    Whether it’s the ultimate gold statue in the realm of acting through his Academy Award for his portrayal of legendary artist and musical icon, Ray Charles or for his work as an illustrious, multitalented singer/songwriter/producer in the form of an American Music Award and now 3 Grammy Award nominations—music's highest honor, Jamie Foxx is definitely on fire. Now, he will be lighting up stages across the country with his electrifying tour appropriately named JAMIE FOXX: UNPREDICTABLE. It’s an evening of song from his chart-topping album and sidesplitting stand-up comedy as only Jamie Foxx can provide.


     


    Foxx is only weeks past the release of the year’s biggest and this decade most talked about movie-- “Dreamgirls.” The movie hit theaters across the country on Christmas Day, and now Foxx is embarking upon one of the most highly anticipated and long awaited concert tours to hit cities in years.


     


    Foxx once said, “Ray Charles taught him how to feel.” Now, millions in this country and abroad are feeling him like never before. Foxx’s fans will now get an up close and personal opportunity to see him on his multi-city tour which kicked off on December 26, 2006 in San Diego, CA at the San Diego Civic Center. The show is being presented by Bay Area Productions and Another Planet Entertainment.


     


    The show hits Louisville, KY on Wednesday, February 7, 2007 for one exclusive show at 8 PM at the Louisville Palace, 625 4th Avenue.


     


    Millions of fans fell in love with Foxx’s soulful stylings when he delivered up his unique brand of musical flavor on Twista's # 1 song, "Slow Jamz", with Kanye West and on his collaboration with Kanye West on his #1 hit single, “Gold Digger.” These songs kicked Foxx’s musical career into high gear and served as the perfect segue into his burgeoning musical (Journey). Foxx’s debut album, Unpredictable, on J Records, has been certified platinum, earned Foxx critical acclaim, rave reviews and respect as a bona fide musical performer and now garnered him 3 Grammy Award nominations for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals, Best R&B Album and Best Rap/Song Collaboration for his work with famed rapper/actor Ludacris. From Foxx’s #1 hit, “Unpredictable” to “DJ, Play A Love Song” and his hilarious comedic stage show, Foxx will be bringing in the new year with a bang when Jamie Foxx: Unpredictable The National Tour hits cities from coast to coast.


     


    Turning up the heat, alongside Foxx, on selected tour dates will be his J Records label mate, Fantasia, who’s fresh off the success of her platinum selling debut, Free Yourself. Fantasia will join Foxx for his Sacramento, Oakland, Chicago, Atlantic City, Uncasville, CT, Washington, DC, New York, Orlando, and Ft. Lauderdale shows.  Fantasia, who burst upon the scene as the 2004 American Idol Winner, quickly rose through the ranks to become one of R&B’s most successful soloists upon the release of her debut album. The award-winning 22-year old continues to be one of the foremost female singers in the country. She also recently added actress to her remarkable resume when she starred in her own Lifetime Television, biopic “The Fantasia Barrino Story: Life is Not A Fairy Tale.” Fantasia will be touring in support of her long awaited sophomore release on J/19 Records, aptly titled Fantasia.  The album is already receiving rave reviews and the first single, entitled, “Hood Boy,” is currently climbing the charts.


     


    Whether it’s through their passionate performances, high-energy numbers, very sexy, soulful serenades or some unexpected surprises, Foxx and Fantasia will give their fans one truly unforgettable night to remember for the rest of their lives.
