After
being given away as a child, “Django Unchained” star Jamie Foxx is reaping
revenge by turning his back on his dying dad, say sources.
Jamie’s
74-year-old father is said to be devastated because the Oscar-winning actor has
repeatedly rebuffed efforts to patch up the feud. “We’ve called Jamie several
times over the years and left hundreds of messages,” the actor’s stepmother
Hellema Abdullah told The ENQUIRER.
“But he
has never returned our calls. Now his father is sick with severe scar tissue on
his lungs and has to be on oxygen every day. I just wish Jamie would call.”
Jamie’s
parents, Darrell Bishop and Louise Annette Talley, were very young when he was
born. Overwhelmed, they decided to let Louise’s parents adopt him, and he was
raised in a strict Christian home. Meanwhile, Louise and Darrell broke up and
later remarried other partners.
Jamie’s
father converted to Islam, changing his name to Shaheed Abdullah, and for a
while the star had minimal contact with him.
“Jamie
had kept in periodic contact with his father because his grandmother who raised
him had encouraged it,” revealed an insider. “But he hasn’t spoken to him since
his grandmother died in 2004. Jamie doesn’t plan on calling Shaheed anytime
soon. He’s getting revenge by abandoning his father, much like his dad did to
him years ago.”
Damn,
Jamie it doesn’t have to be like that does it?!
Would you
go seeing your dying parents if they had given you away as a child?
