- In this VladTV flashback, the late John Witherspoon detailed why Chris Tucker never appeared in another Friday film. According to Witherspoon, Tucker's starring role in the Rush Hour trilogy garnered him much fame and fortune that he couldn't justify returning to Friday. John also talked about every cast member making just $5,000 for the film, but Chris Tucker recently revealed he managed to get a little extra.

They forgot rip to Bernie Mac.. he in Friday too. Rip to Pop.
Deebo too
@@blueanon8021 no they said Deebo bro but yup forgot about Bernie Mac! “The lord is my shepherd” lol 😂
Just sayed the same thing
They forgot tiny
Bro that’s what I’m sayin like Im dead ass yellin Bernie Mac to my phone like it’s gonna hear me lol
I can't believe they were only paid 5k for Friday and that it was shot in 20 days! It truly is a classic.
Right?!
Look how cheap rent was!! Different times
Friday is amazing but its obvious filming didn't take long they didn't have tons on diffrent locations. Its mostly carried by the amazing acting
It gives you a better look into Chris Tucker’s heart. You will find it in his pocket next to his millions.
he's so honest, no arrogance, so likable.
unlike today’s generations that are so self absorbed and have no self respect 💀
Didn't u just want to hang with him😭
@@savagefromtheraq I love this man RIP he reminds me of my father 😂. Your lucky to have had a salt of the earth wise man in your life seriously🙏🏿❤😊
Unlike your family
Missed dearly the amount times i watch these movies for the holidays.
Paid my rent 6 months ahead that way if I’m broke I still have a house to go home to. Now that’s Real! 💯💯 R.I.P Mr. John Witherspoon.
That's what I'm gonna do. Just like John Witherspoon, I'll pay my rent months in advance.
@@frankieeloi425 it’s 2021 y’all just now doing this? My shit paid till January lol
@@kingibroo5129 what kind of broke boy lives yall living that you have to do this?

@@SINLEADSTOHELL LMAO stfu
@@SINLEADSTOHELL what are u talking about? I’m pretty sure God knew that he was acting when he said this line. He seemed like a good man to me
@@kandikane1627 yes I understand that. But the fact is that we all have to be judged.That's why we must all tread softly with the Lord. And being good does not get you into heaven. Obeying Jesus Christ and believing in him gets you into heaven.

They cant make another one without pops deebo and smokey nah its over...
Chris won’t do it plus wouldn’t be the same without pops and Deebo and Bernie Mac💯

Let’s not forget him in the hood classic House Party. “Calling tha pooolice” 😂 And my favorite: Boomerang! You got to coordinate 🙌🏾

Please go listen to ROCKET by J HOWELL. He pays homage to pops
@@Richgirlchanel I will! Thanks
Eh eh eh eh eh eh! Shut up all that damn noise, this ain’t soul train! 🤣 one of my favourite movies House Party!
I really wanted to hear about his "Vampire in Brooklyn" experience.
Me too
Punk ass VLAD ruined it
🤣
Yess you can tell he wanted to speak on it was excited
Yes I did too. The man interviewing cuts him off too much...he should have just interviewed Chris Tucker because it seems that's all he wanted to talk about. R.I.P. Mr Witherspoon 🙏🏼
“You better put some water in that damn shit”

Friday= Best hood classic EVER made! Hands down!
Idk about that lol
Sir what 🤣
Yeah uhh no!! Lol. Boyz in the hood before Friday.
You like it better than boyz n the hood😳😳😆😆😂😂😂❤❤❤❤ hands down. All time favorite is Boys n The Hood. Lil Rickie dying hurt EVERYONE OK 😂
Menace to society
When I close my eyes, I keep thinking of his character from Boondocks. He was so good on that show, too.
Yes
Friday is one of the greatest black hood movies if not the greatest
Fax
Friday is one of the most exloitive ignorant portrayal of black people. Not the killing . That was a smoke screen. To create a positive image of ghetto life. Though the homes were nice abides. Now on menace two society. Those were real project ghettos. But that's another story. He played a very simple minded ignorant character. Wit a bad heart attack diet. Pig feet . Fried chicken ECT really ?? Save another Friday. We can due without. Time to grow up & become the master civilized people we truly are. We can still make it very funny. But leave a message of care & economic self sufficient. Baby boy touched this subject. Melvin owning his own business. That says a lot. And it sends a positive sign to the viewer. A since of self economic development. Get my point. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤔 Tachalla.
Don't short change Harlem Nights. Totally funny.
Greatest black and Hispanic movie 💯
@@prodigymichael7777 It's a movie, a comedy. Have a good laugh and relax. Sounds like you need one smh
Damn it really sucks that you stopped him from talking about his favorite movie. Would have loved to hear why Vampire in Brooklyn was his favorite movie
Agreed.
Agree thought it was unprofessional
I said the same thing...straight messy
Vlad bein VLAD.... and water being wet, it ain't nothin new!
Right!!..Straight cut him off and he was in mid sentence. I wanted to hear him talk about ViB. You don't hear about it enough.
"Macaroni".......I laughed til I cried on that one. I just realized I miss this man. The Wayans bro show was my shit after school.
You're right sir, there will never be another Friday, because you left us,🥺🥺🥺 rest in heaven
"Are you set trippin up in here!? Are you set trippin up in heere!!? Westside!!!!"
Glad I'm not the only one😌😌I say "Macaroni" everyday since his passing😔😔This man was a legend, I guarantee he is missed by millions💜💜
I love him as granddad in the boondocks I think that was his best role so far. He embodied that character to the fullest. I always heard his voice when I’d read the comic strips in the Sunday papers.
RIP pops. This man is legendary. -"You better put some water on that damn shit!"
Hahahahahah
💀💀💀
😂😂😂😂
And it is truly amazing. Of how we thrive on stupid ignorant quotes like that. Really. Sad day . But a brighter day shall come. Ha Tachalla 🤔🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Paying his rent 6 months ahead 🙏 knowledge is important he got a point 🔥
When I get a bonus check I always pay my rent up for a few months. I live in vegas so when I win gambling, I also pay my rent and bills up.
At least he was able to do that.. Especially considering they only got 5,000..
I was thinking the same ting

I loved him in Friday because he was Pops for me growing up on the Wayans Bros. I adore/adored this beautiful man 🤍🖤🤍 RIP OG
Oh please you never knew him Becky .
"Friday" turned out to be a Cult Classic. Good for you Ice Cube and congratulations. You deserve it!
Got from the interview.. “Need to pay rent 6months ahead, cause even when you’re broke you still have a place to go home to” 🍻
I feel stupid for not appreciating him while we had him
He was a good guy, he had a CZcams channel!
Yea that's usually how it is
The best way to feel better is to appreciate who is here now
@@supastartonez Amen..learn from experience.
You can find him on Wayans Brothers show. He was Amazing on the show.
Vlad NEVER lets his guests speak without interrupting or he talks on subjects that incriminate themselves lol
Thinking the same thing, because I would have said I'm talking and rolled my eyes.
"That's some Bullllshhhit that don't happen in Hollywood" he's so honest & doesn't care!

“I’ve probably seen that movie more than I’ve seen any movie.”
Also Vlad:
-Could only name 1 actor in the movie.
-Failed to name the biggest comedian in the movie: Bernie Mac.
I was just thinking that lol

Because VLAD is an agent....
Only one…One actress and was WRONG AF… Regina Hall nah dude it was REGINA KING I never got the two mixed up … smdh
@@AriesParker Mrs. Parker is that you?!
I did a radio interview with this man in 2005, and he is a true gentleman that absolutely appreciated his fans. Humble dude that answered all my annoying questions about his early career, Friday and voicing the Boondocks. RIP Johnny
I'm a Mexican,when I was at my lowest point in life and barely had money to pay my rent with my stomach growling of hunger,every time I washd Friday it always put a smile on my face to forget about my problems...

Homeless in Brooklyn while watching this, please listen to this man. I love his honesty on everything, especially how much he makes.
His voice over on the Boondocks is great too, R.I.P.
Rip pops🕊️ They should of done the last friday while him and Tiny Lister Jr. was still alive.
So many of the other actors procrastinated so much
RIGHT!
Friday fell off with the sequels anyway 🤷♀️
I wouldn't even try doing the last Friday now... 😞
They never think of it till they gone. Its money and burocacy (cain't spell) unfortunately.
But they miss him

I loved Friday because it reminds me of being young and watching it not being able to stop laughing. No stress days just laughter. It's takes a lot of people back to their happy place
Mr. John Witherspoon reminds me so much of my late Grandfather, his looks & personality!!
He really looked like he wasnt feeling well rest in peace.
Damn, when I hear him talk, I literaly hear Grandad from the Boondocks, I can't dissociate the 2. RIP man...
I thought it was just me. I can hear him saying "I layer my game down quite flat." Your grandad got game

Rest in Peace.. Such a wonderful brilliant & comedic soul. Thank you for all the memories Mr. Witherspoon
Only 5k? Smh that’s crazy the fact it grossed 300m,s
The worst is still Mark Hamill. He took the big lump sum instead of a smaller amount + royalties on Star Wars.
@@franksbtka1624 you should be swimming with the fishes, Frank.
Disgusting! Sad Shit
it still made them rich . The paycheck was bad but it jump started many careers and lead to bigger and better paychecks

Underrated Comment
Shed a tear when I herd him pass.. hot sauce hoooot sauceee I got that jingle from him and don’t use the bathroom for 35-45 mints .. he was much more than an actor he was grand dad .. miss you grandad
"You know me and your momma first thing in the morning... *Bang, Bang, Bang* "
RIP John Witherspoon
I love how pops thinks ahead of thinking about where he going to lay his head
R.i.p John Witherspoon. You will always be the hood’s favorite father ‼️❤️🙏💯💪🏾
Absolutely depressing that the studio has done nothing while we keep losing cast members.
These comments are so nice ...so true...and so appreciated that i'm sitting here crying. The one that got me was the mentioning of the loss of all the great actors in the movie. My 15 year old son loves John Witherspoon, and he is missed dearly. Thank you guys! Oh! I loved when he said he does not blame Chris Tucker for not coming back...funny!
$5k is some BULL! Damn Cube smh! That’s robbery. Should have came back and blessed all the main actors/actresses with at least a 200k-300k bonus! RIP Pops!
Cube wasn't writing the checks
You need to listen to the interview again
It wasn’t him he made the movie I think Dj Pooh wrote the script in ice cube then gray gray director it but the Box office is control of the money million dollar then they will cut it in they gave them 5k ice is not control of the money that mostly the box office. Oh trust me if Cube was control of the money he probably will gave them so much money
He a actor in a rapper…
@@DubBeats You need to see John Witherspoon‘s interview they all got bamboozled. Ice cube was told not to worry about financing the movie which was $2 million because if the bombed he wouldn’t lose any money. But apparently that movie made 300 million overtime and they all had contracts that they signed. So in some ways he wasn’t in control of the finances until the second one came out.
“Ima be there bc I need that paper” he’s a real OG man I used to watch his lil cooking shows he posts
Friday was NO DOUBT GOOD BUT Y'ALL SLEEPING ON "BOOMERANG" STARRING JOHN WITHERSPOON, EDDIE MURPHY, MARTIN LAWRENCE, DAVID ALLEN GRIER IT WAS FUNNY FROM BEGINNING TO END
"Your pops has a mushroom belt!" 🤣. Her coat is falling apart , " .... coordinate!"
Friday to Shanghai
My first time watching it when it came out on Netflix was last year, and I literally had it playing alll week! I love that movie 😅😅 I was disappointed my dad never introduced me to it!
Ppl gotta give Eddie his flowers bro put so many black ppl on. Harlem nights still my shit and I’m 23 😂
And Halle berry boomerang is a classic Grace Jones and Robin Givens
I can listen to John all day he seems so humble and wise and is very well spoken. RIP
Chris Tucker said he got 10 grand so they not lying. It did 300 million ice cube caked off all the Fridays. He made enough on the first one to pay for all the rest and pay the cast.
"I grab a dog....and then I choke him" R.I.P POP

I miss this brothers energy on the screen. RIP Pop.
man, yal missed the most eye opening part about this.... in the early 90s rent in LA was under $200 a month... i know times were different, but think about that
You right, $5,000 was still hella money back then, but just imagine how much they made off the movie that year tho🤯 Hollywood is like another Uncle Sam.
@realstory 78 where in my comment did I mention $5k being a lot of money?
@realstory 78 Ice Cube basically conned his co-stars out of their fair share.
Yes my fist placw was 425 with a personal patio
That's just how inflated the us dollar has become. Things aren't magically getting expensive...the value of a dollar has just plummeted.
I love the way he talked. No one had a tone and delivery like him.
I loved John in Boomerang, House Party and the What’s Happening episode Disco Dollar Disaster😊 Classic Oldies❤️
*Friday* is my favorite Black comedy ever. One of the funniest films I've ever seen. Love it.
I am so grateful that I saw him perform at the Improv before he passed. It was one of the best comedy shows I ever experienced. I literally was crying tears from laughing so hard. Such an amazing & funny man. R.I.P POPS 🙏🏾
Dam he's hella real. All about the paper, paying rent, etc.

I personally think the entire Friday series was funny as hell. I love each of them for different reasons. It wasn’t one of those movies that got worse the more they made.
"Put some hot sauce on my burrito baby! You know you look good to me!" 🤣🤣🤣
I used to watch Friday every day when I was 12. It never got old, such a good movie
Bro i still do it almost every night 😂😂😂😂
Just by hearing his voice makes me laugh. He is very natural comic actor
I barely realized I miss John Witherspoon.. The world won’t be the same without you pops ♥️
Should have been someone else interviewing him. He had so much to share!
His role as Grandad in Boondocks is good asf too
Man I will miss seeing and chopping it up with him fron time to time! Long live Pops!
He reminds me so much of my grandpa all my friends call him “Pops” after John Witherspoon ❤️💐 He was one of the BEST!
One of the most genuine hilarious people. John was the kind of guy that could make you laugh at your lowest moment. Always looking to make money cause he never knew when he would dry up. A true hustler and comedic genius.
That was one of the best John Witherspoon interview ever. We all miss you John.
Damn three legends from this movie gone, man
Shout out to John, Tiny and Bernie
Thanks for the memories
Rest in Power

"Every time I come in the kitchen, you in the kitchen...eatin all the collard greens, all the hog maws, all the chitlin" ha ha ha.
