Eddie Murphy made his seven-year-old co-star cry. The "Beverly Hills Cop" funnyman joked he had to let Yara Shahidi know who was in charge when they filmed "Imagine That."

He quipped: "I grabbed her and I said, 'Look don't you think just because you're so cute that you're going to be running things.'"

Eddie Murphy reportedly doesn't visit his daughter because he wants to stay away from "crazy" Mel B. The "Shrek" star, who fathered 22-month-old Angel Iris with the former Spice Girl, is keen to avoid a confrontation with his ex-girlfriend Mel.

A friend of Eddie's told America's OK! magazine: "To see the kid, he'd have to see the mother. Maybe when she's older, Eddie will see Angel, but not now."

Cameron Diaz has ruled out starring in "Shrek the Musical." The actress - who voices Princess Fiona in the animated film franchise - attended the Broadway opening of the musical on Sunday but has no plans to tread the boards herself.

When asked if she would like to play Fiona on stage, Cameron replied: "No. Absolutely not. What they do up there is, to me, impossible. It's wonderful, though. They've done such a great job. They worked really hard, and it really pays off."

Mel B won't release songs about her ex-lover Eddie Murphy because she has "moved on."

The former Spice Girls singer, who is currently working on a solo album, has changed her mind about revealing details of their bitter split and decided to drop tracks "Second Hand Lover" and "Reflections In A Broken Mirror."

Eddie Murphy chartered two private planes to transport his friends to Greece.

The "Meet Dave" actor is said to have specifically demanded two separate airborne vehicles for the trip - one for adults and one for children.
