He continued, “And I don’t want to blow the moment ’cause it was heartfelt. She said, ‘Jamie, oh my God!’ And she hugged me. I said, ‘Ooh, oh my gosh.’ She said. ‘There’s so much I wanted to tell you!’ And I said, ‘There’s so much I gotta tell you!’ Cause she was hugging me, and I’m like, ‘Oh my God. Please don’t let me disrespect this moment.’
Foxx added, “So I had to relay… cause the hug was so nice, I had to relay my pickle. ‘Hey, stand down, n***a. This ain’t that kind of hug’… He shot back, N***a, that’s Halle Berry!”
