Jamie Foxx put family first this weekend! On Saturday, October 20, the actor attended the “Be Beautiful, Be Yourself” fashion show in Denver, CO, which raises funds for the Global Down Syndrome Foundation. Jamie attended the event with his sister DeOndra Dixon, who was born with Down syndrome, and his daughter Annalise. In addition to Jamie, celebs like Colin Farrell and Jeremy Renner also participated in the benefit, which raised $2.4 million for Down syndrome research!
