Jamie Foxx is not taking his safety lightly. Sources say he is looking to press charges against the Jackass staffer who allegedly threw a glass at him.
TMZ is exclusively reporting that the multi-hyphenate is making sure that the individual who apparently tossed glassware at him at a Los Angeles hotspot will not get away scot-free. The celebrity news website says a source close to Jamie Foxx has confirmed the actor is indeed working with the local police on the matter. While LAPD have to formally name the suspects TMZ reports that the man they want to question is Jasper Dolphin.
The man born Davon Lamar Wilson is listed as a founding member of Rap collective Odd Future and is credited with working as a stuntman on the Jackass series. Earlier this month Jamie Foxx was celebrating his birthday with friends and family at Mr. Chow’s. Upstairs though the staff of Jackass were hosting their yearly holiday party. Apparently one of the jokesters flashed a penis shaped light at his table prompting the “Blame It” singer to go upstairs to confront the crew. It seems things got tense between the two parties after words were exchanged resulting in someone apparently throwing a cocktail glass at Jamie.
Jamie Foxx nor Jasper Dolphin has yet to formally comment on the matter.

We now have more details about the mishap at Jamie Foxx’s birthday. The incident was apparently caused by crew members of Jackass.
Page Six is reporting that the Oscar winner’s recent celebration of life came to an abrupt end thanks to an indecent attempt at humor. The celebrity website says the In Living Color talent invited a small circle of family and friends to Mr. Chow’s in Beverly Hills, Calif. While dining, someone in the upstairs VIP area starting shining a laser pointer in the shape of a penis to his table. Naturally, this infuriated the comedian especially considering both of his daughters Corinne, 30, and Anelise,16, were both present.
He and some of his party went upstairs to meet the troublemakers. According to TMZ, the area was rented out by Dickhouse Productions, the makers of Jackass. Words were exchanged, which resulted in a confrontation where one of the production crew members allegedly tossed a drink at Jamie’s face, which cut his mouth. Sources tell TMZ the Ray star stood there bleeding and said, “It’s my birthday, what is wrong with you?” It is reported he soon left after the incident, but the Dickhouse Productions crew continued to be aggressive to Jamie’s party downstairs.
A lawyer for Dickhouse has commented on the matter saying, “Although the crew has the greatest respect for Jamie, the version of events that has been presented is totally inaccurate and deeply unfair to those attending their holiday celebration that night.” None of the actual stunt cast members from the Jackass series were present.
