Are Jamie Foxx and Tyrin Turner in a secret gay relationship? Apparently, incarcerated Death Row Records co-founder Suge Knight accused the two men of being lovers.
Tyrin Turner recently sat down with The Art Of Dialogue. The actor best known for playing Caine Lawson in the 1993 cult classic Menace II Society suggested Suge Knight’s social media account got hacked before speaking on his connection to Jamie Foxx.
“Me and Jamie have been like brothers and best friends for years. What people don’t understand is that we do a lot of business together. So you may have seen us a lot,” Tyrin Turner explained during his interview.
The married father of two children also added, “When you’re dealing with people, people want to throw the little gay rumor [on you]. Somebody always gotta be gay in the world. I know what I like.”
Tyrin Turner then insisted that there is nothing wrong with being gay and mentioned Death Row singer Danny Boy coming out in 2016. Danny Boy released his Stranded on Death Row autobiography where he claimed to be the “adopted son” of Suge Knight.
In addition, Tyrin Turner stated, “I would’ve never thought in a million years that Suge would put something out there like that of somebody being gay, especially in the time that we’re living in where it’s okay.”
According to Turner, he and Jamie Foxx co-created the new Alert: Missing Persons Unit crime drama airing on the Fox network. Foxx previously starred in television series such as In Living Color and The Jamie Foxx Show as well as films such as Ray and Django Unchained.
