Charlie Murphy's rapid evolution from "Chappelle's
Show" cast member to top-billed international comedian, playing to
sold-out audiences around the globe, has been remarkable. He has spent the past
8 years performing his critically acclaimed stand-up show and solidifying his
position in Hollywood as a true acting, writing and producing talent, in his
own right.
Charlie has toured nationally w/ the "I'm Rich
Bitch" comedy tour, featuring fellow "Chappelle's Show" cast
members Bill Burr and Donnell Rawlings. "Charlie Murphy and Friends"
and a co-headlining tour with Mike Epps followed. Next, Murphy co-headlined the
20-city "Maxim/Bud Light Real Men of Comedy Tour" with Joe Rogan and
John Heffron. Soon after was the headline tour "I Will Not Apologize"
for which Murphy filmed his first DVD special of the same title. Distributed by
Image Entertainment, this special premiered on Comedy Central in the #1 slot
and is available in stores, Amazon.com and iTunes.. Internationally he has
invaded Europe and Canada, an accomplishment very few American comedians can
boast of.

Hollywood talent such as Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, Eddie Murphy, Danny
Aiello, Terrance Howard, Gabrielle Union, Queen Latifah, Vanessa Williams, Rip
Torn, Peter Falk, Redd Fox, Angela Bassett, Wesley Snipes, Jamie Foxx, Samuel
