"BET "ULTIMTE ICON"!!" James wrote on X with a salute emoji.
"Love my brother and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!"
The post was viewed over 48,000 times in the blink of an eye and kept rising as fans reacted to James' celebrity shoutout.
"Jamie Foxx is my new favorite actor. You're so insightful @KingJames," one fan said.
"Fax King," another added with a '100' symbol. "Praying for you and your family's health," they continued.
"I love everything Jamie Foxx is in," another fan said. "He has no misses," they added.
"Ring 5 this year GOAT," another fan said to James.
Foxx had a brain bleed in April 2023 that led to a stroke that rendered him unconscious for several weeks.
He recalled watching a memoriam of people who passed away and made a vow to make the most of his second chance after recovering from his medical challenges, in a speech that garnered tears from the audience.
