He needs to be giving some of that overpaid money to the daughter he created but never sees and pretty much denies. He'll always be a jerk in my eyes for that.

Far from overpaid... More like well deserved. Also Hes not like celebs now days stays in rehab, on the news for cheating ect... He has a great singing voice also #Jimmy got soul! Lmao

Bull! Love Eddie's movies! Coming to America was the best! And I like that his movies now are kid friendly! I also loved Norbit! Definitely not overpaid! If my kids are smiling I'm smiling!

There are plenty more overpaid actors, Eddie's just had a few movies maybe he shouldn't have been in.

Bowfinger is his most under rated performance I could watch that movie daily he has made enough money where he only has to stay black and die. I would love for eddie to return to stand up comedy

LETS NOT FORGET LIFE, BOWFINGER, AND TOWER HEIST. THE QUALITY OF THE SUCCESSFUL MOVIES CANCEL OUT THE FLOPS. I LMAO WATCHING NORBIT, I JUST DIDNT PAY 2 SEE IT.
