Jamie Foxx made a quick apology to Miley Cyrus on The Tonight Show after making the comment on his radio show that the teen idol should grow up, get a gum transplant, make a sex tape, do heroin, get into a lesbian relationship, smoke crack, and get chlamydia on a bicycle seat.

If I could do it all over again I would do all of the above the summer before my 10th grade year! I don’t think he was coming from a bad place really.

If Foxx was trying to knock Cyrus out of the box office competition before his next film, The Soloist, comes out on April 24, it didn’t work. Foxx had to regroup after much criticism, and use his time on The Tonight Show to offer an apology.

Foxx said that his show was like “the black Howard Stern” in which they go after everybody. He said he didn’t mean to go after Cyrus maliciously, despite the maliciousness of some of those suggestions.

Foxx reached out to Cyrus and said “You know I’m a comedian. You know my heart,” offering to call her personally. He has a daughter roughly Cyrus’s age, which is why he “completely understands.”
