‘You Are My Light’: Jamie Foxx Pens Emotional Tribute For His Late Sister Deidra On Her Birthday

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but be moved by Jamie Foxx‘s heartfelt tributes to his sisters, Deidra and DeOndra. The bond between these siblings is truly extraordinary, and it shines through in every post and message that Jamie shares.


On August 1st, Jamie Foxx made his sister Deidra Dixon’s birthday exceptional by sharing a touching tribute on social media. Known for his roles in movies and television, the esteemed actor took the opportunity to publicly acknowledge Deidra, expressing her significant influence on his life in a heartfelt post.

To celebrate her special day, Foxx posted a heartfelt video montage filled with memories they shared. The footage captured the two siblings enjoying drinks and dancing in different locations, including Deidra serenading at a dinner table with the Fugees’ Killing Me Softly with His Song playing in the background. In his caption, Foxx expressed his gratitude: “Wishing my amazing sister Deidra Dixon a super joyous birthday!!!”

He said, “You are amazing you are my light you saved my life… I repeat you saved my life!!!!!! I am forever grateful for you and today.” Foxx concluded, “I want you to turn up and enjoy. You are the best little Leo, real tears in my eyes right now I love you to the moon and back.!!! @frequency11.”

Foxx’s heartfelt tribute underscores his deep connection to Deidra. Last year, on what would have been DeOndra Dixon’s 39th birthday, he publicly shared his feelings of longing for her, expressing through a post that “I miss you… I know you’re in heaven, making everyone laugh with your jokes.” Tragically, DeOndra, who served as an ambassador for the Global Down Syndrome Foundation, passed away in October 2020 at the young age of 36.

Foxx’s latest birthday message comes after a major health crisis in April 2023, during which he spent 20 days unconscious due to a severe headache and lost all memory of that time, as he shared in a video posted on X (previously Twitter). In this video, he expressed his gratitude towards Deidra and his daughter Corinne Foxx for their vital role in his recovery.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to share my recent personal health journey. My dear friends Deidra and Corinne have been instrumental in guiding me towards crucial medical care. They took me to see doctors who, thankfully, were able to diagnose and treat an issue that required immediate attention.

Previously, Foxx acknowledged that Deidra played a crucial role in preserving his life. In February 2023, he expressed this by saying, “I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you… If not for the choices you made, I would have lost my life.” (Paraphrased)
