David Spade is reflecting on his long-running feud with Eddie Murphy.
The “Tommy Boy” star opened up about his relationship with the “Coming to America” comedian during a recent episode of his “Fly on the Wall” podcast with guest Dana Carvey.
Spade, 61, confirmed that Murphy, 64, “hated” him after he made a joke at the “Beverly Hills Cop” star’s expense during an episode of “Saturday Night Live” in December 1995.
“Look, children, it’s a falling star,” Spade said as a photo of Murphy popped up on the screen during his infamous “Spade in America” sketch. “Make a wish.”
“Yes, that’s right,” the “Grown Ups” star added. “You make a Hollywood Minute omelet, you break some eggs.”
Murphy didn’t forgive him for nearly 30 years.
“I do love Eddie Murphy,” Spade told Carvey during his podcast. “We had some bumps in the road along the way, early on. It was weird going from being a super fan to having him hate me overnight, and to try to win him back for the last 25 years.”
“I made fun of him and it didn’t go well, and he called me and we had it out,” he added of the “SNL” dig. “Actually, he had it out. I didn’t fight back really, because I did feel a little guilty about it, and he did make some sense. I just didn’t like that because he was a hero.”
The pair, however, have since resolved their conflict and even made up during the “SNL” 50th anniversary special back in February.
“We talked a little bit and everything’s fine, and then he admitted on the show – not admitted, they just asked him about it – and he said, ‘Yeah, we’re all good,’” Spade shared. “So we’re all good.”
“This is what happened,” the “Wayne’s World” star added. “Eddie, he just totally let it go.”
This wouldn’t be the first time that Spade addressed his and Murphy’s surprising feud.
Earlier this year, during another episode of his popular “Fly on the Wall” podcast, the “Joe Dirt” actor said that “everything bad has evaporated” between him and the “Trading Places” star.
“I didn’t talk to him but there’s absolutely no anything anymore. Everyone’s cool,” he revealed shortly after the pair’s reunion at the “SNL” 50th anniversary special.
“We were friendly. We should’ve taken a picture cause it was fun to see him,” Spade added. “There were no weird vibes at the show.”
Murphy, meanwhile, touched upon the “Spade in America” dig and its aftermath during a chat with The New York Times in June 2024.

After saying that Spade’s joke felt “racist” and like a “cheap shot,” Murphy acknowledged that it was even worse because one of his films, “Vampire in Brooklyn,” had “flopped” at the box office less than two months earlier.
“It was like, ‘Yo, it’s in-house! I’m one of the family, and you’re f–king with me like that?’ It hurt my feelings,” he said during the outlet’s “The Interview” podcast last year.
“I’m cool with everybody,” Murphy later added. “It’s all love.”
The “Shrek” star addressed the incident more recently during his Netflix documentary “Being Eddie,” which was released last month.
“It’s like your alma mater taking a shot at you,” Murphy explained. “At my career, not how funny I was. Called me a falling star.”
