Eddie Murphy criticized former "Saturday Night Live" (SNL) cast member David Spade for a "racist" joke about him in 1995, following the failure of his film "Vampire in Brooklyn." Murphy told the New York Times that he felt the joke was "personal" and something he would never forget, even if he has forgiven it.
