MEKHI PHIFER

MEKHI PHIFER GOES OFF THE DEEP END

mekhi_cutphifer_01.jpgER doctor and 8 Mile star, Mekhi Phifer, and an attractive date had a perfectly civilized dinner at Arnie Morton’s steakhouse in Burbank. As they were leaving, Mekhi’s date went outside to smoke and Mekhi paused to speak to someone. When Mekhi arrived outside he actually saw a man SPEAKING TO his date! The enraged actor grabbed an empty beer bottle from a patio table and SMASHED the startled guy right in the face, flattening him! The bleeding victim was hustled off to the emergency room and Mekhi and his horrified date scrammed in a hurry. The next day the victim returned to the restaurant and he had stitches all over his face. He explained “I was just asking that woman for a cigarette.” We predict a lawsuit is brewing here.

Minimum Treatment

In 2002 8 Mile’s Mekhi Phifer went to a Hollywood comedy club to catch Chris Tucker’s standup act and he wasn’t happy about the two drink minimum. Mekhi ordered two waters and laughed his head off at the comedy but when he got the check he was outraged that his drinks cost $8.00. There was nothing funny about the fact that he left NO TIP. Why punish the waitress?
