

2. His real name is Eric Morlon Bishop but understandably changed it to Jamie Foxx to help him progress in the world of showbiz.
3. Jamie was only the second actor in history to receive two Oscar nominations in the same year for two different movies. In case you were wondering, the first was Al Pacino.
