Back in May, it was reported that Walmart settled with Tracy Morgan over the accident that killed one of Morgan’s friends on the New Jersey Turnpike. It was unknown at the time just how much money Morgan, who’s still recovering from the crash (although he’s thankfully well enough to host SNL), received, but Damon Wayans claims the figure is somewhere around $90 million.
The In Living Color star was on Charlamagne Tha God’s Breakfast Club radio show this morning, when he dropped the number while discussing “comedians who have the financial independence to do comedy on their own terms,” according to TMZ. That still doesn’t explain G-Force.
Morgan’s representatives have since said Wayans is full of it, telling TMZ, “Tracy has had no contact with Mr. Wayans since before the accident, so there is no way he would be able to know this and thus is false.” But if the settlement was for $90 million, some poor Walmart executive won’t be able to buy a new solid-gold house this year. He’s the real victim.
