You proba𝄹bly ༒think it’s easy being Miss Golden Globe. Just slip into your free designer gown and escort the winner across the stage as they clutch their new statuettes, right?
Turns ou𒆙t there’s one problem with this gig: You only get ꦅone bathroom break.
“I asked [last year’s Miss Golden Globe] Greer Grammer for advice. She told me use ﷺ[my break] wisely,” says Corinne Foxx, this year’s Miss Golden Globe and the daughter of actor 𝐆Jamie Foxx ().
Foxx, 21, was anno♍unced as this year’s Miss Golden Gloඣbe in November, but knew about it for a month beforehand. The only other person who knew was her father. Her friends were a bit put out.
“They were surprised I’d k🅠ept it a secret for a month,” she says. “They said, ‘So that’s what you’ve been doing?’ I’d been sketchy.”
Foxx has attended the Globes before. And the Oscar🌱s. She w൩as her dad’s date in 2005 when he won Best Actor for “Ray.”
“I told him 🥂as they were about to announce, ‘No matter what, even if you don’t win, you don’t need a piece of metal to know you’re a good actor.’”
Though Foxx 🅰has acting ambitions of her own, she wisely went to college and will graduate from the University of Sout𝐆hern California in May with a BA in Public Relations. But she plans on pursuing acting, which she also has been studying, as soon as she has her diploma.
Until then, she can practice her public relations skills on the winners, t♑o whom she will hand their statuettes and make sure they don’t trip on the way to the press room. After having met so many stars through her father, is there anyone who gives her pause?
“⛄I really want 🎐to see [Best Actress nominee] Amy Schumer. She’s someone I’d be nervous around,” Foxx says.
Though she won’t reveal which designer she’s wearing, or even if she will wear her long hair up or down, she🍬 feels comfortable saying which nominees she’s rooting for.
“Leo DiCaprio is a pretty good fri﷽end of ours. Me and my dad were pretty excited when he was nominated [as B🤡est Actor for ‘The Revenant’],” she says. “I sat next to him at the last Golden Globes.”
The “Golden Globe Awards” air at 8 p.m. Sunday on NBC
