Eddie Murphy on Iconic Celebrity Filled Photo, $100,000 Bet with Richard Pryor & New Christmas Movie

Eddie talks about his love of reality shows, realizing his age while filming Beverly Hills Cop 4, an amazing photograph he took with a bunch of legendary stars in 1990 at a tribute to Sammy Davis Jr., meeting Frank Sinatra, having dinner with Lola Falana, the rumor that Stevie Wonder isn’t actually blind, his new movie Candy Cane Lane, his favorite holiday movies, the gifts he gets from his kids, his $100,000 bet with Richard Pryor, and daring Dick Cavett to do crazy things in the 80s.

Eddie is literally a time machine to one of the greatest era's in Hollywood history the 80's and early 90's. When nobody had access to the stars but stars themselves.

15 minutes is not long enough with the great Eddie Murphy

[nostuh]

Eddie doesn't need to go practice for a comedy special. He can just go up on stage and tell stories. Always love his interviews when he goes down memory lane.

[tedium]

Eddie has the best old Hollywood stories. Can't wait for him to write a book about his life.

[barbarag]

Eddie’s laugh is eternally youthful! It’s like watching a little boy laugh. Pure joy.

This is a brilliant interview because Eddie is notoriously quiet in interviews and Jimmy does such a good job of bringing him out of his shell in this one.

[johndaily]

That was, hands down, one of the most interesting, insightful interviews I've seen in years. What a generous guest, and it was a welcome change not to have a host interrupting an answer with another question. All he did was let Eddie reminisce, and we got to reap the rewards. I could have watched another hour.

[Loki_Yogi]

Eddie Murphy is like a time machine. My nostalgia goes into high gear when I see him. I could listen to him tell stories about his life for hours. 🤣🙏

I was an 80s kid growing up watching Eddie Murphy. I am in my 40s now and he looks younger than me. Dude is stuck at 35 I swear. Looking great brother 💪🏽

[RockPowerUSA]

You can't go wrong with Eddie Murphy. He's all grown up now and still funny. Still very cool and has the nerd in him we love.

[OrdinaryVisionaries]

This was a very funny segment. Jimmy is the perfect host to bring out the sweet, charming, innocent sense of humor that Eddie just exudes naturally. No joke set ups, just pure fun. Loved that he’s crazy about Christmas movies. Cracked up when he said, “Well, everybody likes to get presents!” And the anecdotes abut Stevie Wonder were priceless, especially that he uses echo-location by snapping his fingers. Hope he has him more often!

[peacefullyfe]

Smiled and laughed through the whole interview. His back-in-the-day stories are priceless🤣🤣❤️

[marqueswofford]

“Why are you doing this” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 this guy is a true legend man. Love Eddie

[angeleyes]

Eddie is so cool and laid back! It's crazy listening to his story how he use to be the new kid around legends and now he is the seasoned legend. His entire demeanor just radiates it.

[pdxpete]

Eddie doesn't age, he looks fantastic!

[marcdejean]

Eddie is such a great story teller. I watched that Eddy Grant story at least 10x and laughed until I cry each time.

[theoriginalmsj]

Eddie needs a story series. I would watch it over and over.

[rdwngdblkbrd]

This is the "BEST" interview I have seen, in a very very long time.
I literally watched it 4times, back to back.
Eddie needs to be out like this, More.
Very Enjoyable!!!

I could listen to Eddie Murphy tell stories for hours! He's one of the rare people who are funny without trying..
