@@d.h.3254 Says the idiot commenting, trying to talk slick to some random guy stating a fact on a random video. I'm not the only one, some guy agreed with me and most do. Martin Lawrence movies fell off after Big Momma's house and he has no celebrity anymore. If he held a comedy show, no one except for people 30 and older would show up. He fell off because he started doing worse and worse movies until now, when a celebrity is basically giving him pity since he's no longer popping. Chris a better actor, comedian and a bigger celebrity. Martin didn't respect himself nor where he came from and ended up as the token black guy in Wild Hogs. Pathetic. You try to act like someone should be jealous of him yet there's 1000's of celebrities I would rather Want to be than him. Lmao Like telling someone they wish they could be some C-List celebrity.
