After Eddie Murphy's dig at Bill Cosby's expense during his 'Saturday Night Live' monologue, Cosby's rep slams Murphy as a 'Hollywood slave.'
A spokesman for Bill Cosby has gone off on Eddie Murphy, calling him a “Hollywood slave” and worse after Murphy made a joke about Cosby during his “Saturday Night Live” monologue this past weekend.
The “Dolemite Is My Name” star returned to host the NBC show 35 years after leaving its cast to pursue a red-hot film career. Noting Saturday night that he had recently welcomed his 10th son, Murphy joked, “If you were to tell me 30 years ago that I would be this boring, stay-at-home house dad and Bill Cosby would be in jail — even I woulda took that bet.”
Mimicking Cosby, Murphy said, “‘Who is America’s Dad now?’” Former sitcom star Cosby is serving a 10-year sentence for sexual assault.Advertisement “Mr. Cosby became the first Black to win an Emmy for his role in I Spy and Mr. Cosby broke color barriers in the Entertainment Industry, so that Blacks like Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappell, Kevin Hart and et al., could have an opportunity to showcase their talents for many generations to come,” he said.
