How Will Smith Feels About Chris Rock's Comedy Special (Source)

A source tells ET that Will Smith is ‘embarrassed and hurt’ by Chris Rock’s Netflix comedy special, ‘Selective Outrage.’ The live performance was the first time the comedian addressed the Oscars slap publicly.

[@travet1000]

"He wants Chris to move on" He is not the one that got humiliated on not only National and International, we are talking global embarrassment. Will needs to keep his mouth shut and let it go. Chris finally said what he had to say, he delivered it to the fullest and can take his 40 million to the bank. He earned every bit of it.

[@britneymelgar3764]

[@nancydrew1882]

I agree! Chris has been humiliated for life. His great grand children will also have to watch that. "Move on?!" They need to stop telling Chris to move on. It's up to him if he feels he's healed enough and mentally ready to move on.

[@sushmitamukherjee4025]

Will assaulted him on arguably one of the biggest platforms in the world and he wants him to “move on.” You don’t get to control how someone handles an awful moment for them just because you said sorry…I’m glad Rock handled it on his terms and in his own timing.

[@billiereyna7317]

When you hurt someone, you don’t get to decide when they “let it go”! Everyone heals in their own time. When they’re ready. Not when you’re sick of hearing about it, Will!

[@billiereyna7317]

@@azrael_morningstar Did that happen to you?! If so, that’s horrible! First of all, babies don’t typically vomit. They spit up. And they are in no way hurting anyone by doing that. They are infants! If someone gets angry at a baby for spitting up, they already had serious issues before that baby ever came along. And if they choose to hold a grudge against a BABY bc of that, that baby is probably better off without them.

Will Smith hurt Chris Rock in front of the whole world, as Oscars is watched all around the world. Now Chris Rock shamed will Smith and whole world watched, as Netflix is watched everywhere in the world. What A sweet Revenge.

Chris Rock deserves to have epic standing ovations for the rest of his life

Chris literally roasted Will in the most precise ways he could've. And turned the whole situation into another way to entertain people and make money. That's pretty sick, lol.

Chris' response was the best it could be from the beginning. My respect for him increased from that day on. Will Smith has done nothing but fall further every time he has opened his mouth since that stupid action.

[@peaceseeker9927]

It would have looked better for Will to simply acknowledge that Chris was funny in the Netflix special and wish him the best. You cannot physically attack someone and think they are supposed to be kind to you. Chris was more than civil compared to what others might have been.

[@pbsfundingaddict790]

Chris was absolutely valid to feel the way he did. He had every right to express himself in front of a ton of people who paid to see his newest standup comedy. Will can’t expect Chris to move on after he intentionally assaulted him and embarrassed him in front of the audience at the Oscars. Will obviously can’t take things like a man and I’m still staying on Chris’ side of the situation. Violence is never tolerated at a special event like the Oscars and Will needs to learn his lesson.

[@pbsfundingaddict790]

@Ima Womble Chris wasn’t bullying Jada. He didn’t know Jada was suffering from alopecia. Will had no right to slap Chris whatsoever.

[@JDSanto]

@Ima Womble You do realise that Chris is a stand-up comic right? Most comics throw banter at people in the audience. It’s a pretty standard practice.

[@shieldbrother7425]

@Ima Womble he did give the details dumby, that shit been in the lime light for years, he just talked about it. Also why can will laugh at the expense of everyone else and then get to react with violence at others, hypocrisy

[@jordanking7711]

@Ima Womble It is LITERALLY a comedian's job though Ima. If you don't like what a comedian says or does, then DON'T go to their show. But don't sit there and go after a comedian just because of what is said. So by your logic does that mean that every single comedian other than Chris should lose their jobs because of THEIR routines? Give me a break. We have become so PC and precious lately in this society lately and it's pathetic. It needs to stop.

[@belleabate5218]

@Ima Womble well he could have used words to hit him back..he had no right to assault him like that

After an apology you cannot follow up with " move on or get over it" .. He should have taken his own advice before he walked upon that stage. We have to stop putting someone's growth, moving forward and healing on a schedule or time frame.

Chris has been wanting to say this for a long time !!! And he delivered it beautifully !!! And I applaud Netflix for letting a Chris Rock say his peace without censoring him. They scored a few points with me on this one. Will, you can’t tell someone you physically attacked, humiliated and embarrassed on an global e level to “move on.” You don’t have that right. Chris will move on when HE’S ready. Not because you want him to or think he should. He was the victim in that situation (though he doesn’t consider himself one), NOT YOU AND NOT JADA !!!!

I love how when people hurt other people they always want you to move on and let go. The only reason they are able to let go is because nothing happen to them. They just feel guilty about how others will react and view them just sad .

[@ficklepickle6290]

You slapped someone who buys ink by the barrel. The pen is mightier then the sword. Chris went and did what a great comedian does and laughs at his pain and turned it into great comedy. Will picked that moment well as Chris said what’s he going to do in that moment against a much larger man and in the middle of hosting a televised event. Will is a fool to think Chris wouldn’t have brought it up on stage 😂 it was full of comedic material. Chris rock is the man and this was soo funny. Glad he did it

Ain't nowhere Chris hurt Will's feelings. He simply spoke his truth, the truth

[@jackcovey1832]

" ... the cheating rumors ... " No, they were most certainly NOT "rumors." As Rock detailed in his stand-up, Jada freely and willingly admitted to cheating on Will with her son's best friend while Will was a guest on her internet talk show "RED TABLE TALKS." In his standup, Rock claimed that Jada her bringing her husband---and the father of their two children---on her show, and then throwing this disgusting betrayal in his face was an unnecessarily cruel and incredibly embarrassing thing to do to one's spouse in public. Rock was/is right.
