American Idol's oh-so-brutally-honest judge Simon Cowell wasn't always quite so brutally honest. In fact, back in the 1980s, Simon was so intimidated by mega-star Eddie Murphy, that he didn't have the nerve to tell him that the songs he had written were complete and utter crap.Simon recalls how he went to Eddie's home, expecting it to be "just the two of us and one hi-fi." Instead, he found himself in "a recording studio with about 20 nodders; a nodder is someone who gets paid to agree with the person paying him."

Season 1 of Chappelle's Show is now for sale on iTunes. That season was the biggest-selling television DVD of all time, out-selling even The Simpsons and Family Guy.Unfortunately, iTunes only offers the individual episodes and not the gag reel or the extra 'Ask a Black Dude' featurette that come on the DVD (not that it's a surprise). It should also be noted that the episodes are labeled 'Explicit' because they are all uncensored, bitch!
Individual episodes are $1.99 a piece and $21.99 for all 12 episodes.
