The actor’s rep says he always planned to leave the Oscars after Best Supporting Actor was announced

Posted on February 27, 2007

Eddie Murphy left his seat at the Kodak Theatre after losing the Best Supporting Actor Oscar (for Dreamgirls) to Little Miss Sunshine’s Alan Arkin – but his rep says the comedian would have done the same thing even if he’d won.”Eddie had always planned on leaving after his category was announced to spend the rest of the evening with his family,” says rep Arnold Robinson, adding, “He did the same thing following the Golden Globe Awards.” Murphy did win at the Globes. Reports that Murphy stormed out of the auditorium after losing circulated widely on the Internet after the show. TMZ.com reports that star was being “a sore loser” after the upset. (Murphy was considered by many to be the favorite to win the category.)
