‘Dating at 49 is tough’

Actor Jamie Foxx says his Hollywood star status does not make dating at an older age any easier.

During his recent appearance The Graham Norton Show, the 49-year-old actor opened up about the obstacles that come with being single at this age.

“It’s tough out there. I am getting older but people think I am younger. I was at a club the other night and a group of girls shouted my name. I was like, ‘Hey, what’s up?’ and they said, ‘We go to school with your daughter!’ You have to be so careful,” Foxx says.

“When I was asked the other day by a 20-something girl how old I was, she looked at me as though 49 was a terminal disease,” he quips.

Foxx is rumoured to be dating Katie Holmes since 2013.

The duo has never confirmed their relationship, but have been spotted spending quality time together. —PTI
