Jamie Foxx to launch Channel on SIRIUS Satellite Radio

SIRIUS Satellite Radio today announced that it will launch The Foxxhole, an exclusive urban comedy, entertainment and lifestyle channel with Jamie Foxx. Foxx won the 2005 Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in Ray and is currently starring in the award-winning smash hit movie Dreamgirls.

As executive producer, on-air host and contributor for the channel, Foxx will draw from his wide array of artistic experience and success from music, comedy, film and television. Marcus King, who has produced such Foxx projects as The Jamie Foxx Show, Jamie Foxx: Unpredictable, Genius: A Night for Ray Charles, and other television series and specials, will also serve as executive producer. The 24/7 channel will feature urban comedy bits from a large number of comedians, and will create groundbreaking approaches to presenting comedy to radio listeners, as well as showcase music, skits, radio theater and more. The Foxxhole will launch this spring on SIRIUS channel 106.

"The Foxxhole will break new ground in comedy, blurring the lines between stand-up, sketch, and music," said Foxx. "SIRIUS Satellite Radio gives me the opportunity to create urban entertainment and programming like you have never heard on the radio."

Foxx will be heard on the channel daily with a segment featuring dispatches from Jamie no matter where he is in the world. Also, Foxx and his team of contributors will host a weekly show on the channel. The show will feature original comedy bits and a new approach to radio theater.
