Bill Cosby's rep calls Eddie Murphy a 'Hollywood slave' after ‘SNL’ joke

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.

A slave is a victim. A rapist victimizes others. Glass jail house, Mr.

That was a good joke. It was funny even though the humorless E Murphy told it.

Still better than being a slave in Jail.

Ha. Murphy is the funniest man alive, brought a spark to SNL ( reason for a revisit) and was completely funny to watch. Used to be the news segment aimed their barbs at both sides. Now it’s only at the right. Shame Mr. Cosby’s Reps don’t see the humor in a real dad doing right!

better than a prisoner or no

What do we call a man who associates with Cosby?

Ok Bill...

Bill Cosby’s “rep” has to acknowledge he/she have no future.

I’m with Eddie on this one.

To paraphrase His Highness Sir Edward Murphy... 'Why shit gotta be brown?'

Murphy couldn’t care less.

Fuck Bill Cosby.

He's not in PRISON bill you are.

Lmao bite the fucking curb

Is that a legal term like convicted rapist?
