Jamie Foxx may have apologized for those lovely things he said about Miley Cyrus, but her dad isn't soon to forget the incident.

"It was hurtful, there wasn't nothing funny about it, and quite frankly, I think if I said those things about his daughter he might not find it so comedic," Billy Ray Cyrus says on The Bonnie Hunt Show today.

The proud papa regularly shows his support of his cash cow daughter, and they costar together on Hannah Montana.

Only days ago, Foxx went on a tirade about the tween queen on his Sirius radio show, suggesting the starlet "make a sex tape" and "do some heroin." The Oscar winner quickly had an about-face and apologized to Cyrus publicly on The Tonight Show, admitting he didn't "mean any of it."
