Jamie Foxx and Annalise have several interests in common, including music and sports. The former passion was particularly important during the COVID-19 pandemic, when he quarantined with his daughters. Foxx, who, in case you forgot, is also a Grammy winner, used the opportunity to practice his own tunes with his youngest. “My 11-year-old now knows how to play the piano so well, she actually plays my songs while I sing to them,” Foxx told Entertainment Tonight in August 2020. “She said, ‘I am going on tour with you.’ I am blessed, we are all blessed.”
Music isn’t the only thing they bond over. Annalise also plays basketball and footballs — sports Foxx played in high school and could’ve done professionally. The apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree. “She’s killing it,” he said on “Live with Kelly and Ryan” in 2018. “She’s playing football with all the boys. She’s playing flag football and she’s the only girl in the league.” Her basketball skills aren’t too far behind. “Her last game before COVID, she was playing with the boys, she had 21 points, 17 rebounds, 5 blocks,” he said on “Good Morning America” in 2021.
Foxx is proud of his girl, and he’s always made sure she knows it. “When he took a phone call from his 7-year-old daughter, Annalise, he couldn’t stop telling her how smart she was, and how much he loved her,” Forbes contributor Brienne Walsh recalled in 2017.
