Comedian Chris Rock was slapped on the Oscars stage by actor Will Smith for a joke about Will’s wife.
Chris Rock had made a joke on Jada Pinkett Smith and compared her tightly cropped hair to Demi Moore’s appearance in the film “GI Jane”.
In the joke he even suggested she appear in a sequel.
Chris Rock even after the slap, kept calm and tried to proceed with the act.
He while reacting to the incident said, “That was the greatest night in the history of television.”
Jada Pinkett Smith, who is also an actress, suffers from alopecia, and publicly revealed her diagnosis in 2018.
Will may have been moved forward with the action because of this.
However, the action by Will was widely criticized on social media.
However, it is yet to be clear if Chris Rock will press any charges against Will Smith for the assault which was covered on live TV.
