Eddie Murphy's 'Dolemite Is My
Kylie Jenner, Kim And Kanye's Homes Hit By Prowler Caught on Video
Name' Is His Greatest-Hits Role,
Surveillance footage from the intruder on the property.
TORONTO – Early on in the Netflix biopic comedy “Dolemite Is My Name,” Eddie Murphy – as 1970s- era blaxploitation icon Rudy Ray Moore – is tooling around the record store where he works and hits the resident DJ (Snoop Dogg) with some truth: “I'm not lying, man, people love me.”
The same could be said for Moore, a struggling come- dian and actor who became a rhyming, rapping raconteur and rode his Dolemite char- acter – complete with groovy fashion ensembles and the ever-present pimp cane – to big-screen glory.
But it definitely was true of Murphy in his 1980s and ‘90s heyday, who came up on “Sat- urday Night Live” before rocketing to Hollywood star- dom with “Beverly Hills Cop,”
And We Are Here For It All
Kylie Jenner had an in- truder prowling around her property Monday, and the guy wasn't finished with the family because he beelined it over to Kim and Kanye's house.
TMZ has obtained this sur- veillance video shot from Kylie's security cam at one of her Hidden Hills homes. It shows the prowler around 5 AM rooting around the BBQ area -- possibly looking for a hidden key.
The guy apparently didn't
find what he was looking for and bailed, without attempt- ing to break inside.
Our sources tell us the guy went straight to Kim and Kanye's nearby home and somehow got inside their mailbox, located outside the residence. He didn't get far, because security eyed him and the guy beat a hasty re- treat.
Our sources say someone from Kylie's team saw the surveillance vid and called the cops.
Eddie Murphy and the cast of ‘Dolemite is my name”.
and will be with “Dolemite,” which premiered Saturday at Toronto International Film Festival. Murphy's first major movie since 2011’s “Tower Heist” – and his most buzzed- about effort this side of his Oscar-nominated turn in 2006’s “Dreamgirls” – is also his ultimate film role, one that encompasses everything Mur- phy does well.
As the lovably profane Rudy in the film (in select
theaters Oct. 4, streaming on Netflix Oct. 25), Murphy wears that signature toothy grin of his while embracing the absurdities of the Dolemite character. He karate-chops with gusto (if not grace), has a squad of kung fu prostitutes, literally brings the house down with his sex scenes and really shouldn’t be allowed to use a firearm. Dolemite is like six “SNL” personas in one, and they’re all a hoot.
