Jamie Foxx remains hospitalized as ‘Beat Shazam’ finds new host: report

Jamie Foxx remains hospitalized after suffering a medical emergency — and now another project is filming without him.

“Beat Shazam,” the gameshow co-hosted by Foxx and his daughter Corinne, has started filming its new season, but has found another host to replace the Oscar-winning actor, TMZ reported.

Corinne also won’t appear on the new season, as she stays by her father’s side in the Atlanta hospital where he remains.

Sources close to Jamie also told the outlet that they’re begging for prayers for his recovery.

Reps for the Foxx family and “Beat Shazam” didn’t immediately return Page Six’s requests for comment.

Jamie, 55, has been hospitalized since mid-April when he suffered what Corinne called a “medical complication” while filming “Back in Action” with Cameron Diaz.

However, the scare did not occur on the set of the movie.

The project temporarily paused filming but resumed days later with a body double for Jamie as reports emerged that he was “steadily improving.”

Two weeks later, a source told People that the “Django Unchained” actor’s health was “steadily improving” and that he was “awake and alert.”

His family has yet to disclose his diagnosis.

Nick Cannon also echoed in an interview that Jamie appeared to be recovering.

“We love it. That’s family right there,” Cannon, 42, said.

Jamie’s close friend Martin Lawrence also shared an update on the actor’s health and said he was “doing better.”

Lawrence, 58, shared his well-wishes, calling Foxx “one of the best that we got in Hollywood.”

He added, “Not only one of the best entertainers, but a good person. … My prayers go out for him every night and just wishing the best for him.”
