He’s launched skincare line Favr Skin and has some advice for aspiring entertainers: save your money. And since August is Black Business month, I must point out his entrepreneurial streak and business savvy. His song “I Do” is becoming the new wedding anthem, and he’s just released a hot new single, “Throwback.” We’ll also be seeing him in the new “House Party” reboot. But Rotimi still thinks: “I almost blew off Jamie Foxx.”īut like Jamie, Rotimi can do it all. He took him to his studio, picked his brain and learned they had a lot in common. The “ In Living Color” star invited the young Rotimi to his house to watch a few games. And he was like, ‘What’s up, bro?Look, look at me.’ And it was Jamie.” Like, You got it, bro.’ You know, I was like, ‘thank you, thank you.’ Taps me again. “He tapped me again and he was like, ‘Nah, man, I’m telling you. “So I’m in the club and some guy’s tapping me on my shoulder and is like, ‘Yo, I appreciate your work’ … I said, ‘OK, I appreciate it,’ ” he recalled.īut Rotimi, whose real name is Olurotimi Akinosho, didn’t recognize the Oscar winner. It all happened during a Golden Globes party in 2012 around the time Jamie was shooting “Django Unchained” and was sporting a scruffy beard. My “ Renaissance Man” guest Rotimi, who starred in “Coming 2 America” and played Dre on “Power” can tell you. What’s it like to be so multi-talented - to sing, dance and act so well - that Jamie Foxx approaches you in the club to compliment you, but you blow him off.
