Another Feud: Chris Vs. Chris- You be the judge...
CHRIS VS. CHRIS: Comedians fighting over where the black prez idea began.
Chris Tucker
(May. 21, 2002) *People in the industry swear they're the best friends in the world, but when it comes to success, all is fair. Take, for example, comedians Chris Tucker and Chris Rock.
The duo is reportedly bickering about the origin of a movie about a black president. Tucker has been talking about the project, “Mr. President,” since 1999. But, as we reported in yesterday's EUR, Rock is about to begin shooting his own black prez film, titled “Head of State.”
Reportedly relations between Rock & Tucker have been strained since this year's Oscars. Reports say the two funny guys have supposedly passed on events where the other would be.
However, Leslie Sloan, Rock's publicist, says the two aren't beefing and goes on to say the idea of a black prez is not exactly an exclusive idea.
"The studios have been trying for years to get guys like Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy to play a black president. Chris Tucker's idea is not original."
