Corinne Foxx

[edit]

Created by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self-nominated at 20:13, 3 May 2018 (UTC).

General eligibility:

  • New enough: Yes
  • Long enough: Yes
  • Other problems: No - The personal life section is very awkward, and could use clarity that Jamie Foxx's birth name is Eric Marlon Bishop. Even though I know she is Jamie Foxx's daughter, I got a bit confused seeing that her father was born Eric Marlon Bishop. Briefly thought Foxx was her stepfather.

Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - As far as I can tell from his own article and a bit of sleuthing, Jamie Foxx never legally changed his name. He is still legally Eric Bishop, and Corinne just changed her professional surname to match his stage name, kind of like Charlie Sheen.
  • Interesting: Yes
QPQ: Done.

Overall: This is very close to all set, just a few pieces of information that I think need clarified, specifically revolving around Foxx's name(s). Sock (tock talk) 12:30, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
