Chris Rock has finally addressed the shocking encounter with Will Smith at the 2022 Oscars, where Smith slapped him over a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head. Following the incident, Rock opted not to file a police report, suggesting he does not hold Smith as an enemy and may attribute Smith’s actions to a moment of anger and confusion.
In the wake of the slap, reactions from Hollywood were mixed. While some defended Smith for standing up for his wife, others condemned his actions as unacceptable. Celebrities like Denzel Washington and Tyler Perry were seen comforting Smith shortly after the incident, while viewers and industry figures expressed their thoughts through social media, sparking a heated debate about the appropriateness of Smith’s violent response.
The joke referenced Pinkett Smith’s struggle with alopecia, a condition she has openly discussed. This incident wasn’t just a spontaneous outburst; it highlighted a longstanding history between Rock and the Smiths, including past jokes Rock has made at their expense. Ultimately, the altercation raised questions about boundaries, humor, and the nature of public altercations.
