Feb.27.2007 Eddie Murphy is totally blaming Norbit
Some handsome, witty prophet (much more handsome than Nostradamus…about equally witty) predicted that Eddie Murphy would be really pissed at his Oscar loss. Once again, the Blog of Hilarity is just a bit ahead of the rest when it comes to breaking news.
-Eddie Murphy really wanted to win that Oscar. There are a bevy of transvestites in Hollywood strewn all over the streets to prove that point.
According to Fox News…
Eddie Murphy did not like losing the Academy Award for best supporting actor to Alan Arkin Sunday night. He split the show — exit stage left! — as soon as Arkin’s name was announced.
Murphy didn’t stay to see Jennifer Hudson win best supporting actress in “Dreamgirls” or his fellow castmates Hudson, Beyonce, Keith Robinson and Anika Noni Rose perform the show’s nominated songs in a stellar staging by “Dreamgirls” director/writer Bill Condon, who wasn’t an Oscar nominee.
From the beginning, Murphy acted as a loner. He was the lone holdout at the Cannes Film Festival last year when 20 minutes of the movie was shown to distributors and press.
Clearly, Eddie will need to do something more to win an Oscar. Something unprecedented. What he must do is merge the power of box-office juggernaut Eddie Murphy in all his fat-suited glory with the marginal abilities of dramatic Eddie Murphy. I suggest adapting Othello into a film in which Murphy, in fat-suit, woman-suit, and no-suit, plays all of the leading roles. The dramatic turn of when no-suit Othello smothers woman-suit Desdemona after fat-suited Eddie Murphy’s Iago’s manipulation will truly be a cinematic tour de force that no one else short of Martin Lawrence or the Wayans Brothers could capture on celluloid.
