Jamie Foxx’s Halloween party ended with deputies at the door. On Saturday, November 7, a guest was reportedly stabbed at his Thousand Oaks, California mansion during SKVLK Fest, and hundreds of costumed guests were sent home. It is the second year in a row that the family’s Halloween night has made headlines for the wrong reason.
The Breakdown
Here is what the reports say so far, according to AllHipHop.
- A Ventura County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson told the Daily Mail that deputies responded “for a party call” and “there was a juvenile arrested.”
- TMZ reported that a guest’s neck wound was treated at the scene and that a suspect was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
- Images and video described in the reporting showed people in handcuffs while guests were told to leave.
- A photograph showed a sign at the event that read “No Real or Fake Weapons.”
That sign hits different now. Somebody clearly saw trouble as a possibility before the night even started.
What SKVLK Fest Is
SKVLK Fest is the Halloween event Foxx hosts with his daughter Anelise. It mixes live music, carnival rides and costumes. This year’s party had been pushed back from October 31 because of rain.
The lineup had Hip Hop in it too. Foxx shared posts highlighting Offset, DJ Stevie J and OhGeesy, and he praised Anelise for putting the night together. The festival’s official performer archive lists GloRilla, Sexyy Red, Tyga and Ty Dolla $ign among past guests, so this is not some small backyard get together.
The GloRilla Bottle Flashback
This is not the first time SKVLK Fest has gone sideways. In October 2025, someone threw a bottle toward GloRilla while she performed. That party was an invite only gathering for teens and young adults at the same Southern California property.
Foxx grabbed the microphone and called out the crowd. During that incident he said:
“Why would you throw something at the stage, man? Why? This is for free!”
He asked why a guest would act that way in his home and briefly threatened to shut the party down. Once order was restored, he encouraged GloRilla to keep performing, and she did.
What We Don’t Know
The available reports do not say what led to the confrontation. It is also unclear whether Foxx was there when it happened. We are not going to guess at either one.
The timing is notable, too. The incident came days after Foxx welcomed his third child, his first with girlfriend Alyce Huckstepp. The couple announced the pregnancy in May. Anelise is his younger daughter, and he is also father to Corinne Foxx.
The Takeaway
A free party with big names and hundreds of guests is a hard thing to control, and two years of trouble make that plain. We will be watching to see what the sheriff’s office says next and whether SKVLK Fest looks different next Halloween.
