Eddie Murphy Annoyed the Cast
The first cast member to host and perform on the same episode of Saturday Night Live was Eddie Murphy back in the 1980s. What’s the reason behind this? Co-star Nick Nolte had to bail after a wild night the night before.
The Eddie Murphy Show is life from New York, as Murphy declared at the conclusion of his opening monologue. This was not everyone’s cup of tea. Everyone else on set seemed irritated by the young star’s conceit.
Chris Kattan is Permanently Injured
It has been revealed that Chris Kattan had some run-ins with SNL co-star Norm McDonald during his time on the show. A “stunt thing” prompted him to leave the show, according to the actor and comedian.
Chris Kattan broke his neck by hurling himself back into a chair during a stunt. According to reports, the star has undergone multiple surgeries to deal with the pain and refuses to discuss the accident. NBC helped cover the costs of some of his procedures.
