Read Full BioEric Morlon Bishop, Jr. (born December 13, 1967 in Terrell, Texas), better known by his stage name Jamie Foxx, is an Academy Award winning actor, Grammy Award winning multi-platinum selling R&B singer, and critically acclaimed comedian. As a singer he has three multi-platinum releases; 1994’s Peep This, 2005’s Unpredictable and 2008’s Intuition. His fourth studio album, Best Night of My Life, will be released December 21. Foxx received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on September 14, 2007. He is perhaps best known for playing Ray Charles in the movie Ray and being featured on Kanye West’s hit single Gold Digger.
One of the most popular African-American comedians of the late 1990s, TV star turned screen actor Jamie Foxx first became known for his many roles on Keenen Ivory Wayans’ long-running comedy variety show In Living Color. Since then, Foxx has played both raucous and sensitive nice-guy roles in a number of films, and earned particular acclaim for his portrayal of a talented but egotistical quarterback in Oliver Stone’s Any Given Sunday.
Born Eric Bishop in the small town of Terrell, Texas, on December 13, 1967, Foxx was raised by his grandparents after his parents separated. He enjoyed a happy upbringing, going to church every day with his grandparents and excelling at everything from academics to music to football. During his teen years he had his first taste of the entertainment business as his church’s choir director and music director, and also started his own R&B band. Foxx studied music while a student at the U.S. International University in San Diego; it was during his college days that he got his start as a stand-up comedian. Attending a comedy club one night with some friends, he was encouraged to take the stage and perform some impersonations, which proved incredibly popular with the audience. Foxx’s enthusiastic reception led to his decision to move to L.A. and pursue a comedy career. At the age of 22 he was hired for In Living Color, and he subsequently landed a recurring role on Charles Dutton’s sitcom Roc in 1985.
Foxx was ultimately given his own show in 1996; that same year, he appeared in a supporting role in The Truth About Cats and Dogs, which cast him as a friend of Ben Chaplin. He was also featured in the boxing satire The Great White Hype, and the following year he got star billing opposite fellow comedian Tommy Davidson in the poorly received comedy Booty Call. After playing a DJ in Ice Cube’s The Players Club (1998), Foxx earned some of his best reviews to date for his role in Any Given Sunday (1999). He subsequently returned to straight comedy, starring in Antoine Fuqua’s crime comedy Bait as an ex-con trying to mend his ways, and as a man caught in a convenience stored robbery in Held Up.
In 2001, Foxx was given an opportunity to again flex the dramatic chops he displayed in Any Given Sunday with a role as Drew Bundi Brown in Michael Mann’s biopic Ali. Then, after a role in the barely seen 2003 Sylvester Stallone drama Shade, Foxx embarked on his busiest year yet. 2004 saw him star in no fewer than four films, the most noteworthy of them being the thriller Collateral. The tense summer flick not only saw Foxx again under the direction of Mann, but cast on an equal level with Hollywood uber-star Tom Cruise. His turn as a hapless cab driver who is forced into a menacing partnership slowly advancing Foxx’s dramatic screen presence, the role served as proof to many that his talents extended well beyond what many may have suspected. When it was announced shortly thereafter that Foxx would be donning the trademark sunglasses to essay the role of legendary blues pianist Ray Charles in Director Taylor Hackford’s eagerly anticipated biopic Ray, it was only a matter of time before audiences found out how deep Foxx’s talents as an actor truly ran. So effective was Foxx in recreating Charles’ unique style and unmistakable visage that many critics speculated an Oscar nomination may be in calling for the one-time funnyman turned dramatic powerhouse. When the star-studded evening in February did finally arrive and the envelope that would reveal the best actor of 2005 was breathlessly opened, Foxx did indeed take the prize — raising already stratospheric expectations regarding his future career to a fever pitch.
Foxx subverted expectations by capitalizing on his Oscar win with an R&B album that garnered respectable reviews and solid sales. He returned to films in the summer action flop Stealth — in a supporting role to would-be superstar Josh Lucas — and appeared as a leader of men in Sam Mendes’ Gulf War film Jarhead. In 2006 he reteamed with Michael Mann, starring as Tubbs in the big-screen adaptation of Miami Vice. Late in the year, he starred in the much-anticipated adaptation of the musical Dreamgirls, opposite fellow actor-musicians hyphenates Eddie Murphy and Beyoncé Knowles. He is also known for his big leading role in Law Abiding Citizen.

Jamie Foxx Lyrics
Blame it on the Goose (Goose)
Gotcha feelin' loose (loose)
Blame it on the 'Tron ('Tron)
Got you in the zone (zone)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Hey she say she usually don't (don't, don't)
But I know that she frontin' (frontin', frontin')
'Cause shawty know what she want (want, want)
But she don't wanna seem like she easy
I hear you sayin' what ya won't do (won't do, won't do)
But you know we probably goin' do (gon' do, gon do')
What you been fiendin' deep inside (don't lie now)
Girl what you drinkin'?
Gon' let sink in
Here for the weekend, thinkin' we can
See what we can be if we press press forward
Just one more round and you're down, I know it
Fill another cup up
Feelin' on yo butt, what?
You don't even care now
I was unaware how fine you was
Before my buzz set in
My buzz set in
Blame it on the Goose (Goose)
Gotcha feelin' loose (loose)
Blame it on the 'Tron ('Tron)
Got you in the zone (zone)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the vodka (ayy)
Blame it on the Henny (ayy)
Blame it on the blue tap (ayy)
Gotcha feelin' dizzy (ayy, dizzy)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Oopsie
She spilled some drank on me (on me, on me)
And now I'm knowin' she's tipsy (tipsy, tipsy)
She put her body on me
And she keep starin' me right in my eyes
No tellin' what I'm gon' do (gon' do, gon' do)
Baby I would rather show you (show you, show you)
What you been missin' in your life when I get inside
Girl what you drinkin'?
Gon' let sink in
Here for the weekend, thinkin' we can
See what we can be if we press fast forward
Just one more round and if you're down, I'm pourin'
Fill another cup up
Feelin' on yo butt, what?
You don't even care now, I was unaware how
Fine you was before my buzz set in
My buzz set in
Blame it on the Goose (Goose)
Gotcha feelin' loose (loose)
Blame it on the 'Tron ('Tron)
Got you in the zone (zone)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the vodka (ayy)

Girl, I know you feel good
Just like you look (look), couple more shots
You open up like a book, I ain't trippin ('cause I'ma read ya)
Shawty, I ain't trippin' (I jus' wanna please ya)
I'ma take a shot of Nuvo, shawty, didn't you know
It's goin' down, we can go and kick it like Judo (Judo)
You know what I mean
Shawty got drunk, thought it all was a dream
So I made her say I, I
Now she got her hand on my legs
Got my seats all wet in my ride (all wet in my ride)
All over my ride (all over my ride)
She look me dead in the eye, eye-eye
Then my pants got bigger
She already knew what to figure
Had her lookin' at her boyfriend like, "Fuck, that nigga"
Blame it on the juice (Goose)
Gotcha feelin' loose (loose)
Blame it on the 'Tron ('Tron) (oh-ooh woah)
Got you in the zone (zone)

Gotcha feelin' dizzy (ayy, dizzy)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol (alcohol)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Now to the ballers poppin' bottles (ayy)

Screamin, "Money ain't a thing", if it ain't (ayy)

@Nicole Reese it's not about rape..... it's about drinking too much and doing something you regret.....
Ppl want to make it about rape because of how soft ppm are now of days, I was in college when this came out I was 25ish, and many times I end up with some chick I'd never fuck because of drinking too much, and I'd bounce out and ghost her.
That'd all this song is about, the times when you were young and drank too much. Ppl now of days can't admit they did something stupid and blame things on rape...
It's sad because back in the early 2001 is girls got snatched off the street and beaten and raped...REAL RAPE. But dumb women like to think drinking too much and regretting have sex with someone is rape.
Song is about being irresponsible that's it( because of alcohol)
People now of days are bunch of cry babies who have ZERO personal responsibility
