In his acceptance speech, Murphy gave a shout-out to the greatest comedians of all time, citing Richard Pryor, Charlie Chaplin, Bill Cosby and George Carlin. It's illustrious company indeed, and we believe all four men would have received this award had it been available at the height of their success.
Murphy was clearly moved by the award, accepting it despite dubbing it "an old man award." After 35 years in comedy, Murphy may be ready to accept himself as an old man, but we're not so sure. He looks the same as he did when we first met him on 'Saturday Night Live' in 1980.
But he was honored to be presenting the first Comedy Icon Award to the comedian who inspired him to begin his own career in that field: Eddie Murphy.
