Daughter of Jamie Foxx Named Miss Golden Globe

Corinne Foxx, the daughter of Golden Globe-winning actor Jamie Foxx, was named Tuesday night to serve as Miss Golden Globe at the Jan. 10 awards ceremony.

Corinne Foxx is a senior at USC.

Miss Golden Globe is traditionally a daughter of a well-known celebrity who assists in the ceremony. Previous Miss Golden Globes include Laura Dern, a daughter of Diane Ladd and Bruce Dern, Joely Fisher, a daughter of Connie Stevens and Eddie Fisher, and Melanie Griffith, a daughter of Tippi Hedren.

The announcement was made at Ysabel West Hollywood.

Jamie Foxx won the Golden Globe for best performance by an actor in a comedy or musical motion picture in 2005 for his portrayal of singer Ray Charles in “Ray,” a role that also brought him a best actor Oscar.

Foxx received two other Golden Globe nominations for awards presented in the 2005 ceremony -- best performance by an actor in a motion picture for “Collateral” and best performance by an actor in a miniseries or motion picture made for television for “Redemption: The Stan Tookie Williams Story.”
