Jamie Foxx thinks pals will steal his Oscar

Washington, Apr 22 (ANI): American actor Jamie Foxx is said to have given his manager the job of safeguarding his prestigious Oscar, as he is convinced that his friends will try and steal it.

Foxx, 41, who had won the Academy Award for his portrayal of Ray Charles in 2005 movie Ray, insists that the Oscar, which is his prized possession, would be stolen if he kept it on display at his home.

"My manager keeps it in his house. I got too many people coming to my house," Contactmusic quoted him as telling Moviefone.com.

"I don't want it to walk off. People stealing it and leaving me with an Oscar Mayer (meat product) instead. Like, what's this doing here?" he added. (ANI)
