Jamie Foxx is the latest big name to get his five minutes in the film “’Valentine’s Day.” Foxx was spotted filming on location in Studio City, CA. Lookin’ good, Jamie!

Jamie Foxx got into his part as a newshound while filming “Valentines Day” on location on Hollywood Blvd., Los Angeles, CA. It seems like half of Hollywood is in the ensemble film.

Jamie Foxx has already apologized for his lewd and inappropriate remarks about Miley Cyrus on his radio show, but her daddy still isn’t ready to forgive and forget.

US Weekly reports Billy Ray Cyrus appeared on the “Bonnie Hunt Show” and had some harsh words for Foxx. “It was hurtful. There wasn’t nothing funny about it. And, quite frankly, I think if I said those things about his daughter, he might not find it so comedic.”

Who could blame him? So-called “comics” like Foxx need to learn that making sexual comments about underage girls is not only in bad taste, it can get you into trouble.

You would think that a big star who has a new movie coming out that’s predicted to tank would be frantically trying to promote it and make himself look good. But instead, Jamie Foxx landed himself in the spotlight by making inappropriate sexual comments about a 16-year-old girl. Way to go, Jamie.

Foxx launched an on-air tirade on his Sirius radio show this weekend, suggesting that Miley Cyrus “make a sex tape and grow up… Get like Britney Spears and do some heroin… get some crack in your pipe.” Wonder what he’d do if someone make comments like that to his own teenage daughter?

Someone at Camp Foxx must have convinced him that he was not winning the public’s affection, so when he went on “The Tonight Show” to promote his film “The Soloist,” the comic actor issued a grudging apology.

E! reports how Foxx’s answered host Jay Leno’s query, “Did you say something inappropriate?”

“Yeah. I so apologize to [Cyrus], and this is sincere. I am a comedian, and you guys know that whatever I say, I don’t mean any of it. [Big laugh from the audience]. And sometimes, as comedians, as we do, we go a little bit too far.

“I have a radio show…We’re really the black Howard Stern. We go at everybody. There was a situation with Miley Cyrus, and I just want to say, I apologize for what I said. I didn’t mean it maliciously. You know I’m a comedian. You know my heart. 

“Miley, I apologize, so I’ll call you. I got a daughter too, so I completely understand.”

Yeah, you understand this is lousy PR for your movie, so you try to weasel out of the whole thing. I wouldn’t court on being invited back to the Academy of Country Music awards next year, dude. Or the Kid’s Choice awards, either.

It’s another sign the economy sucks when movie studios are pushing back the release of films with A-list stars and cutting back their output. Beset by budget problems, Paramount is pushing back “The Soloist” starring Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr. from Thanksgiving to March and Daniel Craig’s “Defiance” from December to January. Representatives of the studio told the L.A. Times that studio would release no more than 20 films next year. Hard times tend to make audiences long for lighter, frothier fare from Hollywood—can we expect a sequel to “Beverly Hills Chihuahua” in 2009?

Our great photogs got up close on the set of The Soloist, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx. The two stars were caught shooting and preparing for a few scenes yesterday, as they filmed on the streets of downtown Los Angeles. Jamie plays a musical genius who becomes homeless in L.A. and is befriended by a journalist (played by Robert). It looks like Jamie’s going for another Oscar with this role. Maybe that’s his specialty – playing musicians of some sort. He’s sure come a long way from playing Wanda on In Living Color (although that’s by far still my fave Jamie Foxx role). I do think he’s a better dramatic actor than comedian. At any rate, we have tons more pictures of these two true thespians filming in the city of angels for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy.

This sounds like an Oscar contender right off the bat. Our photogs were at the set of The Soloist, starring Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr. The movie is a true story about musical prodigy Nathaniel Ayers who developed schizophrenia in his second year at Juilliard. Ayers ends up homeless on the streets of downtown Los Angeles, where he plays his cello and violin. Steve Lopez, a Los Angeles Times columnist, writes about Ayers and the two strike up a friendship. Robert is playing Steve Lopez’s character and Jamie plays Nathaniel Ayers. I read on Variety.com that Jamie’s actually learning to play stringed instruments from a cellist with the L.A. Philharmonic for this movie. That’s called dedication to his role, ladies and gents. I’m glad to see Robert Downey Jr. looking healthy (albeit the fake blood all over his face) these days. He is definitely one of the most talented actors in Hollywood. We have tons more photos from the set, so please check them out.
