Everybody talking about Jada’s alopecia and Will’s mental/emotional baggage and ain’t nobody talkin about how Chris Rock has been open about his trauma from being bullied and physically abused throughout his childhood. I can’t even begin to imagine the trauma that came as a result of this and in the moment, he handled it like an absolute champion. Gained a hell of a lot of respect for Chris. Lost a lot for Will. What he did shows that he has so little control over his life, his emotions, and his home. He needs help. And instead of admitting that he needs help, he chose to stand up there and hail himself as some sort of champion defender of his family. That mf lost his mind. That was some b*tch *ss sh*t. That’s all it was. Nothin else.

I am from europe and not interested in Hollywood gossip... but I knew about why Mrs Smith is bold... so if I know, people in the Hollywood microcosmos should have known and the whole preperation of the Oscars did a bad job in advance. That joke was not improviced... the responsibles should have checked what will be said on stage.

Chris Rock is not scared, nor was his reaction to take the hit on the chin. He remembered where he was, what his job was, and what the best course of action was at the time. The dog in Rock was to clench up, and not allow himself to be hit or swung on by anyone, but not only did he not retaliate, didn't dodge, block or run, he realized ooh, you lucky. Rock would have messed up Smith's face, but he realized who he was and what his job was and still made another joke with "Will Smith just smacked the shit outta me." Rock is a national treasure.

Steve Harvey pointed out something I hadn't thought of - Will Smith turned his back on Rock after slapping him because he KNEW he wouldn't do anything about it. He'd never do that if he weren't on national TV. And yet now there are thousands - if not millions - defending Smith rather than denouncing more unnecessary black on black violence!

out of all these, the one i agree with the most is Steve Harvey, more specifically about how Will went and slapped Chris and then just turned his back towards him.

The one thing I have not seen to be mentioned a lot is how dirty the Oscars did Chris. They hired him to tell jokes about the people in the room, allowed someone to get on stage and slap him and then did nothing about it.

"you slapped the wrong man" amen to that

[@carriecarrie7975]

I’m Team Chris on this one… I think he deserved an award for the swift recovery after a crazy situation. And as far as the joke that, for some reason, I’ve been hearing people refer to it as an ‘alopecia’ joke..Chris Rock did not joke about alopecia, he joked about a haircut. And I have hair loss, much more than Jada currently exhibits, that I have experienced for most of my adult life (20+ years of it) and I’m tired of people assuming I should be sensitive to Chris’ joke… And if we want get to the real problem, how about let’s expose the real pressure among women which is that I’ve been pressured by a lot of women to shave my head. “Like, just do it, it’s so easy.. you’ll feel better once you do it.” Pressured by women who are not experiencing any hair loss, that have a full head of hair.🙄 No! 🤬 I will do what I want… when/if I get ready for that stage. Perhaps this was a sore subject for Jada because society has pressured her to think that she has to accept the short cut before she is ready. She didn’t have to, but she looks good with it, she has a nice shaped head. Being compared to Demi Moore (as GI Jane) was also a compliment because that character still looked good either way too. However I don’t feel sorry for Jada. She has a gajillion dollars and can afford to look however she pleases. Most of us don’t have all the options she has at her fingertips. People saying she doesn’t have control over how she looks.. actually, she does, because she can buy any look she wants…She could buy a whole new head if she wants…on the other hand, I wish I had those unlimited options at my fingertips but I don’t. She didn’t have to shave her head. It was a choice. Will Smith has been looking for someone to slap for a long time now…Chris Rock was the only one he knew he could get away with that😅 he probably wanted to slap Regina Hall and Rebel Wilson for the jokes they made about Jada and all her boyfriends, then he probably also wanted to slap Jada for making their family the butt of all the jokes (by telling all their personal business/dirty laundry at table talk (and with the boyfriend, that was her son’s age) and lastly he probably wanted to slap himself for allowing this all to come to a head😅. I do think that the reason people were forced to take a hard look at Will Smith’s behavior, in the aftermath, was mainly because Chris Rock handled the situation better than most people would have. When forced to look at the juxtaposition of the two successful black men in Hollywood, and their behavior/responses, side by side, the obvious conclusion should have been the undeniable observation being the one that held it together vs the one that could not. Had Chris Rock responded with the same violent behavior that Will Smith did initially, this could have been analyzed completely different and we all might be having a completely different conversation. I am so glad Chris Rock did not lose himself in that moment. And lastly, I think the thing that is most upsetting to me is that we have been complaining/boycotting for the lack of diversity from previous year awards (and Oscars ‘oh so white’ stuff) and then the first moment they okay it, well, ‘so-called’ okay for more black and brown presence, what the heck do we do??….Be so sensitive about a joke? Come on. If we really want to be equal then we are not exempt to the same roasting that occurs (no matter the race, gender, etc).. we can’t use excuses like black women are sensitive to their hair.. and if they can’t take it, they shouldn’t be sitting up in the front (in the roasting section)🙄 but this goes deeper I said the same thing when President Obama became the first black President. We were proud and happy that it happened, but others should have been able to criticize him, just like they’ve criticized every single president that came before him. That shows me the mindset has changed and we are all the same.. but if people have to walk on eggshells around us (for fear of being accused of being racist) then we aren’t equal… but it’s because the people (us) who want to have a seat at the table of equality, haven’t really convinced ourselves that we are all equal. And that’s not the other group’s fault… that’s the fault of the people who want to sit there too. Once we free ourselves of that mental enslavement and mindset, our communities will get over this little chip we have on our shoulders, but until then we will continue to see this broken mindset and degenerate more still and nobody on the outside can heal that (solve that) fix that. This has to be fixed on the inside. There is no amount of free stuff, or reparations, or apologies, or groveling, or amounts of affirmative action that will solve this currently unsolvable puzzle within the black community.

Chris handled himself like a champ!

[@flowforever9084]

I'm glad that Chris had mad restraint . Most men wld hv knocked Will out😳

[@angelmedina1629]

Chris Rick was about to go in when he said you know what I could, but he caught himself n realized he had the upper hand in real time. That’s how a comedians mind works

[@nailah783]

I saw that too

[@mrch33sehed93]

Bet he was gonna say "I could've made an 'entanglement' joke" but he was like nah

[@thatsthejobbb8587]

That's Will Smith's problem... There's enough material there for the average Joe, nevermind one of the greats😂

[@dorothymonroe]

I thought I was only one that caught that. He showed restraint.

[@beldarin]

I think it shows how incredibly quick witted Chris Rock is that he got his instinctive first reaction under control so fast

[@sharonozvenom]

Corey Holcomb was spot on with his assessment !!!!

[@christorres7868]

Rickey Smiley imo had the exact right response on how Will should have responded and handled that situation.

[@iamatexan4334]

Chris Rock should have told Will Smith the jokes were written back in August - 😂 😆 😝

DL Hughley kinda sounded like he danced around condemning will for it. I’m sure Chris rock did not know about her alopecia and if he did he probably forgot. To get so offended to hit someone for a joke referencing your wife to a strong female role because of her style of hair is ridiculous. Amber rose and many other females have had that same style. I’m sure no one sees it and thinks alopecia. That whole family is twisted and honestly Iv lost a lot of respect for will because of this. Like all that energy for Chris rock but not august alsina

[@trapvandamn]

Good

[@erictolbert5769]

Dude you believe he didn't know,you crazy and he was warned to stop attacking her by will and he kept going.

[@thechildfromthevillage]

@@erictolbert5769 warned? When

[@southerngirlchef5886]

IKR, right, he makes me tired when he analyze situations! 🙄 *signs* While, talking he throws up the 666 symbol. 🤦‍♀️ I rewind it to the next person. He knows he can’t say too much about his fellow boule partner. Will, will probably smack the boule out of him.

[@erictolbert5769]

@Ladie Vee there you go with the ifs and buts,if that person you claimed would slap him back ,had been talking about his wife for years,they would've gotten the same results Chris did.he went to him as a man and asked him to stop and he kept going basically saying f you will.the punk shit was antagonizing him.

[@cee0816]

"this n**** is chasing a dead man's swag" Corey Holcomb is FUNNY...I have watched his part like 4 times and laughed out loud every time

[@michellechalmers8753]

Corey Holcomb hit the nail at its core.

[@tebill8248]

This man said keep my wife name out yo mouth. Chris should have said you need to keep men out her panties.

[@nanchanger]

But the guy porking Jada gets no slap... ??
