After firing off Bruce Jenner jokes when he hosted the 2015 iHeartRadio Music Awards, Jamie Foxx, 47, is slammed on social media.

During the awards event held at Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium on March 29, Foxx poked fun at the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star's reported decision to transition from male to female, which many people found transphobic.

"We got some ground-breaking performances here, too, tonight," Cameron Diaz's "Annie" co-star said. "We got Bruce Jenner, who will be here doing some musical performances. He's doing a his-and-her duet all by himself. Look, I'm just busting your balls while I still can."

Not only did the joke fail to impress the 2015 iHeart Radio Music Awards audience, according to Contact Music. It also earned Foxx a lot of criticisms on Twitter.

Jenner's daughter Kylie was reportedly attending the awards ceremony with her rapper boyfriend Tyga but it was not clear if she did because she was not seen on the red carpet that night, according to Daily Mail.

It is yet to be seen whether Foxx is willing to apologize for the joke or he is standing up for his comedic stunt. The Kardashian-Jenner clan has yet to comment on the issue, as well.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift is the biggest winner of the event having won Artist Of The Year beating Iggy Azalea, Luke Bryan, Ariana Grande and Sam Smith, who won the Best New Artist award.

Swift also won Best Lyrics for "Blank Space" and Song Of The Year for "Shake It Off."
