LeBron James Sends Love to Jamie Foxx After His BET Awards Moment
The BET Awards always bring out the stars, but this year felt a little more personal, especially for Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James. While the night was packed with celebrities from every corner of entertainment, one emotional moment stole the spotlight — Jamie Foxx accepting the “Ultimate Icon” honor.
LeBron didn’t let that moment pass without showing some real love.
LeBron’s Salute Goes Viral
Right after Jamie Foxx gave a tearful, powerful speech about surviving his 2023 stroke, LeBron jumped on social media. On X (formerly Twitter), he shared a heartfelt message:
“BET ‘ULTIMTE ICON’!!” followed by a salute emoji.
“Love my brother and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!”
The post exploded almost instantly. Over 48,000 views in minutes, and the numbers just kept climbing. Fans were loving the shoutout, and the replies said it all.
One fan said, “Jamie Foxx is my new favorite actor. You’re so insightful @KingJames.”
Another added, “Fax King. Praying for you and your family’s health.”
Someone else simply wrote, “He has no misses.”
And of course, a Lakers fan had to sneak in a little extra motivation: “Ring 5 this year GOAT.”
A Moment That Hit Home
What made this moment hit so hard wasn’t just the award or the tribute performances. It was Jamie’s raw honesty. He opened up about his near-death experience, his stroke, and how grateful he was for a second shot at life.
LeBron clearly felt the weight of that moment. It wasn’t just a celebrity nod. It was one man showing support to another who had been through a serious battle. Two icons, two different arenas, but both showing the kind of brotherhood that fans love to see.
