Netflix's "Being Eddie" documentary offers viewers "a really genuine, little glimpse of me, for real," Eddie Murphy tells USA TODAY.

The Oscar nominee compares the experience of sitting for director Angus Wall's film (streaming Nov. 12) to "going through an old photo album with everybody." The 1 hour and 43-minute documentary − which includes interviews with Dave Chappelle, Pete Davidson, Jamie Foxx, Tracy Morgan, Chris Rock, Tracee Ellis Ross and Jerry Seinfeld – shows the first spark of Murphy's career: a ventriloquist doll that served as the perfect vehicle for his animated voices.

Television captivated Murphy from a young age.

"As a kid, I'd get a blanket, go throw it over the dining room table, so it was hanging down like a tent, put the TV under there, and I'd watch all day long," Murphy says in "Being Eddie." He remembers, years later, the days of "trying to roll around like Elvis" in leather suits while performing stand-up and relives his box office hits and misses.

Here are the most notable moments from the documentary:

Eddie Murphy loathes funerals. His plan to spare loved ones 'that trauma' after his death.

Eddie Murphy reflects on more than four decades in showbiz in "Being Eddie," streaming Nov. 12 on Netflix.'I was hurt': Eddie Murphy explains why he avoided 'SNL' and decided to return

Murphy joined the cast of "Saturday Night Live" in 1980, at 19. He left in 1984 to pursue movies, but not every one hit. 1995's "Vampire in Brooklyn" got him "a little off-track," Murphy can admit. But it still stung when David Spade included Murphy in his sharp-tongued "SNL" bit "Hollywood Minute."

With a photo of Murphy on the screen, Spade jabbed, "Look, children, it's a falling star. Make a wish." The audience groaned, and Murphy admits, "I was hurt."

"It's like your alma mater taking a shot at you," he says. He believes a similar joke about an "SNL" cast member's career wouldn't fly today.

"The joke had went through all of those channels that a joke has to go through" to get on the air, Murphy says. "That's what y'all think of me? … And that's why I didn't go back for years."

Eventually, he decided the show could be an opportunity to highlight his talents. He returned to host it in 2019.

"That little friction that I had with 'SNL' was 35 years ago. I don't have no smoke with no David Spade," he says. "It was like, 'Hey, let me go to 'SNL' and smooth that all out.' And I did."

Eddie Murphy reveals thoughts on the 2007 Oscars: I could've 'lost at home'

Murphy believes that his poorly received comedy "Norbit," released in the final days of voting, muddied his path to the Oscar stage laid in "Dreamgirls." Alan Arkin took home the best supporting actor Oscar for his performance in "Little Miss Sunshine." The loss, Murphy says, is not what irked him, though he left the show after the award was announced.

"I would usually not go to award shows," Murphy says in "Being Eddie." "I'm like, 'These motherf------ made me come all the way down. I could've f------ lost at home.'"

"I'm never like, 'Oh, I didn't win.' I'm like, 'Hey! Don't make me come down here for nothing.' It's always wonderful to win stuff. But if I don't win ... I'm still Eddie in the morning."

Why Eddie Murphy avoids awards shows: 'Everybody's dressed and acting and fake'

Eddie Murphy at the 79th Academy Awards on Feb. 25, 2007, in Hollywood.Eddie Murphy wonders if Yul Brynner propositioned him on his birthday at Studio 54

Murphy rang in his 21st birthday at New York's famed Studio 54.

"Yul Brynner, from 'The Ten Commandments,' he was with his wife (Kathy Lee Brynner), and he was like, "How would you like to go back to my apartment with my wife and I and party?' " Murphy recalls. "And I was like, 'Nah, I'm cool.' "

Murphy says with age, he's begun to wonder if it was an invitation to dally with Kathy while Brynner watched.

"And now I wish I would've went," Murphy says, because it would've made for a better story.

USA TODAY has reached out to a representative for the Brynner family for comment.

Yul Brynner at 1958 interview in Paris.Eddie Murphy didn't plan to walk away from stand-up: 'It just kind of gradually stopped'

Murphy reveals he never made a conscious decision to leave the stand-up stage.

"It just kind of gradually stopped," he says. "I do know that it stopped being as much fun, and that's why I stopped going to the clubs like I used to."

He resented stories and critiques that would follow a set, polished or not. "If I would go up at a club, the next day it would be in the paper that I was at a club and what I was talking about, and they'd be critiquing it already, and it'd be like a little piece of an idea," he says. "And I remember I didn't like that feeling, so I stopped working out as much … before we knew it, decades had gone by."

And when he catches bits of his stand-up shows, "Eddie Murphy Delirious" (1983) and "Eddie Murphy Raw" (1987), he says, "It feels like a different person," as with time we all evolve.

Eddie Murphy avoided hard drugs: 'I wasn't even curious'

Murphy says when he would party with "Super Freak" singer Rick James in the '80s, he would leave before people started doing drugs. "I was never curious about it," Murphy says. "I never wanted to go in there and check it out or nothing. I just wasn't with it."

During his first season of "SNL," Murphy says he accompanied John Belushi and Robin Williams to a blues bar.

"They put some blow on the table, and I'm standing there (between) two heroes," Murphy says. "I wasn't even curious. I was just not with it. I've never even tried cocaine or touched cocaine ... I don't drink. I don't smoke cigarettes."

Murphy says he was 30 before he smoked his first joint.

(Reuters) -A staggering 97% of listeners cannot distinguish between artificial intelligence-generated and human-composed songs, a Deezer–Ipsos survey showed on Wednesday, underscoring growing concerns that AI ‌could upend how music is created, consumed and monetized.

The findings of the survey highlight the ethical ‌and economic tension facing the global music industry as AI tools capable of generating songs in seconds raise copyright concerns and threaten the livelihoods of artists.

The issue gained prominence earlier this year when AI band "The Velvet Sundown" sparked enough buzz to ⁠gain around one million monthly ‌listeners on Spotify before people found out about its synthetic origins.

The study, which polled 9,000 people across eight countries including ‍the U.S., UK, France, Brazil and Canada, showed about 71% of the respondents were surprised by their inability to distinguish between human and machine-produced tracks.

Streaming platform Deezer said more than 50,000 songs uploaded daily on its service ‌are entirely AI-generated, accounting for about a third of all new music submissions.

The company began tagging AI music earlier this year to promote transparency.

"We believe strongly that creativity is generated by human beings, and they should be protected," CEO Alexis Lanternier told Reuters, urging transparency.

Lanternier also said implementing a ⁠differential payout structure for AI music is a complex issue with varying viewpoints, making a "massive change" to remuneration difficult.

Deezer is excluding fake streams from royalty payments.

Another way is for companies to make deals with rights holders,‍ he added, ⁠citing Universal Music Group's settlement of a copyright infringement case with AI company Udio.

While financial terms were undisclosed, UMG will partner with Udio to ⁠launch a new AI music creation and streaming platform next year, with the AI tool getting ‌trained on licensed music.

- Tom Bergeron hosted *Dancing with the Stars *for its first 28 seasons.

- He left the series in 2020 and later said his final season wasn't an enjoyable experience.

- On Tuesday, Nov. 11, he'll return to the ballroom as a guest judge.

Tom Bergeron's departure from *Dancing With the Stars *remains one of the show's most surprising shake-ups. The beloved host led the ABC competition series from its first season in 2005 through 2019, becoming a familiar face for fans across 28 seasons.

Bergeron left the series in July 2020, but now, five years later, he's set to make a special return to the ballroom as a guest judge for the show's 20th anniversary celebration on Tuesday, Nov. 11.

Bergeron recently told TV Insider that it's "going to be great" to be back at *DWTS*. "I'm anticipating that it's going to be a wonderfully emotional, nostalgic night," he said. "I'm just looking forward to being in an environment surrounded by people I really care about on live television, where there's no second take. It's my happy place."

Ahead of his long-awaited return, * *takes a look back at Bergeron's exit from *DWTS*, exploring why he left and whether it was truly his decision.

On July 13, 2020, ABC and BBC Studios announced that Bergeron and his cohost, Erin Andrews, would not be returning for *DWTS *season 29.

In a joint statement, the network and producers said, "Tom Bergeron will forever be part of the *Dancing with the Stars* family. As we embark on a new creative direction, he departs the show with our sincerest thanks and gratitude for his trademark wit and charm that helped make this show a success."

When news broke of his firing, Bergeron wrote in a post on X, "Just informed @DancingABC will be continuing without me. It's been an incredible 15-year run and the most unexpected gift of my career. I'm grateful for that and for the lifelong friendships made. That said, now what am I supposed to do with all of these glitter masks?"

Many longtime *DWTS *fans were unhappy with the decision to replace Bergeron and Andrews with Tyra Banks, but then-executive producer Andrew Llinares defended the move. "Any show like this that has been on for many, many seasons needs to continue to evolve," Llinares said at ABC's fall press day in September 2020, per *Entertainment Tonight*. "So I think changing that host is all about evolution."

He added that the goal was to make *DWTS *"feel fresh, making it feel new and make it reach out to a new audience — as well as the audience that's been there for years."

What has Tom Bergeron said about his DWTS departure?

The next year, Bergeron opened up about what really happened behind the scenes of his departure, admitting that his final season hosting *DWTS *"wasn't a pleasant" experience.

"In all candor, the show that I left was not the show that I loved," he said on the *Here For You *podcast in September 2021. "So at the end of the season, that turned out to be my last season, I kind of knew. I took everything out of my dressing room that I really wanted. ... It was kind of obvious that we were kind of butting heads [behind-the-scenes]."

He added that he wasn't too shocked by the decision, saying, "I wasn't surprised that that was my last season, so there was no blue period. Actually, I think Erin and I had more fun being fired than virtually anybody."

ABC/KELSEY McNEAL

In October 2023, Bergeron shared the real turning point that led to his exit. During an appearance on former *DWTS *pro Cheryl Burke's *Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans* podcast, he revealed that tensions spiked when they decided to cast former White House press secretary Sean Spicer for season 28, which ran from September to November 2019.

Heading into an election year, Bergeron urged the *DWTS *team to keep politics out of the ballroom. "I said, 'Guys, this is exactly what we said we wouldn't do. Don't go there. This is, you know, not the right time, play to our strengths, be the show that gives people a break from all this bulls---,'" Bergeron recalled.

After a producer and the showrunner insisted on casting Spicer, Bergeron offered to "take the season off." They countered by offering to release Bergeron from his contract entirely. "That's how strongly they felt," Bergeron said, adding that it "really pissed me off."

Bergeron was "furious," and he vented his frustration publicly. Just hours after the season 28 cast reveal, he issued a statement via his social media criticizing the show for abandoning its role as a "joyful respite from our exhausting political climate."

The post caught ABC executives off guard, and that was intentional. Bergeron told Burke he didn't give them a heads-up because "they didn't deserve to know."

"They had screwed me. I'm gonna screw them," he explained. "But I wanted the viewers to know this was a step too far to me. This was a step too far on the cusp of an election year. And again — had it been a Democrat, same statement."

The backlash over Spicer's casting helped Bergeron realize that his time on *DWTS* was quickly coming to an end. "At that moment, I knew this is probably my last season, because of that one betrayal," he said. "Up until that point, there were people of character there."

Why did Tom Bergeron decide to return to DWTS?

Bergeron previously told Burke he would "never" return to *DWTS*, but now he's heading back to the dance floor.

On Wednesday, Nov. 5, *Good Morning America *announced* *that Bergeron would appear as a guest judge for the show's 20th birthday party episode on Nov. 11.

Bergeron cited Conrad Green, the original and current* *showrunner, as the reason he's returning to *DWTS *after all these years. "Conrad has really done a lovely job of reaching out to me and offering an olive leaf," he told TV Insider, "and we're friends, and so, in the past 12 months, when this idea popped into my head, [I thought] 'Yeah, I think I'll be very comfortable spending a lot more than a minute there.'"
