Lizzo Remembers Having an Emotional Reaction to the Nutty Professor Lizzo recalls having a reaction to seeing the Eddie Murphy movie, The Nutty Professor She said, I’m the biggest Eddie Murphy fan of all time…I had this empathy for Prof Klump. Like the scene where he opens his drawer and there are all these candies and M&Ms in his desk. I could literally cry right now thinking about it. People around me were laughing but I hide food too. I feel him, I feel sympathy and empathy. Is there a movie that you connect with that brings out feelings of sympathy and empathy?
