Is Jamie Foxx hurting for money?
The Oscar winner joined super-hot country act Rascal Flatts onstage at Wednesday's Country Music Awards to belt out their tune "She Goes All the Way," and the country group cracks that they were merely trying to help a fellow musician out.
"His career has been in the toilet for a long time and we are trying to help him," bassist Jay DeMarcus jokes to OK!.
Apparently they were met with resistance until lead singer Gary LeVox made Jamie an offer he couldn't refuse. "I got a lot of photos he doesn't want anybody to see. We blackmailed him into it!" he laughs.

In reality, the act was orchestrated by Gary, who is a longtime friend of Jamie's. “Gary has known him for a lot of years," guitarist Joe Don Rooney says. "Jamie was way into it.”
