Oscar Winner Jamie Foxx suffers from performance anxiety
Mumbai: Jamie Foxx says he suffers from performance anxiety and believes other actors and actresses go through the same.
The Hollywood star says even the best, most experienced performers feel anxious about watching themselves on screen, reported Collider.
“They're cutting the movie as it goes and that's sort of fly. I think every actor and actress has performance anxiety. We're like, 'Damn, does this look right?!” Foxx says.
In his next film, ‘Baby Driver’, the 49-year-old actor plays the part of Bats, a cohort of the movie's bank robbing crew and has already received the seal of approval from his daughter Annalise.
“He's sort of like the angry dude. He's killing everybody. My seven-year-old daughter asked me what I was doing today and I'm like, 'Killing some more people.'”
“She's cool with it. She was on the set of 'Django' before, so she understands what it is. It's sort of a familiarity with the role. But, I think the difference is how the music is playing and how it's being set up,” he says.
