Jamie Foxx has won an Academy Award and a Grammy Award, laughed with sitting presidents, and partied with the biggest names in hip-hop. But he is most proud of his role as father to two very independent young women, Corinne and Anelise. Jamie might not always know what he's doing when it comes to raising girls—especially when they talk to him about TikTok (PlikPlok?) and don't share his enthusiasm for flashy Rolls Royces—but he does his best to show up for them every single day. Luckily, he has a strong example to follow: his beloved late grandmother, Estelle Marie Talley. Jamie learned everything he knows about parenting from the fierce woman who raised him: As he puts it, she's "Madea before Tyler Perry put on the pumps and the gray wig." In Act Like You Got Some Sense—a title inspired by Estelle—Jamie shares up close and personal stories about the tough love and old-school values he learned growing up in the small town of Terrell, Texas; his early days trying to make it in Hollywood; the joys and challenges of achieving stardom; and how each phase of his life shaped his parenting journey. Hilarious, poignant, and always brutally honest, this is Jamie Foxx like we've never seen him before. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York :|cGrand Central Publishing,|d2021.|nRequires OverDrive Read (file size: N/ A KB) or Adobe Digital Editions (file size: 546 KB) or Kobo app or compatible Kobo device (file size: N/A KB) or Amazon Kindle (file size: N/A KB). 650 7 Biography & Autobiography.|2OverDrive 650 7 Humor (Nonfiction).|2OverDrive 650 7 Performing Arts.|2OverDrive 650 17 Nonfiction.|2OverDrive 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 776 1 |cOriginal|z9781538703281 914 ODN0005762343
