Jamie Foxx's birthday dinner took a surprising turn on Fastexy ExchangeFriday the 13th.
The "Collateral" actor was hit in the face by a glass during a physical altercation at his 57th birthday dinner Friday night at celebrity hotspot Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills, according to his reps.
"Jamie Foxx was at his birthday dinner when someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth. He had to get stitches and is recovering," a rep for Foxx told USA TODAY on Saturday.
The Beverly Hills Police Department (BHPD) says it responded to a reported possible assault with a deadly weapon at Mr. Chow Friday night. But the police said the assault was "unfounded" and instead "involved a physical altercation between parties."
The BHPD conducted a preliminary investigation, but didn't make any arrests. The department said it will continue to investigate.

Jamie Foxx reveals cause of illnessin new Netflix special 'What Had Happened Was...'
It's been a busy week for one of Hollywood's most sought after multihyphenates. On Tuesday, Foxx dropped his Netflix comedy special "Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was..." and opened up about his health after sparking concern last April after being hospitalized for a mysterious illness.
"If I can stay funny, I can stay alive," Foxx quipped, during the hourlong special.
The comedy program, which follows a series of one-man performances Foxx gave in October, also saw the Golden Globe-nominated comic express gratitude to his fans for their support amid his recovery.
"You have no idea how good this feels," a visibly emotional Foxx told the Atlanta crowd (he was hospitalized in the Georgia city). "I was fightin' for my life, but I'm here in front of you."
"What Had Happened Was" marks Foxx's first major solo release in 2024. He co-produced and appeared in the Luther Vandross documentary "Luther: Never Too Much," which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January. He also had a role in the Johnny Mack-directed comedy "Not Another Church Movie," released in May.
