11. Jamie Foxx
Some would classify Jamie Foxx as a quadruple threat, since he can act, sing, dance and is a comedian. Foxx rose to fame as a cast member of the comedy show In Living Color, and went on to have his own sitcom, The Jamie Foxx Show. On the sitcom, Jamie got the chance to show off his vocal skills, and even sang with legend Gladys Knight on the show (she portrayed his mother). Jamie also has several comedy specials under his belt. Foxx got critical acclaim for his portrayal of music icon Ray Charles in the movie Ray, and showed the world that he was more than just a comedic actor. At the 2009 BET Awards, Foxx opened up the show with a dance routine in honor of Michael Jackson. Obviously, he wouldn’t attempt a Jackson routine if he weren’t a skilled dancer.
