Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Bernie Mac performed his famous 'Milk and Cookies' routine about his drug-addicted mother for years before revealing she was still alive — she attended his funeral in 2008.
This dropped in 2012 when the 'Kings of Comedy' tour felt like ancient history — the doc helped cement Bernie as more than 'that guy from Ocean's Eleven' for younger audiences.
