Why are we not surprised that Eddie Murphy turned DOWN a request by the Academy to sing his Dreamgirls nominated song “Patience” at the Oscars? It would have been a fabulous number if it was anything like the movie. Insiders suspect that Eddie felt insecure about his voice. As much as he loves to sing, he doesn’t have the greatest voice and it requires a lot of doctoring up and enhancing in the studio. A live act might reveal shortcomings so Eddie opted out.
EDDIE MURPHY DOESN'T WANT TO SING IT AGAIN

Eddie Murphy.
Can’t sing.
Can’t act.
Can date Johnny Gill, though.

Whatever the movie people did…Eddie Murphy was fabulous in DreamGirls. Most of the vocals were sweetened in DreamGirls, it happens all the time (ask Madonna about her albums and live shows). He and the woefully ignored Anika Noni Rose were the best actors in the movie (and that includes Hudson). I believe since Eddie is not a live performer he is nervous about doing a show that is seen by 1 billion people.

Isn’t that true of most “singers” these days?
