Jamie Foxx has been forced to deny he is gay after shock jock Howard Stern escalated their war of words with a jibe about the actor/singer's sexuality.

The pair fell out last month when the Oscar-winner took offense following Stern's criticism of portly Precious star Gabourey Sidibe on his radio show. Foxx slammed his Sirius radio network colleague on his Foxxhole show last week, prompting a furious response from Stern, who poked fun at Foxx and dropped hints that he is homosexual.

Stern said, "My guess is we're probably not on the same team. I think he's playing for a way different team. I don't know what team he's on but it ain't my team."

And Foxx is not happy about the latest comments, labeling the DJ "Coward Stern".

He says, "I'm not gay. A lot of people say that I'm gay and that doesn't bother me, because I could eat a pizza in a male shower and not feel anything because I'm secure with myself. And I'm not gonna take that, Coward Stern. I'm not gonna take that from a person who has chronic gonorrhea."
