Jamie Foxx returned to Instagram with a short message for his fans three weeks after it was revealed that he’d been hospitalized due to a medical emergency.
In a May 3 post to his profile, the 55-year-old actor thanked his Instagram followers for their support, writing, “appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed.”
In the comments section of the post, the actor’s circle of friends and followers offered well wishes.
Rappers DJ Khaled and Ludacris expressed with emojis that they were praying for the “Just Mercy” star.
“Hey bro,” AJ McLean of the Backstreet Boys wrote. “My man (you’re) in my prayers day and night, bro. Let’s get you better and home.”
“Yesssss!!!! Take all the time you need bro!!!!” added “Saturday Night Live” star Kenan Thompson.

“His condition was serious enough that Jamie’s family, some of whom were not in town, came to the hospital,” the representative commented, noting that Foxx was awake and talking.

The statement also shared that Kelly Osbourne will fill in for Corinne Foxx, who appears alongside her father in the series as a DJ.
According to Deadline, “Beat Shazam” will return on May 23.
