Mike Epps on Playing Richard Pryor & Being Scared of White People at Comedy Shows

[@aaronfelman1000]

Mike Epps crushes his appearances on this show EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. What a legend.

[@knight9k]

Because he is himself.....never changes....like it or leave it....he's real...

[@PlatinumHustle]

He not really funny to me. He was only good in the Friday series

[@dustinavant2003]

Quick Mike Epps story. I valeted once in Indianapolis for a week where he would hang out with us for about a hour each morning. He had gotten a new (very nice) motorcycle before it went to market, he didn't know how to ride it but it was fun watching him try. He was on the whole time making us all laugh.

[@Rarain2012]

That's awesome

[@trakenamccray1020]

He looks better than he did 10 years ago, must be Illuminati quality lotion or something. Whatever Jennifer Aniston uses

[@OneDarkCutie]

Money helps. *A lot*.

[@mattdrago4660]

He's not THAT OLD

[@davidgori4500]

Mike Epps is great at stand-up, but even better as an actor. I don't care what anybody says, Friday After Next is the funniest Christmas movie ever.

[@variouscorn8834]

Can’t forget his ‘black Doug’ on the hangover

Yesssssss thank you Friday After Next is the 👌 best

Mike Epps killed that. He low key is a really good actor.

The “low key” really took away from the impact of that sentence. It would’ve made more sense and been more truthful without it.

[@parabellum5503]

He is a better actor then stand up imo.

[@martelllynchakatelltudaaka8719]

I've ran into Mike a few times now recently like this past 2 weeks and he's a real genuine guy. He talks to me every time we see each other. He's truly Indiana's Inspiration 🖤

Oh yes Richard Pryor was the great one. Long Beach 1979 best show ever.

[@earlross1663]

Hope to see the DVD when it comes out,or the movie. Also I hear what he saying about the Jordans, because one of my Grandchildren telling me once that he doesn't wear old people shoes while he away wearing a pair of Chuck Taylors then I showed him a picture of me when I was around 16 wearing a pair. That shut him up real quick.

When I was in college I lived on Parthenia half a block from the Americana movie theater. I would always go to this theater. I would see Richard Pryor come to that movie theater so many times. He would park his canary yellow Rolls Royce right in the front, although it was a red zone, the cops would let him park there. I started saying hi to him and he would always speak to me. He was always funny in a quiet way.

[@Tyweezy84]

I’m convinced Mike can play a dramatic role & do well
