Netflix says "Dad Stop Embarrassing Me" is inspired by Jamie Foxx’s relationship with Corinne, who has been clear over the years that her father has long known how to make her cringe.
"There was a time when I was a cheerleader in high school," she told Yahoo! Entertainment last year. "It was like my senior game, and my dad shows up in the stands with my whole family, which was like 20 people, wearing shirts with my face on it."
They've carried on that dynamic on Fox's "Beat Shazam."
"My dad embarrasses me a lot," she continued. "You can see this on the show when my dad is doing too much, or he starts dancing, or we play, like, sexy songs and he starts — I don't even know — like, gyrating in the crowd. ... He's like a big kid, so it's a good time. It's not like working with an old man."
But then she thought again. "Well, he is an old man — he just thinks he's 25 years old."
