Jan. 15 2013, Published 5:49 a.m. ET
2013 has just begun, but already Chris Rock has failed at his New Year’s resolution.
“I tried to cut out porn,” the married comedian, 47, admits Monday during Celebrity Charades Annual Benefit Gala supporting the LAByrinth Theater Company held at Capitale in NYC. “Every year, no more porn. Day three — porn. laughs”

“Jamie Foxx!” he tells me, without elaborating.
He heads inside the event, where he faces off in a celebrity charades competition. When he is given the phrase “In Living Color” to act out, he points to Rosie Perez, who immediately starts dancing, and helps his team score another point.
Still, it isn’t enough. His Blue crew, which includes Padma Laskhmi, loses to the Silver team, which includes Paul Rudd and Billy Crudup.
