openentrance – What's Really Going OnWhat's Really Going On

Now everyone has heard the reports that Scary Spice has claimed that Eddie Murphy (the man that owes me 9 dollars for Norbit) is the father of her baby.  Well if you read the It’s Yo Birthday post earlier then you would know today is Eddie Birthday.  Now yall know that Eddie has denied that baby all along how funny would it be to see his ass on Maury P show with a header:

The baby look like you and yall got the same birthday.

  

 

The brotha was upset! After Eddie Murphy did not win the Oscar on Sunday for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Dreamgirls, he and his girlfriend, Tracey Edmunds left the show.

By leaving early, he did not see Jennifer Hudson win for Best Supporting Actress and he also did not see the rest of the Dreamgirls cast perform.

It is easy for me to say I would have stuck around to show support, but I like to win even more than the next man, so I could also see myself bailing out.

Is he wrong for that?

 

Despite the protests, Eddie Murphy held the top spot at the box office with his new movie Norbit, bringing in $31.3 million in the first weekend. Norbit was able to bring in more than $20 million more than the second place movie for the weekend.

This is the 14th #1 movie for Eddie Murphy. That is a lot and something that goes under the radar. I wonder how many other actors have a resume like that. That’s solid. Congrats Eddie!

 The Academy Awards luncheon was yesterday and several stars were in attendance as they are nominated for awards.

Best Actor in a leading role: Will Smith in “Pursuit of Happyness”: and Forest Whitaker in “The Last King of Scotland.”

Best Actress in a Supporting role: Jennifer Hudson in “Dreamgirls” (She won this award last week at the Director’s Guild awards see here.)

Best Actor in a Supporting Role: Eddie Murphy in “Dreamgirls” and Djimon Hounsou in “Blood Diamond.”

Eddie Murphy’s new movie Norbit is being protested by activist and community leaders nationwide as they say his portrayal of a “Fat black woman” is direspectful and humiliating to black women. This pic is pretty ridiculous.

Eddie you are funnier than that! Although I did think Nutty Professor was a hilarious movie, it seems that in this movie his portrayal of multiple characters has crossed the line. Afrobella writes a pretty interesting article on the topic here.

Eddie should take a look here if he wants an example of people to portray.
