It’s fitting that the most iconic laughs of all time come from comedians. Two prime examples of this are Eddie Murphy and Seth Rogen, who both have authentic chuckles that people have been spoofing, mocking or imitating since the start of their respective careers. This was so rampant that when Murphy realized his laugh was the punchline, he dropped it entirely, and Seth Rogen considers the irony of it all to be very upsetting.

I spoke with Seth Rogen for his Amazon Prime show
"Sausage Party: Foodtopia." When I told him that Eddie Murphy had been consciously suppressing his natural laughter for decades, Rogen not only expressed how much the concept disturbed him, but of course had a hilarious take on it.
Transcript
00:00I was just talking to Eddie Murphy about you.
00:02Really?
00:03Yeah.
00:04That's the craziest thing ever.
00:05I assume he hates me?
00:06That's it.
00:07He was talking about how he had to ditch his iconic laugh because he was sick of people
00:14talking about it.
00:15And I said, well, I'm about to talk to Seth Rogen.
00:17Should I ditch it?
00:18He looked in the camera and he said, Seth, you've done everything right and keep doing
00:25that laugh.
00:26Look how far it's gotten you.
00:28Wow.
00:29That's crazy.
00:30Look at that.
00:31He still did the laugh though.
00:32Didn't he?
00:33No, he ditched it.
00:34It's gone.
00:35Did he only do it in the first Beverly Hills Cop?
00:36I think it was the first two.
00:37And Golden Child.
00:38He's doing that shit in Golden Child.
00:39Definitely Golden Child.
00:40For real?
00:41But then he stopped doing it?
00:42He intentionally stopped doing it.
00:43And then he went on his tangent about how difficult it was as a human being to take
00:44this natural element of you and then suppress it.
00:45A comedian taking their own laugh away.
00:46That's like the plot of The Little Mermaid.
