Actor/Comedian Eddie Murphy hit the Lakerâs game solo the other night and apparently he wants to make a point.
As you know, the net was buzzing last week aboutMurphy and Toni Braxtonâ...ng romance but Eddieâs decided not to play that game and has put an end to the speculation.
Details belowâŚAccording to The NYPost, Murphy says heâs still single and he stresses that he and Toni are âjust friendsâ.
Eddie Murphy has denied reports that he is dating âAnother Sad Love Songâ singer Toni Braxton.
When asked if he had a new paramour, Murphy told âAccess Hollywoodâ in an interview last night, âI donât even know who the new love is. I know Iâm single and Iâm just up at the house, playing the guitar and being a single dad.â
When asked specifically about reports that he and Braxton were âgetting very serious,â Murphy said the rumors arenât true.
âToni and I are just friends,â Murphy claimed. âI went to her show, and weâre friends and sheâs a very, very sweet girl, but weâre just friends.â
Is it me or did he say âfriendsâ an awful lot in that statement. Did Murphy Want a âFlingâ while Braxton was seeking a âSoulmateâ?
While itâs never a good thing for the man youâve been canoodling with to deny youâre his boo, fortunately for Toni, it bought her a wee bit of publicity.
At least Johnny Gil can sleep easier nowâŚ
