London, Oct 12 (IANS) Jamie Foxx missed out on the chance to star alongside pal Tom Cruise in "Jerry Maguire" because he acted like a fool at his audition. 

The "Ray" star, who later teamed up with Cruise in "Collateral", admitted he made a mess of his chance to play Cuba Gooding Jr's role - which won the actor an Oscar - in the hit sports film because he was overawed by Cruise, according to entertainment portal femalefirst.

Foxx told Playboy magazine: "I blew it, man. Maybe I wasn't ready. Tom was just too famous and I was too young. I was a stand-up comedian and I just **** it up."
