Chris Rock made a joke about his wife being bald (said she’d be in GI Jane 2). She has no hair because she has alopecia, so he was literally making fun of her disability.

He went from laughing to pissed off enough to go slap Chris Rock in about 5 seconds. You can see Jada rolling her eyes at the joke, so it could be that Will Smith saw she got pissed and he overreacted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, the Twitter group "defending" Will Smith is just insane. And so is the rest of Hollywood for giving him a standing O for winning an Oscar moments later. It was a joke, from a legendary comedian. Will Smith had ZERO right to put his hands on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I guess bald jokes can only be directed at men. I didn't watch but saw the video. I've heard better bald jokes in my day, but Will was laughing until he got a look at the boss. Defending her is noble, but not in that way. He should have gone to jail. Rock refused to press charges but why should he have to, the incident is there for everyone to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Wow. I'll do a double dose of can't defend. Can't defend the joke, can't defend the hit. A couple not invited back announcements should be in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Middle Buffalo Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Earlier in the show, Amy Shumer paid tribute to the couples in the room. Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett. And Jake and Maggie Gylenhall (brother and sister). Should Jake Gylenhall have walked on stage and slapped Amy Shumer for implying an incestual relationship? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the hush of the audience, after Will Smith started shouting at Rock, it seemed like that's when most knew it was "real" Just so crazy that Will Smith would get up literally minutes later and give a speech on showing love. being God's vessel....after literally walking up to a guy and slapping the shit out of him for making a joke about his wife's hair loss. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but then things resumed as normal. I feel bad for Williams sisters who had their dad dragged into it with Smith invoking him as why he would have done that, and a moment that probably would have led to more people watching that film ...well, I guess there could be a Streisand-y type effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see it, but read the transcript. The tone of the words sounded like "I need to be better than this" vs holier than thou type of a speech.

Jada shaved her head because of a medical condition, and making jokes about that is out of line. Will could have handled it better but that joke was out of line. If Jada had shaved her head by pure choice, then that's fair game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoeLessRob Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Chris Rock made a joke, poor taste yes, but Will Smith committed a crime and the fact he won an award after and went on a whole tangent about love etc. is hilarious. And I’m a big Will Smith fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Is it for sure that he actually made contact with him? I haven't followed this very closely but the one shot I saw made me wonder if he actually made contact. If he did - I have no idea how Chris Rock wasn't more impacted by it. Like if someone just cold clocked me I don't think I would have reacted in that same manner (in terms of not being at the very least stunned).
