Foxx was photographed and filmed signing autographs outside of Mr. Chow Tuesday night and spoke about how grateful he was to be alive to see another birthday following the near-death health scare he experienced in 2023.

“It’s beautiful because I didn’t know if I would be here to celebrate it,” he told photographers in a video post on X.

Foxx also spoke about returning to the stage for his new Netflix special, “What Happened Was,” which premiered Tuesday.

“It’s amazing, man, to have gone through something so crazy, but to get back on, make some chuckles and let other people know what’s up, was amazing,” he smiled.

The Academy Award winner got emotional during the special as he revealed that a “brain bleed that … led to a stroke” is what caused him to be hospitalized for weeks beginning in April 2023.

He also said he doesn’t remember 20 days of his time in the hospital.

“All I can tell you is that I appreciate every prayer, because I needed every prayer.”
