Yes, Eddie Murphy has taken the plunge. Will it be a Twitter “party all the time“?

Er … evidently he joined Twitter to promote … oh dear … his reggae single “Red Light” featuring Snoop Lion.

.@eddiemurphy is on twitter and his first tweet was about his forthcoming reggae album with Snoop Lion. Not a joke.

Not a joke? Can we at least pretend for a while? Just for a little while.

@eddiemurphy is now on twitter. I hope his first tweet/profile are an elaborate joke. #ReggaeAlbum #SnoopLion

I only wish Rick James was alive to make fun of @eddiemurphy's venture into solo musicianship http://t.co/9BlUv5Iw6X
