Eddie Murphy Raw (1,008) IMDb 7.7 1h 30min 1987 X-Ray R A must for fans of the 80s' number one comic-turned-actor, this is a nasty, wickedly funny and completely uncensored stand-up show with Murphy at his raunchy best.

He's not as tall as 177 cm and 176 is probably as close as you'll get. Remember, Antonio Banderas and Cameron Diaz are about 5'8': Click HereClick HereClick Here and Mike Myers is a short guy at no more than 5'7': Click HereClick Here Even Antonio's thick-heeled black boots would still only make him look like a 5'9'-5'10' range man and Diaz isn't going to measure more than 5'11' in those heels, if that. You can give Antonio the 174 cm Rob lists him and Eddie still isn't looking near 5'11' in shoes that day. Chris Rock might be 177 cm, but I think the 5'10' Rob gives him is probably fine, though he was taller than Eddie at this event: Click Here And look at how massive another Rock looked next to Eddie last year at the beginning and end of this video: Click Here and this pic: Click Here I doubt Rock is taller these days than the 6'2.5' Rob gives him, but he's easily got 5' on Eddie. Murphy was 55 in that comparison, but I doubt that has much to do with it because Nick Nolte made it very clear he was only 6'0' and he consistently had around 3' on Eddie throughout both 48 Hrs. films and as I said, Eddie wouldn't have had to inflate Brigitte Nielsen's height by 2' if he was basically his 5'10' claim.

Keenen Ivory Desuma Wayans Sr. (born June 8, 1958) is an American actor, comedian, filmmaker, and a member of the Wayans family of entertainers. He first came to prominence as the host and the creator of the 1990–1994 Fox sketch comedy series In Living Color. He has produced, directed and/or written several films, starting with Hollywood Shuffle, which he cowrote, in 1987.
A majority of his films have included him and one or more of his brothers and sisters in the cast.
One of these films, Scary Movie (2000), which Wayans directed, was the highest-grossing movie directed by an African American until it was surpassed by Tim Story's Fantastic Four in 2005. From 1997 to 1998, he hosted the talk show The Keenen Ivory Wayans Show.[1] Most recently, he was a judge for the eighth season of Last Comic Standing.
Life and career[edit]
Wayans was born in Harlem, New York City, son of Howell Stouten Wayans, a supermarket manager, and his wife Elvira Alethia (Green), a homemaker and social worker.[2]In the show Finding Your Roots it was revealed that he has heritage of Madagascar in his paternal line, thus making his sisters and brothers also sharing the heritage.[3] His father was a devout Jehovah's Witness.[4][5][6] The family later moved to Manhattan's Fulton housing projects,[7] where he primarily grew up. He attended Seward Park High School during his teenage years, and attended Tuskegee University on an engineering scholarship.[7] He entertained his friends at college with made-up stories about life in New York.[8] One semester before graduation, he dropped out of school to focus on comedy.[9]
During his first set performing at The Improv in New York, Wayans met Robert Townsend, who helped him learn about the comedy business.[8] Townsend and Wayans drove cross country to Los Angeles together when Wayans moved to Los Angeles in 1980.[8] They did not speak for a year afterward. Wayans worked there as an actor. He had a regular role as a soldier on a television series titled For Love and Honor.[8] He also appeared on Hill Street Blues as a famous NFL linebacker.
Townsend wrote, directed, and starred in the movie Hollywood Shuffle; Wayans was costar and cowriter.[8] The movie's success allowed him to raise the money to make I'm Gonna Git You Sucka.[8] Fox Broadcasting Company approached Wayans to offer him his own show.[10] Wayans wanted to produce a variety show similar to Saturday Night Live, with a cast of people of color that took chances with its content.[7]
Fox gave Wayans a lot of freedom with the show, although Fox executives were a bit concerned about the show's content before its television debut.[10] Wayans created, wrote, and starred in the show, titled In Living Color, a sketch comedy television series that originally ran on the Fox Network from 1990 to 1994.
Wayans is a vegetarian, and has promoted the diet in a public service announcement of 2006 for the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.[11][12]
