American comedian Eddie Murphy is a generous person in real life, paying for proper burials for fellow black artists.

In a Netflix documentary about him titled “Being Eddie,” the 64-year-old star of “Beverly Hills Cop” said he covered the funeral costs for comedian Redd Foxx and musician Rick James, Fox News reports.

Murphy said he also bought a tombstone for the late William Thomas Jr., who famously played Buckwheat in “The Little Rascals” film series, according to Fox.

Ironically, the actor admitted he did not attend the funerals of James, Foxx and Thomas, and said he does not want a funeral for himself.

“When I kick out, I’m not having no funeral and be laying up there and people coming and looking at me, lowering me in the ground,” he said. “I am to be cremated immediately. And there’s no funeral and there’s no memorial or none of that s---,” Fox News quoted Murphy in the documentary.

Meanwhile, in Paris, France, residents will be given a chance to be buried in three overcrowded public cemeteries where history’s most famous artists are interred.

The cemeteries, which are also tourist attractions, are the Père Lachaise where the Doors’ Jim Morrison and author Oscar Wilde were laid to rest; Montparnasse which hosts the tombs of French philosophers Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, and Irish playwright and poet Samuel Beckett; and Montmartre, where painter Edgar Degas and writer Emile Zola are buried.

The city of Paris is holding a lottery for 30 burial plots in the cemeteries but the chosen ones will have to pay 4,000 euros per plot plus restore a gravestone that needs repair, BBC reports.

The scheme “presents a compromise” between respecting the dead and giving residents a chance to be buried within the city, the Paris council said, according to BBC.
