Kanye West wants Jamie Foxx to act as him in a movie

West, who is also a fashion designer, has taken a break from the controversy surrounding his "White Lives Matter" shirt to address himself on Instagram. While on social media, he asked his followers who should play him in a biographical picture (biopic).

However, as his followers responded, West gave his own opinion on who should play him in a biopic and insisted Foxx, 54, would be best to portray the life and times of Ye (which is West’s alias) .

“My pick is Jamie Foxx,” Ye expressed. “[To act as] One of the greatest genius (sic).”

In the past few days, Foxx has weighed in on the subject of Black Lives Matter, having uploaded a post regarding the same.

Foxx posted a heartfelt tribute to the Black Lives Matter movement amid West’s “White Lives Matter” controversy shaking up the Internet.

Foxx wrote about how “the narrative of Black Lives Matter has been twisted.”

“I’m sitting here reflecting on the moment when George Floyd was killed,” Foxx shared. “I remember how the entire world was affected by this senseless, brutal murder captured on film. I remember how we all felt, no matter what color you were. This was the worst display of human behaviour,” he said.

He added that “one media post” can’t take away what it [Black Lives Matter] truly represents: “the goodness in our world.”

“The narrative of Black Lives Matter has been twisted, taken advantage of, and 1 million other things as social media tends to do. But I refuse to believe that the whole world had it wrong and all of this was in vain. One media post can almost make you forget what happened but let’s not forget the goodness in our world is depending on it,” Foxx said, adding the BLM hashtag in conclusion.

West would probably be of a different view to the view that Foxx shared.
