African-American film actor Eddie Murphy (1961) began his career as a stand-up comedian. He made his television debut on Saturday Night Live. From the early 1980s, he devoted himself to acting in comedies. With his first film roles in 48 Hrs. (Walter Hill, 1982) and Trading Places (John Landis, 1983), he was already breaking through. This was followed by the hits Beverly Hills Cop (Martin Brest, 1984) and Coming to America (John Landis, 1988). His popularity waned in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but he made a comeback with The Nutty Professor (Tom Shadyac, 1996). Also a versatile voice actor, he voiced the donkey in Shrek (Andrew Adamson, Vicky Jenson, 2001) and the Chinese dragon in Mulan (Barry Cook, Tom Bancroft, 1998).
Edward Regan Murphy was born in 1961 in Brooklyn, New York, to Lillian Laney, a telephone operator, and Charles Edward Murphy, a transit police officer who was also an amateur comedian and actor. After his father died when Eddie was eight, his mother married Vernon Lynch, a foreman at a Breyer's Ice Cream plant. His brothers are Charlie Murphy and Vernon Lynch Jr. A bright kid growing up in the streets of New York, Eddie had aspirations of being in show business. His sense of humour made him stand out amongst his classmates at Roosevelt Junior-Senior High School. When he was fifteen, Murphy listened to Richard Pryor's comedy album 'That Nigger's Crazy', which inspired his decision to become a comedian. Murphy started to work as a stand-up comic in the lower part of New York, wooing audiences with his dead-on impressions of celebrities and outlooks on life. At 19, he was hired as one of the backup performers on the TV comedy show Saturday Night Live. Murphy exercised his comedic abilities by impersonating African American figures and originating some of the show's most memorable characters: Velvet Jones, inner-city kiddie host Mr. Robinson, and sourball celebrity Gumby. Murphy made his feature film debut in 48 Hrs. (Walter Hill, 1982), alongside Nick Nolte. The two's comedic and antagonistic chemistry, alongside Murphy's believable performance as a streetwise convict aiding a bitter, ageing cop, won over critics and audiences. The next year, Murphy went two for two, with another hit, Trading Places (John Landis, 1983) with Dan Aykroyd. That same year, the standup album 'Eddie Murphy, Comedian' won a Grammy. Beverly Hills Cop (Martin Brest, 1984) became one of the biggest blockbusters of the decade. It made Murphy a box-office superstar and a celebrity worldwide. Murphy's performance as a young Detroit cop in pursuit of his friend's murderers also earned him a third consecutive Golden Globe nomination. Axel Foley became one of Murphy's signature characters. On top of his game, Murphy was unfazed by his success, that is until his box office appeal and choices in scripts resulted in a spotty mix of hits and misses into the late 1980s and early 1990s. Films like The Golden Child (Michael Ritchie, 1986) and Beverly Hills Cop II (Tony Scott, 1987) were critically panned but were still massive draws at the box office. John Landis directed Murphy again in the hit Coming to America (John Landis, 1988) which allowed him to play an abundance of characters. Some of which he essayed so well that he was utterly unrecognisable. In 1989, Murphy found failure with his directorial debut, Harlem Nights (Eddie Murphy, 1989). Another 48 Hrs. (Walter Hill, 1990), his turn as a hopeless romantic in Boomerang (Reginald Hudlin, 1992) and as a suave vampire in Vampire In Brooklyn (Wes Craven, 1995) did little to resuscitate his career.
His remake of Jerry Lewis's The Nutty Professor (Tom Shadyac, 1996) brought Eddie Murphy's drawing power back into fruition. Hal Erickson at AllMovie: "the picture casts Murphy as Dr. Sherman Klump, an obese, klutzy scientist who transforms himself into Buddy Love, a self-obsessed narcissist and a hit with women. As an added surprise, Murphy doubles up his roles as Sherman and Buddy by playing each member of the Klump family (beneath piles and piles of latex). The Nutty Professor grossed dollar one and topped all of Murphy's prior efforts, earning well up into the hundreds of millions and pointing the actor in a more family-friendly direction. " From there, Murphy rebounded with occasional hits and misses but has long proven himself as a skilled comedic actor with a laudable range pertaining to characterisations and mannerisms. Though he has grown up a lot since his fast-lane rise as a superstar in the 1980s, Murphy has lived the Hollywood lifestyle with controversy, criticism, scandal, and the admiration of millions worldwide for his talents. As Murphy matured throughout the years, he settled down with more family-oriented humour with Dr. Dolittle (Betty Thomas, 1998), the animation film Mulan (Tony Bancroft, Barry Cook, 1998), Bowfinger (Frank Oz, 1999) with Steve Martin, and the animated smash Shrek (Andrew Adamson, Vicky Jenson, 2001), in a supporting role that showcased Murphy's comedic personality and charm. In the next years, he further starred in the hits The Haunted Mansion (Rob Minkoff, 2003), and Shrek 2 (Andrew Adamson, Kelly Asbury, Conrad Vernon, 2004). For the musical Dreamgirls (Bill Condon, 2006), he was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar. The film adaptation features an ensemble cast including Jamie Foxx, Beyoncé Knowles, Eddie Murphy, Jennifer Hudson, and Danny Glover. Murphy was a revelation as James Thunder Early, an R&B vocal sensation for whom the titular divas are hired to sing backup. His later films include Norbit (Brian Robbins, 2007), Shrek the Third (Chris Miller, Raman Hui, 2007), and Shrek Forever After (Mike Mitchell, 2010). In October 2019, Murphy produced and starred in the biographical comedy Dolemite Is My Name (Craig Brewer, 2019) as Rudy Ray Moore. The film received overwhelming critical acclaim. In December 2019, Murphy returned to Saturday Night Live to promote Dolemite; this was his first time hosting since 1984. Murphy, Arsenio Hall and James Earl Jones reprised their roles in the Coming to America sequel Coming 2 America (Craig Brewer, 2021). Eddie Murphy was married to Nicole Mitchell Murphy from 1993 to 2006. Murphy has ten children.

African-American film actor Eddie Murphy (1961) began his career as a stand-up comedian. He made his television debut on Saturday Night Live. From the early 1980s, he devoted himself to acting in comedies. With his first film roles in 48 Hrs. (Walter Hill, 1982) and Trading Places (John Landis, 1983), he was already breaking through. This was followed by the hits Beverly Hills Cop (Martin Brest, 1984) and Coming to America (John Landis, 1988). His popularity waned in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but he made a comeback with The Nutty Professor (Tom Shadyac, 1996). Also a versatile voice actor, he voiced the donkey in Shrek (Andrew Adamson, Vicky Jenson, 2001) and the Chinese dragon in Mulan (Barry Cook, Tom Bancroft, 1998).
Edward Regan Murphy was born in 1961 in Brooklyn, New York, to Lillian Laney, a telephone operator, and Charles Edward Murphy, a transit police officer who was also an amateur comedian and actor. After his father died when Eddie was eight, his mother married Vernon Lynch, a foreman at a Breyer's Ice Cream plant. His brothers are Charlie Murphy and Vernon Lynch Jr. A bright kid growing up in the streets of New York, Eddie had aspirations of being in show business. His sense of humour made him stand out amongst his classmates at Roosevelt Junior-Senior High School. When he was fifteen, Murphy listened to Richard Pryor's comedy album 'That Nigger's Crazy', which inspired his decision to become a comedian. Murphy started to work as a stand-up comic in the lower part of New York, wooing audiences with his dead-on impressions of celebrities and outlooks on life. At 19, he was hired as one of the backup performers on the TV comedy show Saturday Night Live. Murphy exercised his comedic abilities by impersonating African American figures and originating some of the show's most memorable characters: Velvet Jones, inner-city kiddie host Mr. Robinson, and sourball celebrity Gumby. Murphy made his feature film debut in 48 Hrs. (Walter Hill, 1982), alongside Nick Nolte. The two's comedic and antagonistic chemistry, alongside Murphy's believable performance as a streetwise convict aiding a bitter, ageing cop, won over critics and audiences. The next year, Murphy went two for two, with another hit, Trading Places (John Landis, 1983) with Dan Aykroyd. That same year, the standup album 'Eddie Murphy, Comedian' won a Grammy. Beverly Hills Cop (Martin Brest, 1984) became one of the biggest blockbusters of the decade. It made Murphy a box-office superstar and a celebrity worldwide. Murphy's performance as a young Detroit cop in pursuit of his friend's murderers also earned him a third consecutive Golden Globe nomination. Axel Foley became one of Murphy's signature characters. On top of his game, Murphy was unfazed by his success, that is until his box office appeal and choices in scripts resulted in a spotty mix of hits and misses into the late 1980s and early 1990s. Films like The Golden Child (Michael Ritchie, 1986) and Beverly Hills Cop II (Tony Scott, 1987) were critically panned but were still massive draws at the box office. John Landis directed Murphy again in the hit Coming to America (John Landis, 1988) which allowed him to play an abundance of characters. Some of which he essayed so well that he was utterly unrecognisable. In 1989, Murphy found failure with his directorial debut, Harlem Nights (Eddie Murphy, 1989). Another 48 Hrs. (Walter Hill, 1990), his turn as a hopeless romantic in Boomerang (Reginald Hudlin, 1992) and as a suave vampire in Vampire In Brooklyn (Wes Craven, 1995) did little to resuscitate his career.
His remake of Jerry Lewis's The Nutty Professor (Tom Shadyac, 1996) brought Eddie Murphy's drawing power back into fruition. Hal Erickson at AllMovie: "the picture casts Murphy as Dr. Sherman Klump, an obese, klutzy scientist who transforms himself into Buddy Love, a self-obsessed narcissist and a hit with women. As an added surprise, Murphy doubles up his roles as Sherman and Buddy by playing each member of the Klump family (beneath piles and piles of latex). The Nutty Professor grossed dollar one and topped all of Murphy's prior efforts, earning well up into the hundreds of millions and pointing the actor in a more family-friendly direction. " From there, Murphy rebounded with occasional hits and misses but has long proven himself as a skilled comedic actor with a laudable range pertaining to characterisations and mannerisms. Though he has grown up a lot since his fast-lane rise as a superstar in the 1980s, Murphy has lived the Hollywood lifestyle with controversy, criticism, scandal, and the admiration of millions worldwide for his talents. As Murphy matured throughout the years, he settled down with more family-oriented humour with Dr. Dolittle (Betty Thomas, 1998), the animation film Mulan (Tony Bancroft, Barry Cook, 1998), Bowfinger (Frank Oz, 1999) with Steve Martin, and the animated smash Shrek (Andrew Adamson, Vicky Jenson, 2001), in a supporting role that showcased Murphy's comedic personality and charm. In the next years, he further starred in the hits The Haunted Mansion (Rob Minkoff, 2003), and Shrek 2 (Andrew Adamson, Kelly Asbury, Conrad Vernon, 2004). For the musical Dreamgirls (Bill Condon, 2006), he was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar. The film adaptation features an ensemble cast including Jamie Foxx, Beyoncé Knowles, Eddie Murphy, Jennifer Hudson, and Danny Glover. Murphy was a revelation as James Thunder Early, an R&B vocal sensation for whom the titular divas are hired to sing backup. His later films include Norbit (Brian Robbins, 2007), Shrek the Third (Chris Miller, Raman Hui, 2007), and Shrek Forever After (Mike Mitchell, 2010). In October 2019, Murphy produced and starred in the biographical comedy Dolemite Is My Name (Craig Brewer, 2019) as Rudy Ray Moore. The film received overwhelming critical acclaim. In December 2019, Murphy returned to Saturday Night Live to promote Dolemite; this was his first time hosting since 1984. Murphy, Arsenio Hall and James Earl Jones reprised their roles in the Coming to America sequel Coming 2 America (Craig Brewer, 2021). Eddie Murphy was married to Nicole Mitchell Murphy from 1993 to 2006. Murphy has ten children.

I miss my boy.
Today is the six-monthiversary of the day we decided to fall in love. :)
He made the cutest plan to watch a movie "together" and sent me all the necessary components of said watching period. Milk Duds, Mike & Ikes, money to buy grapes (my favorite movie food), caaaake!, and the movie: Norbit. :)
What a nice young man I've found.
Tidbits*: I was wearing his shirt and reading his old letters when, low an behold, the mailman knocked on my door! "For me?!" "Yes ma'am!" And so I proceeded to unpack the contents of the above mentioned box.

Biografía
Eddie Murphy comenzó su carrera a la temprana edad de 3 años. Fue contratado como humorista por la cadena de televisión NBC de Estados Unidos para la cárcel de Alcatraz en San Francisco, conocido como el dedotes quien mencionaba a cada 3 segundos CHIWE en el programa Saturday Night Live. Abandonó el programa durante la temporada 1983-1984. En 1993 graba una canción con Michael Jackson. Después de su paso por Saturday Night Live, protagonizó varias películas, entre ellas Superdetective en Hollywood, por la que fue nominado al Globo de Oro al mejor actor de comedia. También fue nominado por las películas Límite: 48 horas, Entre pillos anda el juego y El profesor chiflado. En 2007, finalmente ganó el Globo de Oro como mejor actor de reparto por su papel del ficticio cantante de soul James "Thunder" Early en la película Dreamgirls, recibiendo también una nominación al Óscar por el mismo papel.
Murphy se destaca como un actor comediante con una gran espontaneidad y empatía.
En el año 1997 fue sorprendido en su auto con un travesti, a quien detuvo la policía. "Sólo intentaba ser un buen samaritano", justificó Murphy el episodio, que tuvo lugar el viernes a las 4.45 de la madrugada en el bulevar Santa Mónica, en el barrio West Hollywood de Los Angeles. Allí, Murphy (36 años, casado, tres hijos, un caché de más de 15 millones de dólares por película) detuvo su Toyota Land Cruiser y dejó subir a Atisone Seuili (21 años, apariencia de bella mujer, sexo indefinido). Cuando recorrieron unos tres kilómetros, policías que venían siguiendo el auto los hicieron parar.
Como actor de voz para películas de animación, prestó su voz a Asno en Shrek y sus secuelas, y al dragón Mushu en la película de Disney, Mulan.
Estuvo saliendo con la cantante, Mel B pero rompió con ella al saber que estaba embarazada.
El 1 de enero de 2008 se casa con la productora Tracey Edmonds en Bora Bora, se separan una semana después.
El 4 de noviembre de 2010, la Revista Forbes publicó que Murphy ocupó el segundo lugar en su lista como el segundo actor más taquillero de Hollywood, detrás del cómico Will Ferrell.
No obstante, Murphy encabeza la lista de las mayores fiascos con su film Pluto Nash (2002), según la lista publicada por The Hollywood Reporter. La comedia futurista protagonizada por Eddie Murphy contó con un presupuesto de cerca de 100 millones de dólares, de los que sólo consiguió recuperar 5 tras su estreno en las salas de cine de EE UU.
De acuerdo con Forbes, las producciones lideradas por Murphy recaudaron entre taquilla y vídeo doméstico $ 4,45 dólares por cada dólar cobrado por el intérprete entre junio de 2009 y junio de 2010. Sin embargo, la revista no contabiliza los trabajos en el sector de la animación, por lo que descarta la saga "Shrek" en los resultados de Murphy, quien pone voz al burro en la versión en inglés. Con ello sería bastante probable que fuera el actor más taquillero en la industria de Hollywood.
En acción real, el protagonista de "Beverly Hills Cop" cosechó resultados discretos con "Imagine That", "Meet Dave" y "Norbit".
[editar] Carrera musical
Mucho menos conocida y menos brillante, es la carrera de Eddie Murphy en el medio musical. Su hit de 1985, “Party All the Time”, su segundo sencillo personal e incluido en su álbum How Could It Be , alcanzó un notable y sorprendente Nº 2 en la lista de Billboard Hot 100. Es un tema compuesto y producido por Rick James, quien además canta en los coros. Stevie Wonder también fue invitado y participó en la producción de algunos temas del mismo disco, con la finalidad de asegurarse algún éxito.
Sin embargo, fue el único suceso en listas que tuvo Murphy, más dedicado a su carrera cinematográfica. Desde 1993, no ha vuelto a un estudio de grabación.
En total, su discografía se reduce a cinco álbumes de estudio: Eddie Murphy (1982), Comedian (1983), How Could It Be (1985), So Happy (1989) y Love's Alright (1993), así como ocho sencillos, todos relacionados de alguna forma con el amor, la comedia y la diversión.
“Put Your Mouth on Me”, incluido en So Happy (1989), fue su segundo mayor éxito al llegar al Nº 27 en Billboard.

I was perusing the BBC film diary earlier today, to see what gems of cinematic entertainment are heading our way this year:
There are a number that I'm dreading... 'Norbit' - another film where Eddie Murphy plays more than one character - I don't get why he does that, it seems, in every film. Another Mr Bean movie, another Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, another Pirates of the Caribbean film, Ocean's Thirteen (which can't be as bad as the second half of Ocean's Twelve), another Die Hard film and the Jim Carrey-less sequel to 'Bruce Almighty'.
The description of 'Music And Lyrics By', in fact, the first five words of the description drove fear into my heart as well: "Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore play, respectively, a washed up composer and the girl who inspires him in the new rom-com from Miss Congeniality helmer Marc Lawrence."
The strangest casting decision of the year seems to be in 'Reign Over Me', the story of a grieving man who lost his family on September 11th. The aforementioned man will be played by Adam Sandler. I hope it's really good, perhaps Mr S has found a type of film/role that he's more suited to than the hideous stuff he's done in the past.
To stop being so negative, there are quite a few films I'm eagerly anticipating: 'Casablanca' is being re-issued for Valentine's Day, as it 'Dirty Dancing' (which I'm less excited about). I shall be paying money to see 'Hot Fuzz', the (hopefully less bloody) follow up to Shaun of the Dead and the film adaptation of the book 'Fast Food Nation', billed as "a powerful drama tracing the journey of a burger through a chain of human stories".
The film I'm eagerly awaiting for 2007 however is 'The Simpsons Movie'. If the trailers are anything to go by, it should be very very funny.
The photo is of a small selection of my videos and DVDs.
