Jones won the college comedy contest, but struggled for years to make it as a professional comic. When she was 19, Jones metat a comedy club, and he told her she was too young and inexperienced to be funny. Instead, he advised her to go out and live: Get hired. Get fired. Break hearts. Have her heart broken. Only, then, Foxx said, would she have something to talk about on stage.
