Graham's ability to follow the guest and guide them story without interrupting always so lovely to see. He didnt try and fill the silence but let the moment be
He really is a talented interviewer. You're absolutely right; a lot of interviewers might have tried to break the silence, but Norton let his guest and the audience marinate. Fine work.
@@nickbotic Absolutely, Graham is a real gem!
TolzThundercats So true he’s brilliant.⭐️
We need to get his show in this country. Or every country. Not just on youtube. He is a brilliant talk showhost. Gives them a drink to relax a little. Great personality and doesn’t hog the spotlight
:)
Graham Norton really is the greatest talk show host of this generation. He Always, always let his guests talk the talk, never interrupts, and sometimes let each and everyone of the guests have a conversation with each other. Such a great man.
Jimmy Fallon would have faked laughed all through that story
@@paulm7291 "hahaha, anyway you only have five minutes left so I'm going to move onto another topic 🤣"
@@paulm7291 American talk shows have nothing on British ones.
American ones are just so regimented. Pre-planned stories, one guest at a time, no swearing, no drinking.
Graham’s show is so entertaining because it’s just an hour of people hanging out and he is the guard rail the keeps the conversation flowing. They talk about all of the things that the audience would want to talk about if they were sitting down with the celebrities.
Even within such a personal story he uses the moment to praise a colleague. All around classy guy.
1:14 that pause though...
It was a long one. I saw it when it aired, the pause was to fight back the tears.
So deep!!! 😪
@R Treadwell holy shit you are such a sad guy
This is why Jamie Fox will always be blessed!!! 🙏🏽 He is multi-talented and a true King just like his Father.
Thank God he didnt tell this story, such an important one, on Jimmy falons show. He would just get talked over in that one -_-
Nah man jimmy kimmel is so worst the falon
Exactly
American tv hosts vs British tv hosts
Everything's a joke to the former
I'm sorry Jamie..they did you wrong...#respect
Who did what wrong?
@@renainc.6082 did you watch the video
@@renainc.6082 dude...his pops was put in jail for 7 years for a small matter that could have been solved easily otherwise.
That part in the interview when Jamie said about his father,I see you as a King,man that was a moment,because even though my father is no longer here,I still see him as my King ❤️🙏🏽❤️
May he rest in peace ❤️🙏🏼
You are the man brother, the perfect son of a perfect father.
Graham truly has one of the last great talk shows. Such a fantastic interviewer. Natural charisma, keeps it light and jovial but then can probe into some really moving personal stories. Jimmy Fallon could never.
That moment when you hear that noise in his throat when he gets upset 🥺
The emotions in his voice, bless his heart
It's Sad, but his Son is Blessed, and Jamie Blessed his Dad ❤
So much respect for Jamie Foxx.
Wow, this is the first time I hear a serious story in the show!
I know it feels good!😊👏
Jamie is born to be a story teller.
Native kid from Canada I did it on my own. Played high level basketball my whole college experience. I can relate to this never had a mama or dad we make this shit cause we taught nothing else. Love y’all
I’m with Jamie on this. He’s the best and I’m too tired for arguments and put-downs. Thanks for your time.
Such a brilliant actor and a great person
What a great story..
oh he's good with words
Thank you Jamie Foxx.. It's the power of our testimonies that we can encourage, restore, and save lives. Much Respect 100%
So emotional
Fallon: “HAHAHAHA that’s j…just incredible..uhhh tell me more about the tennis”
Man i love Jaime , he's an amazing guy
Best show in the world.love you.👍👍❤️❤️

graham Norton: “don’t touch Mr. Foxx”
Michael b Jordan: *regretful face and pulls arm away*
Very touching. Gob bless him and his family
Last time i saw my dad was on a bus..he got on i said whats up, he said whats up, then he got off. That was 34 years ago, havent seen him since. Now, when people ask who my dad is i say " he died about 34 years ago".
I'm so sorry to hear that brother... I hope it wasn't too hard for you and your mother to survive without him. God bless
@@pratibhakandarkar5883 all good brother, I just promised myself to be a better father than him and be there to support my kids. Moms who good, got married and have a cool stepdad
@@lamar4254 So good to hear that! Be a better man... that's all that matters... Your mother raised a good son..
I'm so sorry
Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities, who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds, their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself
I just love JF…what an amazing talented man.
Man, Foxx is the real deal. Just class.
Wow. That was so moving.
I almost forgot to watch this video today
$25 dollars worth of an illegal substance. Man never says the substance. Just quotes the street value. He also doesn't say why his father had the substance in the first place. But you know he's a hero because a famous guy said a special story about it.
It was that pause for me.
Wow awesome 👍 Jamie fox
Wow what a story.
You feel the pain in his voice??
Gosh so moving 🥺
now thats a good man.
My grandpa died the year after the Montreal Canadians made the cup wish I coulda took him 🙏🏽
everyone's busy with his story and I'm just admiring his haircut and keep on wondering if I can get a fresh ass fade like his
Graham is just the most unrude host. If that is even a word😂
Michael B Jordan and Jamie Foxx. wow, we watched Michael grow up on the HBO series, that's where I first seen him at. has a big part in The Wire. and Jamie? man they say they mistake me for you, well the broke version. I'm not famous yet man, but I'm kind of like Forrest Gump because I know many famous people or I should say I've came across their path and spoke to them. haven't met you though yet Jamie but I salute you for the work that you have done, especially mending the fences that were miles apart, you value relationships especially family, and for that we all can learn the lesson.
Wow! 😢😢
WoW my tears fallen
What a man
man oh man
I thought he was going to portray Tyson in a movie?
Its in development mate
I forgot to mention Kanye played at my party
Micheal b jordon suits anything lol
Jamie is a cool.
My Dad taught me all that. Also taught me not to buy and do drugs. So who is at fault Jamie? Who made him buy the drugs? And if he was a teacher, so he was a school official in charge of teaching other people's children and he was doing drugs too? Does that seem like the correct and responsible thing to do?
What year was this? Back in the 80s $27.00 is like $100.00 today. The average hourly wage was $9.30. So were taking a good amount of drugs. What drug was it? Or is that too real! You get years for weight and if over a certain amount you can be charged with intent to distribute. He needs to tell the whole story and not this pared down feel sorry for me thing.
He told it from his perspective as a son. He said that he thought of his Dad as a king and didn’t want to see him as a tainted man in prison.
Not a crime for Jaimie to love his family mate. No need to get wound up.
I love Michael Jordan
What movie is he talking about?
He talks so similarly to Flloyd Mayweather
❤️
This is very misleading from Foxx. So it's OK for $25 and maybe not $50? Or $250 is OK but not $2500? So where do we draw the line? I think the key word here is illegal substance.
None.

Wasn’t he raised by his grandparents though
First offence? I don't think so

0:29 THE FAKEST GASP EVER HAHAHAHAHAHA SHE DID NOT GIVE A SHIT
What shirt is Micheal B Jordan wearing? Looks sick
Hi 😁😁😁😁😁
How does he get away with saying the same stuff on every talk show? lol
Same way u would if you were telling the truth. No lol.
Anyone taking issue with black people should see this. The destruction of the black family was deliberate. So many people in society take drugs from cannabis to cocaine to fentynol but why does black men have to go to prison for so long for so little.
😐😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Sad sad sad.
That’s Texas for you…. They will throw the book on a black man
He broke the law
teri mummy tod dunga chup bkl
7 years is an immoral sentence
@@TC0901 repeat offender
@@FrankieWilde2021 for having a substance that the government deemed immortal to have.
It’s funny how he try to minimize his father’s fault… was a grown ass man, a teacher, wtf a teacher it’s doing with ilegal DRUGS?!? Bad decisions have consequences
It's a lovely story and I'm a fan of the show and Jaime... but I'm confused how his dad did all theses things and was a "king" when he and the mom abandoned Eric aka Jaime and didn't see him until he was an adult. At least according to every other interview prior to Just Mercy. What am I missing?
That's your point of view. YOU see it that way. Jamie chose to still see his dad as a King DESPITE all those things u mentioned. What's even more important is that you are not in a position to legislate if Jamie should see his dad as a King.
@R Treadwell I get the feeling u r about to 'educate' me. Oh wait, you also don't think I know what 'educate' means. Drat, where has your inspiring aura been my entire life ?
@R Treadwell Doesn't change the fact that I get the feeling u r about to 'educate' me. Oh wait, still doesn't change the fact you also don't think I know what 'educate' means. Drat, still doesn't change the fact I am wondering where your inspiring aura has been my entire life.
No king is perfect, no king is without fault, and no king is godly, but the his crown still shines.
Not a deflection, you just lack proper reading comprehension....as I posted; "No king is perfect", "no king is without fault"...you didn't read carefully, and now here we are, me having to oversimplify and teach you how to attach and detach points.
Just move on kiddo.

Officer: Sir, why do you have $25 worth meth on you?
Jamie Fox's dad: Officer, you don't understand. I taught my kid how to play tennis.
Does Jennifer have her dog next to her? What IS Michael wearing? Its looks like a plumbers suit
It's a 60's Star Trek Wig.
imagine going to jail for just breaking the law, i mean people who break the law shouldnt go to jail if they have done some nice stuff too :(
7 years for 25 dollars of illegal substance? Really you think that’s fair when so many people bankers and stock brokers abuse kilos of cocaine everyday ?
You think that's fair. You'd make a horrible lawyer. I hope you flunk law school
I bet your just like the people who are giving individuals 7 years for a $20 bag of weed your what's wrong with our world
It's like how someone told me keying someone's car is equivalent to murder. It isn't.
All crimes aren't the same. 7 years for $20 of illegal substance is way too much.
@@kramikrai9460 here in the uk all that would happen is a would be questioned weed confiscated and given a warning that is it no jail america is fucked up with there drug stuff and the prison system is basically how the government got around the slavery laws
Any disappointment at all in the father for not considering his family when he committed the crime?
Doesn't want to see his father in jail because he wants to see him as some sort of king?
Talk about denial.
What a nimrod.
Do you think 7 years for 25 bucks' worth of stuff is fair?
The sentence was ridiculous and im sure he did feel guilt for the 7 years he was in there.
I stopped believing his exaggerated tales. On American talk shows, his ego is massively on display too. Watch him on the David Letterman show where it's all about "pimps & h*es". But when he appears on The Graham Norton show, he acts like butter wouldn't melt... Additionally, why do celebs often have these stories when they're selling flicks!!?? Not denying his father was incarcerated, but, the tales to promote the film!!
Debbie Smith the crime for drugs is not that you are directly hurting anyone, its the impact those drugs can cause in the future. Its a good thing jamie fox didnt pick up the drug habit as it is easily passed from parents to kids. Although it is a strong sentence, drugs to have damaging effects and they’re illegal for a reason.
@@baokachi9767 the only reason drugs are illegal is because american government beurocrats were massive racists and started the war on drugs to punish black people. the reason drugs are dangerous is because they're unregulated and controlled by gangs who mix all kinds of shit to make more money... isn't it funny that if you break your leg you go to hospital and they dose you up on massive amounts of medical grade heroin and no one dies? the drugs themselves aren't dangerous, if drugs were legalised and taken safely the homicide rate in america would go down from anywhere from 25-75%, prohibition never works.
