After failing to win the award for Best Supporting Actor to Little Miss Sunshine?s Alan Arkin, Eddie Murphy tried to brush off the loss, telling Us, “It’s fine. It happens. It’s OK.” But clearly it wasn’t.
Shortly thereafter Murphy and girlfriend Tracey Edmonds left the show in a huff and didn?t return. Thanks to the early exit, the actor didn?t see any of his Dreamgirls castmates perform and missed out on costar Jennifer Hudson?s win for Best Supporting Actress.
