Eddie Murphy Breaks His Silence


If you haven't kept up with all this Eddie Murphy and Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown drama, I'm going to give you a brief summary.

Eddie Murphy divorces Nicole Murphy--with whom he was 5 children with. Eddie and Mel met and date for a few months, he breaks up with her, she gets knocked up, and he denies that it’s his child. She gets pissed off, sells her story to the press. She makes him take a DNA test and surprise surprise--It's his! All the while, Eddie is busy getting cozy with his new love Tracey Edmonds--to whom he just proposed. Basically Eddie's love life is a big old' mess!

Just one day after Eddie's first wife Nicole and Mel B dined together at paparazzi haven The Ivy, Eddie Murphy is finally breaking his silence and telling his side of the story.

In a statement released by his rep, the actor says he "acknowledges paternity of the child Angel, and has paid child support to Ms. Brown as well as covering the expenses of her pregnancy."

The statement continues: "Mr. Murphy and Ms. Brown dated very briefly and never made any plans of ANY sort," although Brown told Essence.com that "this was a completely planned pregnancy."

What do you guys think, is Eddie a cad or is Mel B a jealous ex?

Maybe a little of both. Eddie is most definitely a cad. He has no problem moving on to the next chick and leaving scores of children in the wake. Hey Eddie, a vasectomy could save you some serious money!

They both move too fast for me. Eddie had just gotten divorced now he has another baby with someone else. And Scary moves in and gets knocked by a guy she knew for what a month? Slow down people!!

Yep a jealous ex that is forsure. She is a publicity hound just like her attorney. I believe Eddie, not saying that him not seeing the child is right because it isn't, but there is more going on here than we know. At one time after the baby was born she was hollering she was still in love with Eddie and dreams they can be one again...then a couple mths later she is with Belfonte and going to marry him and house hunting together...enough to make you say Hmmm....And just to say, Eddie only has one child that we know of out of wedlock, his other 5 is with his ex wife of 12 yrs...that says alot to me given that most actors has many kids out there out of wedlock.

If I was a modestly successful rich person, celebrity, or not...and you had a child with a mega star celeb, say...Madonna for instance. Point is, if she had a baby with me...and for whatever reason said..."Here's the baby...you can both get lost...I don't want to have anything to do with you!!!"--well, I'd just take the baby without a public fight, and raise that baby...without Madonna's money...and without any need for it. No Gloria Alred led faux anger filled press conferences...No staged photo-ops at the Ivy Restaurant...and name calling necessary!!! Again...if you are rich...and you have enough money to properly take care of a child...then why the hell are you demanding more money???!!! That's my point about Mel B...what the hell does she need with more money, besides greed, in respect to raising this baby, or any baby for that matter???!!!

Our country is filled with children who do not have their dad's. Mr. Murphy is just one more! Is this acceptable? What a role model!
