First Lady Melania Trump has reportedly gone "ballistic" following an explosive revelation made by actor Jamie Foxx during a live interview. The incident has taken social media by storm, with fans and critics alike reacting to Foxx’s bold comments about Donald Trump and the apparent fallout with Melania.
The moment occurred during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where Foxx, known for his candid nature, was discussing his new film and personal life. The conversation took an unexpected turn when Ellen DeGeneres brought up Foxx’s thoughts on the current state of politics, specifically mentioning Donald Trump’s controversial presidency.
Foxx, never one to hold back, didn’t hesitate to share his honest opinion. "I’ll say this, Trump was a showman, and his time in office was a reality show," Foxx said, drawing laughs from the audience. "But the way he handled everything—especially when it came to matters of race and division—was a disaster. People got hurt. And his influence has left a scar on this country that we may never fully recover from."
Foxx's remarks didn’t stop there. "People talk about his wealth and his power, but what people don’t realize is that he used that power to divide us, not unite us," Foxx continued. "And Melania was right there next to him, endorsing everything he did. There’s no hiding that." The comments were bold and cutting, and Foxx didn’t mince words as he described his disdain for the former president’s actions and rhetoric.
As the clip of the interview quickly went viral, sources close to Melania reported that she was “furious” after hearing Foxx’s remarks. "She’s upset, really upset," an insider revealed. "Melania is already dealing with a lot of scrutiny and public attention, and Foxx’s comments only made things worse. She feels like he crossed a line, and she is not happy about it."
Melania, who has generally kept a low profile since leaving the White House, was reportedly seen "livid" after watching the interview. "She’s been trying to distance herself from the political mess left by her husband’s presidency, but Foxx’s words brought it all back," the source added. "It’s hard for her to stay silent when people are attacking her and her family."
In the wake of Foxx’s comments, social media exploded with reactions, many of which echoed Foxx’s sentiments about Trump’s leadership. Fans of the actor praised him for speaking out against the former president, with some even calling Foxx "brave" for calling Trump and Melania out in such a public manner.
