Jamie Foxx Celebrates Quvenzhane Wallis’ Golden Globe Nom

ET caught up with Quvenzhané Wallis soon after she learned of her nomination for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy. Her Annie co-star Jamie Foxx even stopped by to congratulate her!

“She is so great at what she does you forget she’s only been here 11 years,” Jamie gushed to ET. “For people to look at the art and award you, not with a pat on the back or a good critique, you get nominated for a Golden Globe. How many celebrities, actors and actresses, have gone through Hollywood and never gotten that opportunity?… It’s mind blowing. And for any kid out there — no matter what race — this is just inspiring,” Jamie said.
