Common, Jamie Foxx Share Worst Christmas Moments
Musicians/actors Common and Jamie Foxx both have flourishing careers so it goes without saying that this holiday season they have more than enough to be thankful for. But just like everybody else, sometimes they too have gotten gifts that they weren't too happy about.
"The worst gift I've gotten is some socks that somebody gave me," Common told the BoomBox. "That's a gift you give to your uncle or your step father or something. I got some socks from a lady friend of mine a while ago, and I thought that was real weak. The lady could've come up with something better. I'd have enjoyed a more creative gift than that."
Funny man Jamie Foxx's worst gift came at the hands of a friend who couldn't wait to for him to open it. "The worse present I ever gotten [was] some cookies," he says. " I'm not [going to] say who it was from but I got some cookies and somebody had already eaten some of the cookies! It was like six cookies and I'm like you couldn't go get some other cookies and get theirs and leave mine alone?"
If you're looking for a nice gift to give this holiday season be sure to pick up Jamie's album 'Intuition' and Common's 'Universal Mind Control' both in stores now.
