Jamie Foxx celebrated his 56th birthday last week, and well wishes from friends and fans alike came flooding in for the actor.

But one special "born day" message had Foxx a little emotional.


The actor's close pal Will Smith took to his Instagram to wish Foxx a happy birthday and to share a hilarious video of Foxx talking about experiencing the magnitude of Smith's fame while working alongside him.

In the caption, Smith wrote:

"HAPPY BORN DAY FOXX!!"
"Sending love & light to you brother @iamjamiefoxx"

While the video was certainly intended to be funny, Foxx found himself in his feelings over the "special bday" wish.

He commented on the post:

"Tears in my eyes."
"This a special bday for so many reasons I want to thank you a billion!"

Back in April, Foxx experienced a "medical complication" that resulted in a hospital stay followed by rehab. Many speculated the actor suffered a stroke, but that has yet to be confirmed.

Foxx also took the opportunity to gush over his friend.

"And also remind you of what you mean to us and the world. You have given us some many great artistic gems. Movies music culture!!!"
"You are and will always be BIG WILL!!! See you in PARIS! 😜!! Biggups!!!"
