According to the report, sources claimed Foxx — who faced an intervention in 2005 — has vowed to stay on the wagon.
"He was so out of control after his Oscar for Ray his Hollywood friends had to step in," the spy spilled. "He cleaned up his act but by no means did he go totally cold turkey — and over the years it took a toll."
"He now realizes he needs to get healthy once and for all."
