Not Retiring, Unfortunately
It's a sad day for all of us.
It turns out that Eddie Murphy is not retiring any time soon!
And, again, instead of coming up with new ideas, there's a sequel in the makes.
The latest is set to be Beverly Hills Cop 4!!! Yup, it's true.
And the supposed reason for the remake (aside from making a fat paycheck) is because Murphy didn't like the previous movie.
He says he's making part IV "because the third Beverly Hills Cop was horrible! I didn't want to leave it like that. The first two were cool and the third one was shitty. [Let's] get the franchise fixed again, clean up this old mess and do a good movie."
Yea, they sucked mostly because you were in it!
He adds, they can't "just leave Axel with his thumb up his ass from the last movie. Whatever happened to Axel Foley? He's sitting in Detroit with his thumb up his ass since Beverly Hills Cop III. Let's take those thumbs out and make a great movie!"
Someone sure likes to talk about thumbs and asses!
He continues, "When I go overseas they still call me Axel Foley — kids call me Axel Foley. I think that character, it resonated like no other movie, like nothing that I've done before."
As for the tone of the movie, Murphy wants to keep it true to Axel's way of being. So curse words and all will be included but they'll have to wait for the script to see if it'll be rated PG-13.
He adds, "I'll tell you what about profanity. Over the last 20 years or so, because of the studios, everybody figured out there's a PG-13 audience, you know, and that's the biggest piece of the pie. And a bunch of artists, myself included, got put in this PG-13 box — artists that aren't PG-13 artists!"
And here comes the envy, "Then comedies like Superbad, Knocked-Up, and Juno come out and people go, 'Oh, this is the brilliant shit.' And it's just people acting like real people, talking like real people. And those movies are making all the money now. Get back to the real shit."
Hah, looks like someone is a tad bit jealous!

This Is Not A Joke
A Few More Weeks
1st
Dude…he looks like an effin bobble head doll. How big is that cranium????Geesh.
3rd!
What about ingrid betancourt?
4TH
Eddie will be as successful as Perez clothing sold in FINE stores near you HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH
Eddy is funny and quite honestly making alot more bucks than us idiots that write on here.
whys his head GIANT in this pic? it looks like the top part was enlarged and the rest condensed, cuz look at the pop bottle… odd… but anywyas, he should retire.
"THUMB & ASSES" Good one Perez!!! hAHAHAHAHAHAHAahaaah
He doesn't sound jealous to me at all. It sounds as though he is acknowledging that Superbad, Juna, etc… are good movies because they have characters talking like real people. So Eddie wants to get back to the "real" stuff like in these movies.
I think I'm almost done with this site, and I've been around awhile. I enjoyed when Perez posted celebrity dirt and showed us how ludicrous it all was. Now he manufactures dirt and conspiracies when there are none (ie, all this recent Coldplay nonsense). It all seems kind of weak and a long way from what this site used to be.
Have any of you seen Bev. Hills Cop, the 1st one? Funniest thing ever!! "Banana in the tailpipe", "Yes, I think that would be beessst". Come on, a hell of a lot funnier than anything this prick says. Have you seen him on I Love the Millenium. Commentators are meant to be funny on that show. Ugh.
eddie murphy sucks.. i miss great stuff like Eddie Murphy RAW and the greatest comedy ever coming to america lol
Uh, yeah, because everyone talks like Juno.
yep, i'm w/ steve (posted above)…there is no jealousy here, perez, your site is losing its luster; the bigger your head gets, the less people like you. stop being a dick, if you're gonna make up something, at least be funny about it cuz this fake drama you manufacture is bullshit and boring…the superficial guy is way funnier than you and always shows boobs…
I don't like the fact that he bashed the last installment of Beverly Hills Cop, because everyone that I have ever talked to loves only the third film. It was hilarious and don't know what he means by saying it left Axel Foley with his thumb up his ass?? He was injured! If he want's something to be angry about maybe he should watch Norbit or the Nutty Professor!! Leave BHC3 Alone!!! (the only decent movies he has EVER done)
God, look at all that dick in those pants. i would love to suck him until he explodes all over my face.
that's not jealous at all. you're the one that's jealous, perez. a man as fine as eddie would NEVER give you the time of day, not even if you were a tranny.
Wow, just look at his fabulous package! Filling out those white pants.
Sorry Perez–but Eddie Murphy is one of the funniest actors EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
You really need to get in touch with your fans, we all love him!
HE WAS JUST NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR LAST YEAR! WHY DOES HE NEED TO RETIRE, FATASS???
Geez people…why all the hate? I have been entertained by Eddie Murphy and believe he has it in him to make me laugh again. He had kids for crying out loud, probably made him want to "grow up"a bit. I, for one, would love to see him back to his old ways. Rude and crude!
tis is great. eddie is the greatest comedian. cant no comedian top raw and it isnt from my own generation. that just goes to say something to all you haters out there i think your the one that is jealous!!
wtf is your issue with him? at least he has a REAL profession, unlike, oh idk…. blogging?
i dont think he is a tad bit jealous. its sounds to me like he made a pretty decent statement.
they're not calling him Axel overseas, they're saying "hey Asshole."
who cares about Eddie Murphy……we want to hear the trash about Christie Brinkley's porn-addicted husband and how he left $300k under a rock for that girl in Long Island.
VOTE FOR MCCAIN!!!!! LOOK AT WHAT OUR DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS HAS DONE! NOTHING! THEY HAVE LOWER APPROVAL RATINGS THAN BUSH!
Ok Perez, I don't know what you're talking about. I mean I love what you write, but the first two Beverly Hills Cop movies were really good and a lot of people liked them. Also Eddie Murphey is a great actor who's been in tons of movies that are for the most part, really great. I enjoy him I don't know why you're hating on him.
looks like Eddie is packing some meat there. Looks like a nice size bulge. Are all black guys that big?
Re: Steve – Right! I totally agree. I enjoyed it for awhile, but now it's just like he's just talking shit about everyone. It's not even funny to me anymore and actually, quite offensive, especially when he talks about politics. It's just like he makes crap up about people to start stuff and sound interesting. Perez, your site was MUCH better before you started shit talking!
So ugly, so freaking ugly!
he doesnt sound jealous, for the past 15 years, Eddie has been making the movies that he could make…you cant just go in and be like, "im doing this that and this and you're going to pay for it." if he wanted work he had to put on a fat suit and shuck and jive with the rest of them. Since EVERYTHING goes in circles, R- rated comedies are back mainly because that 18-35 demo wants the swears again. God, get off eddies back. Maybe you are jealous because youve made a career off talking shit about people who actually have lives. BTW…hot topic?? so fucking ridiculous. Yeah that would have been cool…10 years ago when Hot Topic was alternative…its a joke now…i think you have too many gays around you telling you the wrong things are fierce.
…at least she's wearing a HOT shirt!
Jealous? Would that happen to be you Chub P? Once again Eddie Murphy did more by your age than will do in your entire life. It's amazing that you actually think you matter. Maybe today but in the future? Not at all likely.. Let's all see what Chub P is doing at 50.
new of making a beverly hills cop 4.. welcome to two months ago.. where have you been perez… eating too many twinkies?
What the hell did he ever do to you Perez? Eddy should have won the Oscar for the first Nutty Professor — if it had been Jim Carrey's characters you bet HE would have won. You come across a bit racist at times dude, like writing "cute" over Shiloh's face & ignoring the equally lovely Zahara. All your bands REEK of White envy on your part, all your "bitches" Paris Hilton et al ALL WHITE, while you hate on Beyonce…. You should check yourself….
omg i hate him! I want to bash every billboard i see of his stupid movie
Eddie may be making more money than any of us but it's apparent that his money is looking funny since he is considering another sequel to B.H's cop. The guy is washed up and need to make a check besides, with those children has, he needs to make child support monthly on time as scheduled
Eddie is right! Get back to the real shit. Movies like Juno and Knocked Up are overrated and are not as clever as people make out to be. It's not innovative at all. Good thing Eddie is is offering a refreshing viewpoint. Why are you hating Perez??
Great comments about the trannies Perez!!!!!
Perez's ass looks like chocolate chip dough
Wow, I actually agree with the crossdresser on something. Juno, Superbad and knocked up are all WAY overrated!!!!!!! You have to be an idiot to find them very funny. Hollywood is out of ideas so they push stuff like that out of desperation. Beverly Hills Cop….now that's humor! Get back to the real (funny) shit!
ummmm he raises a good point….go watch george carlin & the old school saturday night live……comedy sucks nowadays and directors pander to 16 year olds blahhhh
It's not bad enough that Perez smokes pole….but he's going to rip apart an icon…..choke on some dick flame boy
Perez, always remember, nobody likes jealous gay peple either
look at those damn little hands and those nails on that pepsi bottle! He probably is a trannie himself.
Actually he's wrong. The 2nd BHC kinda sucked too. I never saw the 3rd. I don't know how he thinks he can improve on it though. The idea is old and dried up. Make something original.
FUCK THAT BEVERLY HILLS COCK, HE DOSEN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF HIS OWN CHILD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They could do a sequel with his thumb up his ass, and a tranny's mouth sucking his cock.
I never saw those movies he refers to, but he does have a point. Once they take all the violence and cursing out of a movie, it kind of sucks. Look at T2, after the first one was criticised for so much violence, they made a point to mention how they were cutting back on the violence (by wounding and/or maiming people in the movie instead of killing them), and it took away from the movie…or it wasn't as good as the first one. I say make the movie you want and let the theaters worry about keeping the kids from seeing it. Hell, most of them have seen it all before anyway. NBFD!
Dear Eddie Murphy,
It takes a good actor to be able to PULL off acting like they're "a real person" talking like "real every day people" and keep it hilarious. That's why people enjoy those movies. Not some stupid franchise that clearly died at the third movie, thanks
Can I just ask what the hell you have against him?
Dear Perez,
The top 10 contenders for Emmys in the actor, supporting actor… blah blah those categories were released. And guess what- this dude wasn't on it! He sucks. Nobody cares about him. I would actually like to read about someone successful and talented for a change. I realize they tend to be boring but you can just make fun of their clothes or draw some coke on their face. Okay? Thanks!
DO YA THING EDDIE
YAY I DIDNT WANT HIM TO RETIRE!!! Hes a great actor!! WOO
damn let the black man work even tho he's attracted to transexuals and is a deadbeat for a father but stop hatin. we need black men doing shit w/ their lifes HATERS
Eddie knows what he's talking about…………

Eddie Murphy, jealous? The man probably uses $100 bills for tissues. I highly doubt he's jealous of anyone.
Perez, I love this site and you are usually pretty right on about most celebs. But when you go off like this on someone like Eddie Murphy…..you just seem ignorant and uninformed.
And he's absolutly right about BHCIII, it stunk in comparison to the others (I actually kind of liked it, but is wasn't nearly as good as the first two.)
I think he's right about the state of the movies as well. He did a very smart thing…he chose to do family type films when a "R" rating was practically a kiss of death for a comedy. And he was very successful doing family films and some comedies–like "Bowfinger" (If you haven't seen that, please DO!). Now that "R" comedies are "back", he wants to do that again. The man made some of the funniest "R" rated comedies EVER. I would love to see him do stuff like that again….he's brilliant.
Re: david – disgusting and hilarious.
And Perez, you say Matthew McConaughey has stumpy arms.
Re: SARAH – Sarah, #60 , looks like you just got owned by someone using your name.
Don't be thick, Perez. Eddie Murphy was great in Beverly Hills Cop.
Not jealous at all, dumb ass…does sucking cock interfere with reading and comprehension? He was giving respect to those movies bringing back "real" with "real" being good.
Wassup with his huge head! I mean he acts like he's got a big head, but now he actually has a big head. As Mike Myers once said as the Scottish Dad in So I married An Axe Murderer…will ya look at the heeeeed on the boy!
And who gives a fuck who's first. I'd like to beat the first out of all of you looooosahs!
***HIS LATEST MOVIE LOOKS AS BAD AS HIS CAREER HAS FOR THE LAST 20+ YEARS****
CRACK AND TRANNIES DONT DO A CAREER GOOD!!!!!!!!
The thumbs and asses comment absolutely killed me. It made me nostalgic for the truley great Perez that we all loved before YOU WENT CORPORATE!! You will regret it, but still love ya. And—think about the reader and forget about the money. Be REAL
yo git ya tilyo gu noimsaayin noimsaayin
Don't forget that the first one received an Oscar nomination. So he must not be that bad Perez…at least no worse than your column.
)
perez, why all the hate for eddie?? he is a funny motherfucker. he has made some great comedies, maybe his recent stuff isn't the best, but you cant forget all his old classics!!!
He SUCKS big time! Should retire immediately. Such a loser. ugh. I won't be wiggling my nose to see his childish movies.
How could anyone not like Eddie?
what an effen huge head this ugly ass dude has.
nice big bulge in his pants…i have heard about his endowment…yum!!!!!!
I have to agree with most of you slamming perez about this.
He obviously has no clue. The movie was confirmed about 2 months ago. Not only that but what is he talking about has been. Was he not just nominated for Best Supporting Actor for DreamGirls. Which he was robbed of. And BHC3 really was the worst of the series. The first 2 are classics. And Eddies comments are not jealous he was spot on. For awhile people got offended with the swearing and lude remarks but now its back. And as for your comments on sequels…did you not watch Die Hard 4?? stop talking s*@% and stick to just the gossip
perez, you obviously don't know comedy
*sigh* Mainstream consumers weren't ready or accepting of Eddie's raunchy material and style way back 25 or so years ago. He, along with Pryor and many others were ahead of their time. Which is why so much of their earlier works are still to this day "Classics".
Perez, quit being a gossip queen. Eddie is hilarious. He was awesome on SNL…and most of the movies he's been in. I think it would be great to have another BHC! Bring it on, Eddie! Honestly, perez…not sure why you are so bitter towards Eddie. What has he done to you?
Please pay your respects to Ruslana Korshunova at her official tribute page on myspace: /RuslanaKorshunova
Peace And Love,
Emmy
Yeah, he's only made the most money of any comedian EVER!
He´s thinner than ever.
I doubt Murphy is jealous. He's just identifying a trend, and what happened with the PG 13 thing, and its a valid observation with the overview of years of experience.
He sounds spot-on to me. Yet, it's creeping me out how much his look has changed since his divorce. He got skinny, started wearing some freaky threads, and then started hanging with white cowboys who remind me of the two gun shop characters in Pulp Fiction. That story about him picking up a transvestite in the early morning hours several years ago too…… Does anyone here remember listening to his comedy albums (yes, albums)? Man, they were NASTY–foul and angry stuff. I still can't get over how he married - and then divorced - the most gorgeous woman on the planet.
You have gotta see these AWESOME blogs!
The creator of it LOVES comments and actually writes you back!
NickParkerLive.com
It's a bit more of an interesting blog than Perez's - with less vulgarity.
Leave Eddie alone! He's brilliant and funny.
What was worse, Beverly Hills Cop or "Party All the Time?"
You tell me.
Re: ama –
I know this is a stupid site ran by a fat homo of below-average intelligence, bu tpoeple, come on, you can't all be that stupid.
his head looks big becasue of the way the phot was shot, with a low-mm lens, like 14 or 18mm, the focus is on his head and that's why he looks disproportional. plus, it was take from an angle above eddie's head. if it were a 50,, or higher lens, it would look okay.
but what amazes me is what kind of shit amazes you people, I mean really, some of you leave the dumbest commenst ever.
eddie rules, and he is one of the funniest comedians ever, he made some of the best comedies ever. and perez, you illiterate dumbass, if eddie is reffering to one movie, how can you later on write 'they'. damn, you're so stupid it's painful. still, good for you that you can make a living by just being yourself - a fat, small-minded, frustrated homosexual who is obsessed with gossip.
"Real shit," Eddie? Since when have you made a comedy that has anything to do with reality? Because Meet Dave, Norbit, The Nutty Professor…I could go on…have nothing to do with reality, my friend.
fuck you perez. eddie is STILL the man. ALL of his movies grossed $100 MILLION AND UP. and he's an oscar nominated actor. not to mention one of the last real and truly FUNNY comics alive. and with a bulge that big, he should've played hanCOCK!!
I don't know, I really liked him in Disney's Haunted Mansion. Bwahahahahahaha! He needs to go on I love Money or something.
OMG he looks ANOREXIC!
He looks like he's so happy he just scored some crack!
Perez racist? On this page alone 5 mean things about Blacks!
im so excited for a new beverly hills cop! perez you seriously need to shut up, you talk so much shit. you need to learn when enough is enough. eddy is the shit, sorry your just the one who eats it. suckkkaaaaaaaaa
he's not aging well
Perez, in your last post about Eddy Murphy you said he planned on doing a few more movies, and now you're surprised that he's not retiring right away? Are you really THAT much of a fucking moron? (that's a rhetorical question btw).
-
Do you even realize how often you contradict yourself you fucking douchebag?
Eddie Murphy has somehow made a career off the notion that fat black people are hilarious. He makes me want to barf.
Dude, the guy starred in Trading Places, wrote and starred in Coming To America, did Beverly Hills Cop and 48 Hours, helped craft SNL into a timeless show, and is reveered as probably one of the top 5 stand-up comics of all time.
You write a gossip blog about celebrities and often times fabricate the shit out of your stories, not to mention just say hideous shit for no reason at all.
YOU are giving EDDIE MURPHY shit. Wow. For all I care he can fuck a million and one transvestites - he wrote Delirious. What have you done lately?
haha yeah. hes jealous alright. lets put this into perspective:
from wiki:
Murphy ranks as the highest grossing film star in history, having a total of 33 films to date, his films grossing over $3.4 billion in the US alone, averaging $104 million per film
so um yeah. the man deserves some fucking respect. no matter what this shit eating site says.
wtf? the guy has been working for 25+ years in Hollywood making hit after hit. perezhilton.com will be irrelevant in a few years while people will watch his movies for DECADES to come. our children's children's children will watch his movies and laugh. put that shit into perspective.
this site is supposed to be about the entertainment industry right? you should fucking worship this man. wrong person to go after.
