I think dark-skinned people in general, especially ones that don’t poison themselves with excessive drugs or alcohol throughout their life (like Mr. Murphy), keep their youthful look much longer than caucasians because their skin is naturally resistant to sun damage.

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.

At 11:50 Eddie mentions KZread videos he likes to watch. It sounded like "Mononee ah (phonetic spelling) and refers to "he." When I say it, KZread search finds a bunch of Monona videos. That's not right, because it's a guy. I've tried a few different spellings with no luck. Anyone know what KZread videos Eddie is talking about?

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!

We need hour of Eddie every night. Just sitting with Jimmy and chatting. Jimmy seemed to draw Eddie out in a very comfortable way. This was late night gold.

These Eddie Murphy interviews are pure gold. I am curious now if the date with Lola Falana inspired the scene in Boomerang with him having dinner with Eartha Kitt 🤔

How can you not love Eddie Murphy ❤ Can't wait for that Christmas movie to come out 😊

I could listen Eddie tell stories all day. That 15 minutes surely went quick.

Charlie Murphy told two stories about hanging with his brother that are now part of folklore. Can you imagine if Eddie unleashed about his own life? It would be amazing.

It's amazing to me that he can transform his characteristics so much because he seems so chilled in real life but on screen he is so animated....a true actor for sure.

He’s such a gentleman .. which seems like such a strange thing to say considering his comedy lol it’s great to hear his stories of the old days .. and that picture is crazy !!

When I was 13 my aunt gave me Eddie's first album (on vinyl, of course) and I have loved him for 40 years now. Just looking at him makes me smile.

Eddie Murphy is just an international treasure. What a living legend.

Eddy Murphy is such a classy man. He is a symbol of American cinematography. Good old days.

I am a Dave Chappelle fan but some of you claim that he is the best to ever do it. No he is not and even Dave will tell you that Eddie is the best to ever do it. Legends like Richard Pryor and Redd Foxx paved the way for Eddie but there is no one else quite like him. Eddie paid for Chris Rock to fly first class to go perform on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Eddie put Chris and Dave in his movies (Boomerang and Nutty Professor). Eddie was a legendary cast member on Saturday Night Live, was a legendary standup comedian, starred in iconic comedies (too many to name), was the voice of Donkey in Shrek, sang and danced in Dreamgirls and put out hit songs like "Party All The Time" in the 80's. Eddie is the GOAT and it's not even close. I could listen to him tell stories all day.

Comparing comedians is like comparing apples & oranges. Yes,apples and oranges. Different types of comics & comedy is so subjective. imo in terms of the art-form of Standup comedy, Dave is hands down the 🐐 but one would argue he specialized in it. Eddie quickly transitioned to the big screen and stole our hearts with a lot of classics. I would argue he is the 🐐 in that aspect.

Eddie is just naturally gifted at humor. Every time, funny as fk.

I will always love Eddie Murphy. The very first comedian or "stand up" comedian I ever heard. It was on cassette tape.. titled "Delirious". I was about 9 years old, pasty southern white girl.😆 My big brother got it, and he was 13. We listened to it over and over and over again. And I'm telling you that today at age 50, I can still quote (my brother can too) about half of that tape word for word.😅

I saw this on Kimmel. I'm also privileged to have seen Eddie's RAW Concert live back in 1986 in Richmond, Virginia (at the old Richmond Coliseum). Eddie's star rose at a very magical time, in that he came of age and superstardom when Hollywood was still "golden" - where a lot of the titans of show business were alive and well and still viable - as that group photo shows. They all were probably as awed of Eddie as he was of them!! I get the sense that, at moments, Eddie feels "alone" because of lot of them have passed on - even though he's revered by today's comics, entertainers and others in the spotlight. Long live Eddie Murphy!!

This needs to be 5 times as long! Or we need a show where eddie just sits and tells stories. Good stuff.

Wow, what an iconic picture.

I love how he wasn't too familiar with the spotify feature but definitely into KZread. It shows despite his young looks he really is of a different generation. The amount of entertainment royalty on that one photo alone is insane.

I came here from a comment on the Beatles “Now and Then” video. I, too, watch the video over and over, at least once a day. Eddie Murphy was hilarious on SNL back in the 80s when both of us were young. I’m almost 61 and it’s great to see Eddie at 62 still rockin’ and loving the Beatles. My favorite part of this interview was when Eddie said that he couldn’t run down the stairs that fast. I hear you, Eddie. I can’t either. But I love being in my early 60s and you look great, Eddie!
