Check out Jamie Foxx on the cover of his new album, “Intuition.” He has a solid production and writing team consisting of Timbaland, Tricky Stewart, The Dream, Sean Garrett and more.

Our intuition tells us that with the names mentioned above, this album is almost a sure bet to be hotter than “Unpredictable,” but we want to know: who’s going to buy it when it comes out Dec. 16th?

Looks like both Jamie Foxx and Diddy are interested in playing the historical role.

Current star Daniel Craig recently suggested it could be time for the first black Bond in the wake of Barack Obama’s election as the first African-American president in U.S. history. Asked by U.S. news show Access Hollywood whether he would like to play Bond, he says, “Of course! I’d put a little swing in it. A little hip-hop, you know. Maybe not drinking martinis, but drinking some Hennessey maybe. Bond would drink dark liquor.” And Foxx admits he has already received backing to take on the coveted role. He adds, “I was in London and I had to give an award to Daniel Craig? and I went up and said, ‘Bond. Black Bond.’ And everybody just lost it… Black Bond would be cool.”

At the 2006 MTV Europe Music Awards Diddy also put his bid in for the role. “One day the time will come for a black Bond and hopefully I can audition for it. It’s a dream of mine to play a great role like that.”

Obama’s the president. Beyonce wants to be Wonder Woman, and now the next Bond might just be black. We smell a mutiny.

In the meantime, WHO SHOULD PLAY THE FIRST BLACK BOND?

Jamie got all cut up for his new role:

Oscar winner Jamie Foxx bit into the role of a schizophrenic musician for his latest movie The Soloist – by chiseling his perfect teeth. Foxx was determined to create a realiztic portrayal of Nathaniel Ayers, a homeless American musician who suffered from schizophrenia, so he took the tool to his mouth to mess up his good looks.

The actor explains to Maxim magazine, “I spent hours getting the nuances of the person, making him real. Something angelic happens and you actually become that person. For Nathaniel, I pushed things a bit. I lost about 20 pounds and I put a gap in my teeth. I had one (of my teeth) chipped out with a chisel. My teeth are just so big and white – a homeless person would never have them. I wanted to break up my big, shining piano keys to five them a little character. Some might think I f—ed up my grill for nothing, but I just wanted to come up with some s— to make the part unique.”

When they said chiseled, we didn’t know they were talking about his d@mn teeth. You’ll never accuse Jamie Foxx of not going the extra mile to get into character. Those things could have used a little chiseling anyway.

A big improvement for Jaimie..he has come a long way.

Earlier this month Jamie spoke to Britain’s “The Independent Newspaper” about the inspiration for his third studio album. He says new disc ‘Man’s Intuition’ was inspired by his frustration about understanding what the opposite sex really wants.

“On my radio show I have this panel of beautiful women and they were talking about how men with a lot of money aren’t all that. But if a guy has no money, that’s no good either. So I was thinking, ‘What does a woman want?’ We go from there and build the story and the songs.”

Jamie Foxx (photoed above with his sister) was out getting his swirl on tough in Vegas this weekend:

Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx got his blond fix in Vegas last weekend. The “Ray” star’s first target was “Dancing With the Stars” beauty Stacy Keibler. “She was bent over his lap, and he had his hands all over her body,” said a spy at the preview of Noah Tepperberg’s Lavo nightclub Friday night. “

The next day, he hit the Tao Beach pool, where he locked his radar on “Jericho” actress Ashley Scott. She, too, seemed resistant to his charms. So, that night it was back to Lavo, where we watched Foxx pull up to the bumper of another blond.

SMH.
