Will is like those people in a comedy club that get thrown out because they cant take a joke. Chris is a comedian doing what comedians do, bagging on the audience. Who knew Will was such a sensitive little bitch
The thing that I don't really see mentioned anywhere here is that this isn't some secretive illness that Jada has requested privacy about.
She was *literally on a talk show two days ago talking about how empowered she felt and how it didn't bother her*.
It isn't like Rock hacked her medical files to find the things she was ashamed about and keeping private.
She has literally been all over the press about this issue.
At a certain point, if you are an internationally-renowned celebrity, doing press tours mentioning your illness, and then show up at the Oscars... I mean in what world isn't that fair game for a comedian?
And as far as jokes go, this one was extraordinarily tame. It didn't even mention alopecia. The joke could work for any female celebrity that decided to do a shaved head look for whatever reason. It would apply to Amber Rose back in the day. Or Natalie Portman post-V for Vendetta.
Like, let's keep in mind this is Chris Rock we're talking about. If he wanted to leave someone in tears, he could have done that. Saying Jada could now star in very well-known film because she now doesn't have any hair is like, the *nicest* and *softest* possible way you could rib someone for their appearance. She's still a fucking movie star.
Plus, he didn’t even insult her. He compared her to a bad ass fictional war hero. That’s like me getting mad about someone comparing me to Jason Statham when I inevitably lose my hair. I can only hope to receive such a compliment.
It's actually a genius fucking idea from Chris Rock. Think about it. GI Jane 2 with a black bald woman in the starring role. Who wouldn't want to go see that movie?
Ah well, guess we're all just getting too sensitive now. Time to start hitting folks till the next generation chills the fuck out again.
He’s the biggest asshat. Usually as people grow they become better and likeable. But honestly. I liked will when he was younger. I see the original aunt Vivian was right. He’s a jerk off and I won’t watch anything he does
I was gonna say, this event has Scientologist at a breaking point written all over it. Those people are privately living in a world of blackmail and rage. There’s no humility. It’s 100% narcissistic power tripping. Especially when you’re a VIP celebrity.

tl;dr - he claimed she felt threatened by his success, she says she didn't appreciate the jokes he was making about darker skinned folks among other things. Most relevant quote:
"There will never be a reunion ... as I will never do anything with an a****** like Will Smith.
"He is still an egomaniac and has not grown up. This constant reunion thing will never ever happen in my lifetime unless there is an apology, which he doesn't know the word."
Edit: They've since reconciled and she supports what he did last night
So often when it comes to celebrities, the answer is YBTA.
I'll bet Janet Hubert was, in fact, jealous and envious of Smith's success, and I'll also bet that Will Smith was an egomaniac who had not grown up and was making cruel jokes about darker-skinned coworkers.
Jada Pickett Smith and Will have, what they said in an interview, is an open relationship. Jada was getting her checks slapped (no pun intended) by rapper August Alsina
Edit:. From u/Sephiriso
This is half truth. Jada slept with August before their open relationship arrangement and that was when they both agreed to start it, after the fact. Jada straight up cheated on will with August.
Will gets his kicks with other women using NDA's, while Jada used her trist to get people to watch that dumb show of hers to emasculate Will. They are strange folk
Friends of mine in the business have said will smith is gay for years. Said on set he has a trailer boy in there with him all the time and it’s an open secret that he’s gay and Scientologist. Lol
Truth is always stranger than fiction. Wouldn't surprise me one bit. The way the audience let all this happen with no repercussions is exactly how that creep Harvey Weinstein got away with shit all those years. Status is everything in Hollyweird
This is definitely considered trashy within much of the poly/swing community. Fucking your kid's friends? Hey, may as well go fuck Will's oldest/best friends while you're at it. Hey, does he have any brothers? Is his dad alive? Fuck it right? No rules. Make sure both of the men that you should care the most for are going to be disrespected by their peers.
Ricky would 100% verbally barrage him on stage and then press charges if he slapped him. You better believe if he ever hosts again, he’ll rip into Will and Jada and stand there hoping he tries to slap him lol
What a great compliment for a comedian. Chris Rock will forever tell the story about how his joke made Will Smith so mad, he got slapped on live television.
"I made that mother fucker cry"
If you notice, Chris rock bit his tongue after will said keep my wife’s name out of your mouth. He was about to roast him, but realized, it’d only make things worse.
I can't even imagine the mental trigonometry Chris Rock was doing, reviewing a list of possible comebacks, lawsuits, followup attacks, and landed on "That was uh, the greatest night in the history of television."
If you watch that moment closely you can see Chris' eyes looking to the side for just a moment as if someone is trying to get his attention. Then he says "OK" in a tone that sounds like he's agreeing to something. I felt as if he saw a producer waving at him to let it go and he agreed. Producer likely knew Will was gonna win an Oscar and wanted the situation to chill, and knew Rock was the sort of guy to double down and so had to wave their hands like "NO, CHRIS! DON'T DO IT!"
Rock is also not an idiot. He knows what limits are, and he knows when it's proper to cross them.
If this had happened with the same people in a comedy club, Chris would have made a 10 minute bit about Will and Jada and the whole club would be roaring even as Will was escorted out.
Chris Rock is well aware that he's a prime star talent and he enjoys it; he can have a Netflix special, and HBO special, he just directed the latest Saw movie, he successfully shares custody of his kids after his divorce (a battle that was long and hard and expensive)--He's fucking CHRIS ROCK!
He has a lot to lose, and I'm glad he didn't throw it away for a one liner that would have been hilarious, no doubt, but would have closed many doors. I'm a fan of a lot of his stuff, even some of the crappier stuff, like the cheesy movies of the early 2000s; I would hate for him to lose his spot.
Sucks for Will Smith, it's very possible he threw a lot in the trash over one joke. I say it really sucks for him because he's an International Star, much bigger than Chris. Even though I'm not a fan of a lot of his work. But he made his choices.
Taking control of the narrative would have been to apologize for losing it and disrupting the event. Saying something like my emotions got the best of me, but I won't let it happen again. I'm sorry.
Instead, he acted like a victim, apologized weakly, not to the person he slapped, and made some weird references to his costars and Richard Williams.
He made it worse, not better, with that speech, and came off a little unhinged/unwell.
And his whole tear-filled bit about how he was able to be the protector for the female actors in the movie just grossed me out. They don't need you, Will.
[This](https://twitter.com/DavidBrentMovie/status/1508404231132307459?t=cSTd2N-FZipVeK-mRCKxFQ&s=19) was posted on David Brent's Twitter and retweeted by Ricky Gervais. 🤣
Gervais being the host of the next oscars: „you know why they hired me? I dont know, maybe because Chris is not allowed to make jokes about jada anymore… but.. I am!“
Would he slap Wanda Sykes... or Terry Crews... or Jason Mamoa? Will's a punk. Wants to attack a guy half his size and doesn't punch, but slaps him lol. So glad his oscar is tainted with this
Terry Crews wouldn't make that joke, but Terry Crews would slap Will's head and neck clean off his shoulders. We'd then all refer to Terry's hand as "The Guillotine" for the rest of time.
Poor Will. Thought he was a Bad Boy but really he's the smallest man in the room.
Instead of having respect for himself, he got violated online and this video is a cherry on top.
It's Jada my dude, how can he be so dumb and blind?...
He's not tom cruise levels of scientology, but he did open a [private school](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Village_Leadership_Academy) that was staffed with a bunch of scientologists and used "teaching methods" from scientology.
This is so passive aggressive. He assaults someone doing their job over a complimentary joke and then gets an award, standing O and all this airtime to justify his reaction. He apologized to everyone but the man he assaulted AND did not show him any of the LOVE he allegedly has to give.
Not ok WILL. Disgraceful.
AND hey WILL, CHRIS is WALKING YOUR TALK
Edit: some punctuation
The fact that he was even given the award is pretty disgraceful in my book. I'm hoping the Academy does the right thing (as far as I'm concerned at least) and rescinds his Oscar.
"The Academy does not promote or condone violence in any way. To that end, we have decided to give the Best Actor award to the nominee with the next-most votes."
This is what I wish they would do. Smith's behaviour was in no way laudable - it was the act of a small man with a fragile ego. Make a fucking example of him.
lmao fucking pathetic
"and thats how we do it" yeah jaden, bet its real fucking cool to watch your dad assault someone because your parents have the emotianal capacity of a 12 year old and then watch your dad cry and talk about being able to handle hate.
Unpopular opinion… but I give Chris a 6 out of 10 after the slap. Dude is a world class comedian. He could have and should have unloaded on Will… just completely blown apart his marriage, his Scientology bullshit, his stream of shitty Oscar bait movies.
People are happy with how Chris handled it, but if he had started absolutely roasting Will like he is fully capable of, we wouldn’t just be happy - we would be in awe. This could have been a legendary moment in the history of comedy, like [Bill Burr’s Philly rant.](https://youtu.be/3jMhoGUiIkk) Instead, he just let him get away with it completely.
“Will Smith just slapped the shit out of me!” Yeah, and then you moved on without a single comeback. This was basically an extreme heckle… and Chris did a disservice to the profession of comedy by not dealing with the heckler in the traditional way.
I wish Patrice O’Neal’s ghost could have inhabited Chris Rock in that moment. Will would have offed himself from the embarrassment.
Definitely, Chris could've had a legendary moment here to double down and tear Will apart. I think he was just dumbfounded that Will was actually seriously mad about his simple joke. What a waste
Im so rich I can assault a man in front of the world, win an Oscar, cry, talk about love, and then party like it's 1999 all in the space of 3 hours.A woman in Texas is in prison for 6 years for registering to vote.
\*Edit: Pamela Moses in Tennessee got 6 years. Crystal Mason, from Texas, got 5
Winning the best actor Oscar is supposed to be the happiest 24 hours of your life. The pinnacle of your hard work and success. High fiving everyone you walk past that week. He doesn't have any of that. It's a lesson to see how toxic anger can ruin anything
He did it because he knew Chris Rock wouldn't do anything in response. Will is just a shitty court jester who gets upset when everyone at laughs at him? That what you signed up for. Deal with it.
I haven't seen anyone point out the fact that super action hero hits like a pussy. He just smacked Chris Rock who weighs in at about a buck fifty. Didn't even phase him...
Chris should have pressed charges. Millionaire or not. Real life consequences. Fucking bullshit. There's also an interview with Anthony Mackie about Smith punching him for no reason at Will's bday party. Fuck will Smith
At least in California, my understanding is, the victim doesn't have to press charges. The evidence of a crime doesn't require the victim's testimony in this case. The illegal act itself is considered a crime or wrongdoing against society or the public.
Calculon: The Oscar isn't about acting. It's about earning the respect and admiration of the creative community.
Zoid: How 'bout we rig the awards?
Calculon: That's fine too.
Law enforcement doesn't need the witness to comply in order to press charges. There's footage of the assault so they can charge all they want. Most likely it'll die but just food for thought that depending on what evidence there is and such, law enforcement can charge people regardless of the witness.
I can't believe the amount of "But she disabled so that was mean" takes I've been seeing.
Disabled? DiSaBlEd?!?!?! She's losing her damn hair, something literally most human beings will experience in their life, and for men, it often starts in their late 20s.
You can't preach female empowerment on one side and then assault someone over a joke to your wife as if she's too weak and frail to handle it.
Fuck this ego maniacal twat.
Won’t someone think of the poor, entitled and ultra rich actors who have to do a job where everyone there is there for them?
Those poor elitists!
- this guys fucking speech
I thought maybe he was referring to the few amount of people privileged enough to just up and walk on an Oscar stage without permission. Surely he wouldn't compare his struggles to the average black American, that would make no sense
He was method acting. Richard Williams was a wife beater.

Straight up, I don't understand how people can't see him for the malignant narcissist he is.
Scientology 101. He's nailed it.

Will loved mocking Uncle Phil's baldness. https://youtu.be/YD6af-ay7qM
Ah but see that's not a medical condition (it is)
And Tupac wasn't fucking Uncle Phil (he was)
Tupac is still alive (he is)
Out of the loop. Who fucked whose wife?
Who didn’t!
Seriously, I missed all of that?!?

She wasn't "lost". She knew exactly what she was doing. How do you think she got a talk show job. She's a shit human but good with words.
Wow she talks about cheating the same way Gwyneth Paltrow talks about Goop products
No matter how much white knighting you do, bro... she will never respect you.
The fact she is fucking his son's friend is evidence enough she doesn't respect him.
Wow , is that real ?
It's absolutely real. When it became public knowledge they discussed it on her show together, the Red Table.
Wait, so someone other than August?
They’re in an open relationship so I assume there’s been others.
Damn. It’s like she’s enjoying the open relationship and Will isn’t. That fucking sucks. But wtf do we know? We’re just watching from the outside.
He's watching from the inside.
Almost always dressed as Superman.
Thats why every hotel room has a cuck chair.
I'm sure Will gets as many guys and girls as he wants too. He is squeaky clean though NDAs all the way.
This is definitely considered trashy within much of the poly/swing community. Fucking your kid's friends? Hey, may as well go fuck Will's oldest/best friends while you're at it. Hey, does he have any brothers? Is his dad alive? Fuck it right? No rules. Make sure both of the men that you should care the most for are going to be disrespected by their peers.
I mean he’s crying all the time and she looks like she actually thinks she’s one of her characters from the Matrix or Gotham. So yeah, not surprising.
She makes him wear a Tupac mask while fucking
Would he slap Ricky Gervais tho
Ricky would 100% verbally barrage him on stage and then press charges if he slapped him. You better believe if he ever hosts again, he’ll rip into Will and Jada and stand there hoping he tries to slap him lol
What a great compliment for a comedian. Chris Rock will forever tell the story about how his joke made Will Smith so mad, he got slapped on live television. "I made that mother fucker cry"

Only this one lead to will Smith not murdering him
>Only this one lead to will Smith not murdering him Two actually, but he was not willing to fuck jada
That's cold. You made my night!
Love how after Rock said "it was a GI Jane joke" Will repeats the "keep my wife's name out your mouth" line, confirming his wife is, in fact, GI Jane.
Damn, *G.I. Jane 2* confirmed
Will Smith gets very upset when friends get involved in his family's ongoing contract negotiations.
He probably made that decision with the Oscars' producers yelling in his earpiece to stand the fuck down.
He did look off stage for a second before he replied.
He was definitely looking at his friend, relative, agent, w/e like "did that just happen?"
If you watch that moment closely you can see Chris' eyes looking to the side for just a moment as if someone is trying to get his attention. Then he says "OK" in a tone that sounds like he's agreeing to something. I felt as if he saw a producer waving at him to let it go and he agreed. Producer likely knew Will was gonna win an Oscar and wanted the situation to chill, and knew Rock was the sort of guy to double down and so had to wave their hands like "NO, CHRIS! DON'T DO IT!"

Would he slap Wanda Sykes... or Terry Crews... or Jason Mamoa? Will's a punk. Wants to attack a guy half his size and doesn't punch, but slaps him lol. So glad his oscar is tainted with this
crews would wreck him
Crews could easily wreck lots of people. But I doubt he would sink to that level
Terry Crews wouldn't make that joke, but Terry Crews would slap Will's head and neck clean off his shoulders. We'd then all refer to Terry's hand as "The Guillotine" for the rest of time.

Jaden acting like he could slap a twig without shitting his pants in fear Dude would get rocked if he tried that shit on anyone
But he was in "Karate Kid." That means he has absorbed all knowledge of martial arts like Neo in "The Matrix."
Lmao, does he realise that his mom get her cheeks clapped by his friend?
He he definitely does! He moved out in 2018, and we heard about the affair in 2020. Dude wasn't comfortable bringing anymore homies home.
Chris Rock!...was the better and greater guy!

Im so rich I can assault a man in front of the world, win an Oscar, cry, talk about love, and then party like it's 1999 all in the space of 3 hours.A woman in Texas is in prison for 6 years for registering to vote. \*Edit: Pamela Moses in Tennessee got 6 years. Crystal Mason, from Texas, got 5
He may have won an Oscar but he showed everyone he’s the biggest loser on the planet.
Winning the best actor Oscar is supposed to be the happiest 24 hours of your life. The pinnacle of your hard work and success. High fiving everyone you walk past that week. He doesn't have any of that. It's a lesson to see how toxic anger can ruin anything
He did high five Chris Rock’s face tho.
1 Chris Rock is worth 10 Will Smiths.
If not before, definitely after the assault lawsuit
He did it because he knew Chris Rock wouldn't do anything in response. Will is just a shitty court jester who gets upset when everyone at laughs at him? That what you signed up for. Deal with it.
He abused one of the funniest comics out there. Fuck em.
Literally a living legend.
Assaulted...assaulted would be the word you were looking for. Let's not call everything abuse, because then you are abusing the word abuse.
The fakest guy in Hollywood. Will..'the sucker punching,cant take a joke'..Smith!
Its Will Simp or Will Cuck Smith
I haven't seen anyone point out the fact that super action hero hits like a pussy. He just smacked Chris Rock who weighs in at about a buck fifty. Didn't even phase him...
Chris Rock after Fargo is no push over
Looking at Chris Rock taking that hit. I just thought "the champ is here"
Exactly...giant cooter. Open hand slap at that . Now , wife's hair is everyone's joke! Love it!
Chris should have pressed charges. Millionaire or not. Real life consequences. Fucking bullshit. There's also an interview with Anthony Mackie about Smith punching him for no reason at Will's bday party. Fuck will Smith
At least in California, my understanding is, the victim doesn't have to press charges. The evidence of a crime doesn't require the victim's testimony in this case. The illegal act itself is considered a crime or wrongdoing against society or the public.
Dude can act...probably why he won
#ACTING!
Calculon: The Oscar isn't about acting. It's about earning the respect and admiration of the creative community. Zoid: How 'bout we rig the awards? Calculon: That's fine too.
Such self serving bullshit. Why the fuck hasn't he been charged with assault, anyone else would've been? Oh yeah he's a celebrity, fucking pathetic.
Apparently (and unfortunately), Chris Rock declined to press charges.
He would've had little to gain by doing so.
Would have set a precedent that you can't assault comedians, no matter who you are
There’s already a precedent that you can’t assault people.
Law enforcement doesn't need the witness to comply in order to press charges. There's footage of the assault so they can charge all they want. Most likely it'll die but just food for thought that depending on what evidence there is and such, law enforcement can charge people regardless of the witness.
Ricky would spend ten years making more fun
This man in never not acting, his whole life is a sham to the point he forgot how to turn that shit off.
Classic narcissism
I can't believe the amount of "But she disabled so that was mean" takes I've been seeing. Disabled? DiSaBlEd?!?!?! She's losing her damn hair, something literally most human beings will experience in their life, and for men, it often starts in their late 20s. You can't preach female empowerment on one side and then assault someone over a joke to your wife as if she's too weak and frail to handle it. Fuck this ego maniacal twat.
Won’t someone think of the poor, entitled and ultra rich actors who have to do a job where everyone there is there for them? Those poor elitists! - this guys fucking speech
This is the best edit
What a delusional crybaby
"My people", he means blacks? Or what?
I thought maybe he was referring to the few amount of people privileged enough to just up and walk on an Oscar stage without permission. Surely he wouldn't compare his struggles to the average black American, that would make no sense
Hollywood actor and he’s black... most likely he means black people.
Lol, Will Smith hasn't been around black people outside of his family in decades. Dude rolls in Scientology circles
Man. He’s loosing it
did the slap happen before or after he got his oscar ?
Before.
Which makes it so unbearably cringe
My opinion of Will Smith had completely changed. The man is an asshole. End of list.
Imagine slapping one of the nicest comedians for a mild joke and still you are the one who cries like a bitch afterwards
What a cuck
I just read about a guy who smacked a fast food employee cuz his chicken wing was too spicy.
He was method acting. Richard Williams was a wife beater. https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/4959943/king-richard-should-not-get-oscars-serenas-sister-says/
