Occupation: Actor
Sign: Aries

He was named one of E!’s “top 20 entertainers of 2001.” Eddy Murphy has starred in more different sequels than any other actor: Beverly Hills Cop II, Another 48 Hours, Doctor Doolittle 2, Nutty Professor: The Klumps and Shrek II
Murphy Stand-up comedy routines
performed stand-up comedy at the same Bay Area Comedy Club as Robin Williams and Whoopi Goldberg. His early comedy was racy, akin to Richard Pryor, whom Murphy has credited as his inspiration to enter comedy. Characterized by frequent swearing and homophobia, Murphy became, in a sense, the Pryor of the 1980s, though Pryor wrote in his autobiography that he always thought Murphy’s comedy was a little too mean. At the height of his popularity, Murphy appeared in the concert films Delirious (1983) and Raw (1987). Delirious contained an infamous routine in which he depicted characters Ralph Kramden and Ed Norton from The Honeymooners, as well as other notables such as Mr. T, as homosexuals. In 1983, Murphy won a Grammy for his comedy album Comedian.
