2004 Espy Awards - Jamie Foxx's Opening Monologue 

"We gonna get wilder than R.Kelly at a teenager retreat" damn im crying..

I think the Academy needs to give Jamie Foxx a shot at hosting the oscars.

A good singer.. dancer.. actor.. and a true gentleman Salute to Sir Jamie Foxx

J. Fox is the best entertainer ever!

I died @ 0:29 "you better make some noise you rich motherfuckers"

The Espys is not like this anymore. Bring back Jamie for 2020!

Serena, Damn!.... I'ma come back to that. lmao

man, he has so much energy and the jokes are so much fun (especially the skits). No clue why he isn't the PERMANENT ESPYS HOST!

They don't do em like this anymore

This was such a great opening. Jamie is a comedic genius. I pray that he's the same after having that stroke. The world needs more Jamie Foxx.

How can this man be so talented..Gifted !!!

the year of oversized suits

Jamie Foxx is a legend!!

"That's my nougat!"

One tear rolled out of my right eye when he said Jason Kidd was nougat.

Jamie Fox always come through!!! Great host!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Love some Jamie Fox one of the best talented entertainers ever..

Jaimie is best host of anything. Pure entertainer

Serena damn!!! Imma come back to that 😂😂😂

At least this year, the audience was having a good time, u watch now nobody is smiling ever

I legit couldn’t breathe the entire time he was on stage because I was laughing so hard! He absolutely KILLED it! He’s the best host ever. They should just let him do them every year!

2000s Jamie was deep in his hosting bag. If you don't hate most award shows and their hosts you're not human. If you forget that you're watching an award show while you're watching Jamie host you know can't lose when he's in his bag like this. 🔥

It's not safe Jamie killz this, we gon get it cracking like Bobby & Whitney, Courtney love, Robert downing jr., rick james partying at daryl strawberrys house with lawrence taylor on the wheels of steel hard

“We gonna get wilder than R Kelly at a teen summit retreat!”😂😂

Think about the pressure. Lebron , Tom Brady , and Samuel L Jackson in the front row... jamie killed it !

My favorite host of all time. So under rated

Jamie Foxx was put in R. Kelly on blast way back then !! 5:35!!! 😩

damn lebron really been around forever

I love the dance for Jesus!!!

“We gone get wilder then R. Kelly at a team summer retreat”🤣🤣 Mfs been knew Kells wasn’t right

Cutting to JIm Caviezel was genius and the R Kelly joke was WAY ahead of tts time LOL.

You could not say 90% of this stuff today. Jamie is the GOAT

This guy is really talented !

Dude is incredible!

Lmao Jamie's the best. Need to bring him back

You guys were pucking incredible!

The ending had me in tears!! lmaoo

Omg hes hilarious

Lebron and his mama was cracking up when Jamie came out.

That was probably the greatest opening monologue at the ESPYs ever

He's so talented, dude can do anything.

Jaimie is such a natural! Hilarious!

Jamie's s whole fool 😂😂😂😭😭

Extremely talented

Man this guy....Funniest and the best ESPY Awards host ever !

JAMIE FOXX IS THE MOST INCREDIBLE TALENT IN HOLLYWOOD!!! ILL PUT HIM UP AGAINST ANYBODY CAUSE HE DOES IT ALL AND HE DOES IT ALL AT A HIGH LEVEL!!! ITS NOT EVEN A CONVERSATION!!!!!

Espys need Foxx back, it’s been 15 years...

Lmao damn. Jamie was hitting!

Pure talent

Kevin garnet was just holding it about Ben Wallace.

I could not breathe towards the end!

What an epic introduction

Brilliant.

What in the WORLD!! Was that Terrific Tom Cruise seating right behind terrific Tom Brady @0:15....interesting....their like the same person. Love how Foxx did that skit of an introduction for Jesus joining the Lakers at guard hailing from virgin Mary university ..."YOOOURRR MAAASIIAAAAAHHH!!"BEAUTIFUL!!!

BEST EVER.

“You better make some noise, you’re rich” lolll

After seeing the opening monologue I want to go watch the full show on RU-vid

O'boy, he does it all. God bless him.

Jsmie didn't hold back for nothing lol

He's gotta be the most talented person on the fuckin planet man, Gambino is on his way up there for sure but Jamie Foxx is A-list level in every field he's been in

Wish it could be like this.

Those James brown's moves

so much politically incorrectness 😂😂 now and days this would be offensive

BEST ESPY'S HOST EVER....TWICE!!!!!

R Kelly and Lawrence Taylor bit killed me!

Why does the footage look so old? We had HD in 2004. Jaime lit the room up! Espy's are not this loose any more.

Damn Jamie

Crazy that Tom Brady had two rings during this time not knowing what the future has for him…. Oh yea Jamie killed this monologue

Dude behind KG be like "What the heck? They didn't teach me this at boarding school."

look at KG...happy for once..

Interesting monologue.

WOW

Nomaaaaaahhhhh

“you better make some noise you’re rich”😂😂

they should have had him take Eddie Murphy's place for the Oscars and he's even an oscar winner.

LeBron, Serena and Tom Brady are still on top of their games today...... smh, we won't see the likes of them again

4:04 Derek Fisher plotting on GP wife
