Damon Wayans claims Walmart settled with Tracy Morgan for $90 million.
Earlier this year, 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, received, but Damon Wayans believes the number is 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.
Morgan’s reps have since said Wayans is lying, 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.”
