Steve Martin Creates Open Letter to Eddie Murphy

Steve Martin, such a swell guy! He functions on television and film, plays inside a bluegrass band and -- by now -- offers advice to his fellow comics. Martin just authored a wide open letter to fellow 'SNL' alum Eddie Murphy regarding his Oscar hosting gig the coming year. (Martin has located the show three occasions -- by themself in 2001 and 2003, with Alec Baldwin this year.) Within the note, the wild and crazy guy discusses handling nominees who lose (something Murphy is well-experienced in), in addition to contingency plans when the host will get tired half way with the show. A couple of from the more amusing quotes in the letter are below. Into it entirely, mind on to SteveMartin.com "I heard you're hosting the 2010 Academy awards. To begin with, Champion.
