Insane amt of control. I think his disability that he said he discovered, that he doesn't pick up non verbal is what contributed to the situation happening/ unfolding the way it did. He wasn't able to pickup on Will's demeanor or his approach towards him, that it was aggressive and was going to result in battery, albeit slap or punch. His disability wouldn't have allowed him to, so he stood there not anticipating aggression, and actually smiled, right up until receiving the slap. His disability ended up being what saved the "show." Had he been ANY of us, without the disability, he may have had WAY more knee jerk reaction and everyone woulda been Kung-Fu fighting. He literally had this disability serve him in self-control, in the seconds that someone w/o his condition would've just been ready to retaliate, on or off camera. It really was something ELSE.
@@wordlifefactory1656 It wasn't a disability. He misjudged Will and gave him credit for having the common sense not to do something stupid in front of the whole world. Will considered Chris weak and would not have done that to any almost any other comedian because they would have been scrapping right there on stage, which would have been a worse spectacle!
Can we say Chris ain’t no fool. When you look at him in the moment, he gave respect to Will like a child to a man. Ailing people should be off limits. It’s improper to get on the largest stage in the world and demean a man’s ailing wife. You don’t get to choose the consequences.
I'm with you when it comes to people checking on Chris. That was embarrassing. He didn't deserve that and having to continue the show afterwards had to be hard. I hope he's OK.
Rock was backstage afterwards so I’m hoping we just didn’t see it. We saw Will being talked to because he was sitting front row. I’m sure Rock was checked on.
@@beatrue9894 and nobody on that writing team can tell me they hadn’t heard about Jada saying she has alopecia! They just didn’t gaf. Now they’re saying they asked Will to leave but he refused. Yet when he won they let him talk for what seemed like forever instead of cutting him off like they do everybody else. It ain’t adding up to me!
@@aj25055 exactly, they disrespected Will and Jada with the marriage joke and then her appearance and used Regina Hall and Chris Rock to do it, there are women with cancer and other diseases that loose their hair, it was hurtful to her
My friend said the smartest thing I’ve heard all morning. “Nobody will remember Will for finally winning his Oscar. They’ll only remember the slap.” Sad. But I can’t be concerned with those rich ass ppl and their “problems.”
I agree with you 100%. The man is entitled to feel the way he felt. Could he have chosen a better way to handle it, yes. I just hate he tarnished his long overdue Oscar win and Will Packer’s honor.
Will and Jada are narcissists. When Will didn't get nominated, Jada felt like he DESERVED it and tried to boycott the Oscars. Then when they do finally show up again, Will shows his ass!! I'm from Philly and I can say that I have liked Will but I don't necessarily think he's the absolute BEST!! Jada's condition is not terminal like cancer, so Will was completely in the wrong and he needs to apologize to Chris bc Chris just only does his job. OH, AND WILL LAUGHED TOO, JS!!
Unless it's life threatening, I would never put a man I love in a position that can risk his life, his freedom and his integrity to protect me from a joke. That's not love and defending each other's well being.
Yes he did girl because that could not be me. I would of slapped Will back. He didn't punch or beat August's ass for sleeping with his wife. But he's going to slap lil Chris Rock for a joke he told that even he laughed at about his wife. The joke wasn't even bad. Tbh the last time I checked I thought Jada was boycotting the Oscars. Will needs to leave her ass. She's bad news.
He did tho, n tried to awkwardly go on. The fact is will knew who to slap. Bc he ain’t try not any of the thousands of folks going in & harder on jada.
I believe Will would have let the joke slide if Jada found it funny. You can see the Jada was clearly upset about the joke he made and that triggered Will. I just hate Will didn't wait till the afterparty to slap him.
You actually think Chris is 'hanging out' after these shows lol?! I vote NO. Besides after DECADES of insulting people including celebs primarily Black women I get the impression, he is not well liked.
And the way the audience laughed and cheered at the joke about jada boycotting the oscars which she’s not invited to told me a lot of ppl in that room didn’t like her or her boycott. Jada is an easy target for him.
But that just shows how fed up he is. This not Chris Rock first Jada joke at the Oscar's. Then to joke about her hair when it's falling out and she been talking about that for months now trying to cope with Alopecia and that's what he jokes about? My hair is falling out and I do declare its a tough journey for a women. They been getting joked about by celebrities in their faces....enough is enough!
I never cared too much for Chris Rock but Will was dead wrong in this instance. I feel sorry for Chris' family, his 2 daughters in particular, who had to watch their dad get assaulted on national tv and now relive it everyday due to the ridicule and headlines. On another note, Will def knows who he can and CANT do that to!!!
And now he's going to be further be the butt of jokes because he over reacted to a joke he thought was funny. He was laughing along until he saw Jada's eye roll.
I was shocked they didn’t escort him out. 😂 I was sure they were gonna ask Will and Jada to leave - then he won! What a memorable night in more ways than one for Will.
@@StopIt-ic8of see this is the problem we should stop caring whether or not they accept us Will Smith slapping Chris rock does not equal up to 400 years of oppression where they never accepted us. We should have our own we build bridges we are the culture we make the money there will be no Hollywood without us consuming their crap
I love Will, I love Chris. I can't defend or justify Will's action. Chris was making jokes same as any other host on any other award show. Don't matter the reason I can't agree with Will's action.
Exactly. These shows...of you are in attendance or nominated, you know you will be or could be the butt of some jokes or roasted. That's just how this goes. Jada is not off limits. Will is not off limits. He was seen to be laughing at first so I am genuinely confused.
I can get behind the reason behind the emotion of how the joke made Jada feel, therefore how it made him feel....BUT like he said, his actions was uncalled for and that shouldve been better executed. I wishes she would have stood up (even if she didnt feel like it) and owned the comment and let it be known that it is okay and she was still beautiful because she is.
Comedians do not have a free pass on mean spirited “jokes” born from their own trauma or insecurities. Chris did this to Jada in 2016 when he hosted the Oscars.
People seem to forget that… Will is from Philly and Jada is from Baltimore. As a fellow alopecia warrior, my hair falls out and (sometimes) regrows back in cycles, I often find myself cutting my hair, shaving a lot of areas. I commend Will for standing up for his wife. I am also surprised that Chris made this joke, with how vocal Jada has been about her alopecia journey and how sensitive she is about experiencing it, coupled with Chris Rock doing the documentary “Good Hair” a few years ago to encourage his own daughters about embracing their own hair
When Wayne Brady said “Is Wayne Brady gonna have to slap a bitch?” because Paul Mooney and Dave Chappelle called him weak, this what I imagined he was saying 😂😂😂
That slap goes deeper than last night’s joke! You can’t tell me that’s the ONLY time his wife has been disrespected. So either there is a deep rooted history between them ORRRR Jada is actually dealing with a health issue that is more serious than Alopecia and the family is very sensitive to that right now
I agree. I saw it on Jadas face last night that she already knew a joke was coming and her reaction to me shows it wasn’t the first or second time. I think Will said this is the last time though 🤣
@blk coverboy I totally agree with your assessment and I believe it's both. At the end of the day these folks are people too! They hurt, they bleed, and they have feelings.
I agree with you . This is deeper than the pain of he and his wife , he’s going through it and seem to be searching God for answers . My prayers to him that he truly finds peace with the Lord… because Fame and Fortune isn’t doing it !!!! And it never will 🙏🏽🤗🙏🏽❤️
Thank you for looking at this from all angles. As humans we sometimes try to make things so black and white. Life is simply not so. Will's action was out of pocket, yet it doesn't end there. The consequences of his actions started last night and will continue. On the flip side, he felt the need to defend his wife's honor at the whatever costs. In other news, Chris Rock deserved an Oscar for his performance and ability to stay in character. He's got material for the rest of his career.
That last part of your comment... Aameen!! He's definitely set for life for sure after last nite. I know I'M going to be the first to buy a ticket if he ever does another stand-up!😅
That slap was 50 years in the making. If you read Will's autobiography then you understand that his whole persona as the nice funny guy was bred out his regret and inability to protect his mother from his abusive father. It is a reoccurring theme in his book. I think Will desperately wants to shed this good guy image because it reminds him of his greatest failure. Slapping Chris was about not repeating the mistakes of his past which was not protecting the woman he loves.
I don't agree with him hitting him at all and Chris shouldn't have said that. But damn Chris Rock is a major professional. 😂👍 Update: I changed my opinion. Chris said nothing really wrong. GI Jane is gorgeous lol Jada needs to chill and so does her boy.
Chris Rock is a comedian. So now, Will can't take a joke? Did you slap the world for saying things about your wife, when she cheated on you with a young guy that yall brought into your family??
@@beemonique8466 they both have been swinging throughout their marriage. Will has a side piece named Heidi De La Rosa. They’ve been seeing each other longer than August & Jada.
I wish Will would have made this a teaching moment that everyone could have benefited from and given Chris the opportunity to formally apologize to Jada.
Its the wherever whenever mentality for me like my grandmother use to say "wherever u act up at is where imma whoop yo ass at" Will must've had a "Big Mama" 😂😂😂
LMFAOOOO I’m trying to see where Will went wrong? How else he could’ve handled it? In all seriousness, Will turned a “cancel culture” moment into an entertaining one
Her reaction set it off. Anyway #TeamWill. Some people will judo kick their kids/significant other for looking at them wrong - on here talm bout right and wrong.
I didn’t even realize Will Packer produced the Oscar’s this year. Congratulations 🎉 to Will Packer. Great representation for thee Florida A & M University 🧡💚
I think in the moment Will laughed because he was thinking, I can’t believe this dude is doing this in this moment, especially after you dragged us in 2016 because we boycotted the Oscars. Everyone is saying it wasn’t the right time, but when we are forced in certain spaces mentally, physically and emotionally you don’t get to decide how the offended should react or respond.
He was laughing til he saw Jada was mad. True you don't get to get to tell someone how to respond but that wasn't the time or place. Slap him at the after party or something.
Hey Q, I'm a woman that suffers from alopecia. I consider myself to be a confident woman however going through this has had me to cry many times to my husband because it is something beyond my repair, alopecia is not curable and is genetic which means I may have passed this along to my daughter which breaks my heart. I have a sensitivity to this matter and I'm able to understand why Will whom everyone can agree is a man of integrity responded that way. I truly believe he had an unfortunate moment that he should be given grace for having.
Not everyone knows about Jada’s hair loss( I sure didn’t) so the joke was mild in that context. Will could have addressed Chris during the break and asked for a public apology. That would have been the better way to handle this. Now Will’s win will be tainted by his assault.
@@CoCoFantastique sweetheart that wasn't the point, sheesh read for comprehension. It's a well known fact they're not cool, where I'm from you don't make jokes about folks that don't rock with you infront if them cuz u will get slapped. Which is exactly wat happened.
Will took away from his win and everyone else’s… The only thing he had to do and take his brother to the side and talk … Chris Rock took the high road ….
My thoughts exactly!! As Denzel and Tyler were comforting Will, who checked on Chris?! The fact that he was able maintain his composure and continue is amazing. I understand Will was defending his wife and may have been fed up with the chatter, but that whole situation was a lot. And that part about the after party!!! As I read about the incident last night, I was like he couldn’t wait until later to address this?!?
My husband and I discussed this while it was happening, and we are both in agreement that this is a culmination of events. I am sure that Chris tested the joke many times and probably told it many times in small circles before he decided to take it onto the world stage at the Oscars. The Smiths and Chris Rock have never quite been friends, and Chris has a sort of grimy sense of humor, too. Anyway, most slaps are a long time coming - they don't just happen as isolated incidents by people who lose their composure, and Will certainly kept his composure while giving Chris something he earned. Chris wasn't even hosting the Oscars, just giving an award.
As someone who had no idea about Jada’s condition…I took the joke as a pun that Jada can play GI Jane because her hair is cut low and she is super fit. Again Chris Rock said nothing about alopecia he called her GI Jane which was a role in a movie which was a female officer trying to become the first woman navy seal in a movie. In addition comedians also roast the audience so now is it okay if someone doesn’t like what a comedian says they go on stage.I like them to try it with those 85 South men, it would have been a different outcome.
As far as I know, she admitted to the diagnosis being stress alopecia (which is what I had for 4 years). STRESS alopecia is considered a symptom of stress but not an actual disease. It can be reversed through therapy, change in diet and change of environment. As a teenager you get acute acne from stress, adults suffer REVERSIBLE hair loss
I haven't read Will's book but am gonna say this. A coward isn't someone who sat back and did nothing when they should have. A coward can also be someone who misplaces his or her actions because they can't face the real thing. That is all i have to say. So sad
Right. I remember a interview Jada did on the Oprah Show. She was saying how she didn't need a man for nothing. I do feel she is the strongest person in the relationship. She molded Will. He is holding in a lot. On the other hand it could be something else. That most people do not want to have that conversation. We just gone play our part.
@@sweetee81 I still think in Will's mind, especially after that delayed response in laughing either nervously or because HE did take it as a joke, then saw that Jada didn't, he thinks stepping to Rock as he did, was in fact not being a coward. I think he still has a long way to go defining cowardice for himself. I hope he is on his way to doing so. As for Rock, I think when he said "Jada" as in really called her name, specifically, and when you watch the 2016 awards, it comes off as if it is a "targeted" or personal joke, and that's something Chris has to figure out. Only he knows if he just wanted to get at Jada a lot, or if he really just meant to spread jokes in a very general way, and just happened upon her, in the front rows of this Oscars. I don't say this, to say Rock deserved ANYTHING like what happened AT ALL. I say this to say as I have been saying, about comedians. The way that you can try some jokes in this type of venue (OSCARS) vs your own comedy show (SPECIAL) can be different WAYS and I think Rock and comedians need to really understand that. It's an extra GIG, so just take it as that, and reserve all the insensitive jokes, dark humor, etcfor YOUR OWN SPECIALS. There's a different level of event there vs Black Tie, and a different "space" too. Comedians can do A LOT, to really make sure you aren't alienating their audience. They gotta remember their audience at all times, and TAILOR the jokes, accordingly. If by chance the person you are even thinking of cracking a joke isn't a joking person, BYPASS them. It isn't worth the issues that come with that person who you were going to LAND a joke on. The joke he told in 2016, included Rihanna and her panties, did she mind? Who knows. She hasn't come off nearly as stoic as Jada has about these things though. Asap Ferg referenced her in a song, Rihanna hasn't said anything, it's like there are some people that make their reactions EXPENSIVE and those who don't. Jada's reactions are cheap, she's shown she's easily agitated, throws her weight around as the celeb she is in different situations, and even as the long lost love of Tupac. It is enough as a seasoned comedian to BYPASS her ass, and make light and humor with OTHER spirits in the room. I just wish he had.
Everybody has a moment when they've had to get out of character. Will's happened last night, in front of millions of people. We can criticize or agree, but he's human.
@@dcc-randomstorieswithmel7424 I hope you have that same energy when someone disrespects your partner or loved one in front of millions of ppl, their potential business partners and their peers. Some times you have to get out of character teach ppl how to treat you.
Will did what he felt was right in the moment and I don't look at him any different... Ppl really need to remember; you're free to do and say anything you please but you'll NEVER be free of the consequences from your actions.
Oh and I feel bad for Chris because that "Slap" looked painful. I was surprised Jada didn't stop Will when she saw him getting up out of his seat!!!!! 😳 Because I was going to tell him to stand down. Because ain't no body was going to further escalate it to the point of ruining the more important moment of my husband being nominated for best actor in a film. #justsaying
This is why I love you Funky. You take emotion out of it and use logic and common sense to do your reviews. You practically said word for word what I’ve been saying. The joke was in poor taste (as a million other jokes) but Will was dead wrong and his ass should have been thrown out lol.
@@tenneildoe3674 exactly, had that been a lesser known actor who was not as powerful, they would have thrown him out right then and there. Will has a lot of powerful people backing him and he used that to his advantage.
@@dickersonr6172 I never disputed that lol. He was laughing. He only changed his tune once he seen Jada’s face. Had she laughed as well this would have never happened.
Baybeh, we was waiting for you at the doh to talk about this!! Chile, I thought this was staged, but the awards speech Will have made me realize that he must’ve actually not been with the shits that night. God bless him and whatever he’s going through
Comedians are going to joke. That’s it that’s the statement. To get up there and embarrass a grown man over a joke that you laughed at is dumb. Why would Chris fight back if he was technically at work? Will looked like a big fool slapping ppl over a woman who keep embarrassing him.
Chris Rock should have said, "I guess everything is open in Will's marriage except for jokes!" Jokes aside. I was sad. At the end of the day, one of my childhood heroes, Will Smith, laid his hands on another person. He literally physically assaulted someone. If that had been myself, I would have been escorted by security and then arrested for assault. Then, his speech had almost nothing to do with WHY he won his Oscar and almost entirely to do with a personal existential crisis he's going through that also reflected delusions of grandeur when mentioned "God" and the "devil". ..... .... It was just rough to see.
That’s what I was saying. He was yelling at the whole industry. That man and that crying meme done sat up here on rent free on the internet for two years on the. He had to do something.
Will is STILL alright with me! Enough is enough. Chris is like the town bully and last night we found out he has no bite! Chris is lucky and I'm surprised no one had done it sooner.
@@leslieburgess6985 At the end of the day WHO is August?! Nobody cares about him LOL. He came and WENT. Chris on the other hand has an actual career and has been verbally jabbing at the Smiths for YEARS. That c**n went OFF script to especially get at Jada. Why? Also, why are people caring about who's been in Will & Jada's bed?! They don't owe anybody an explanation especially when most people talking are getting cheated on right now and don't even know it, broke asses are straight up in 1 sided open relationships lol and/or miserably ALONE. Next.
I have never felt that "Roasting" someone is Comedy. It's tearing someone down, point blank period! Words have Power, Violence is never Good, You just never know where a person is mentally and there is so much a person can Handle at times. So, If anyone wants to come out the Mouth unfavorably, and you want to use Comedy as a justification to tear someone down, then, handle and take the Punch just like you gave it.
Yup - there is a time and place for everything and Chris wasn't even hosting this year, he was just presenting an award. He didn't even have to tell no jokes, just wave and smile and present an award. He earned that one, and I am sure that it was a long time coming.
Yes! AND right before making fun of Jada, his joke about Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz was uplifting and complimentary. All these folks talking about the optics can eat a couple of dycks. That was one of the realest things I have seen in a minute and Will gave us insight into where he was coming from. The Oscars gave Will that full 5 minutes to him to say his piece. The "there's never a reason for xyz" people need to sit down.
After reading Will Smith's book and him saying that hes always been a coward (Childhood Trauma) speaks volumes... he watched his mom get beat by his dad and he never tried to help his mom...he just stood there and watched in silence... so I'm sure he will not let anyone humiliate his wife as an adult. Also I feel Chris isn't a "threat " he was doing his job..he was at work..working the Oscars....I can't see Will smacking 50 Cent, Dr Dre, or Suge Knight..lol just to name a few. When Will smacked Chris it really was a message for Laverne... unfortunately Chris was the last straw... I feel the joke was in poor taste but typically Noone is off limits when it come to comedy. I feel bad for all parties ..the damage is done but hope they can have some sort of resolve. The Smiths are just over it ...
If the Smith's are over it then the Smiths need to stay from around that red table. When we air our laundry (be it dirty or clean) on social media, we then open our experience up to public scrutiny. The moral of this story is keep your business off dem people's social media if you don't want to deal with the backlash. Is that not what we tell kids and young adults???🤔
They shouldn't be. The put their business on front street. Jada stay disrespecting Will. Talking about Tupac. She doing poems about Tupac. Will did and STILL DON'T DO nothing.. August put penis in his Jada mouth in his house in his bed and he has been ducking and dodging August Alsina. August exposed they fake in love marriage. Will Smith is a puppet and Jada is a puppeteer. She going to continue to emasculate him. They just need to divorce and move on.
I feel badly for all parties involved. 1. Jada because her serious autoimmune condition was the butt of a joke told on live tv in front of 52 million people. Words hurt. 2. Will because he got physical instead of using his words on live tv in front of 52 million people on the night he won an award. His first Oscar win is now forever tarnished by his poor choice...could have talked with or slapped Chris backstage after the win. 3. Chris because that had to hurt and he had to play it off and keep going. Security did not help him at all and Will got a standing ovation for his win/slap. The joke was in VERY poor taste, hurtful, and just wrong. Getting assaulted for it on live tv in front of 52 million people was not ok. I feel badly that on a historical night for black people in the arts, violence took centerstage... it's what many have come to expect from us. I hate that Will played into that narrative. Schools across America hold Oscar's nights. Not a good example for them. It was just not good all the way around...
What was security supposed to do? Will slapped him, turned and walked away and sat down. Will is not some random ass person so security is not just going to run on stage cause Will walked up there. Also like many of us at home, I don’t think security thought it was serious until Will started cussing from his seat. By then Chris obliged and moved on with the show.
@@kristintee6808 True. It caught everyone off guard. Maybe once he arrived back at his seat they could have escorted him out to at least tallked to him about staying in his seat and not yelling profanity on live tv?
Will could have waited to accept the award, At that time he could have shared his feelings in a appropriate manner. Words speak Volumes!! 2nd. What made Will think he was above anyone to WALK ON STAGE ans Slap another Black Man. Theres the Media opportunity to say. The Black community cry to be Nominated and Win! Then show this is their behavior.
I think it was, people confuse society demands with human nature - He did what needed to be done and is ready to be accountable to whatever consequences come with that.
@@gaffle-411 I wish he had that energy for him but the nuance is I can fight my family all I want but you disrespecting me as a man or hurting my family crosses the line. Apparently he approved of the AA situation which to me was disrespectful as a man but it was agreed upon as a family. I know its messy his frustration with that situation was the fallout of people punking and disrespecting him. Will can care less about the oscars or getting hired for another movie he can fund and has the network to create movies he is interested it - You saw after the incident Tyler Perry and Denzel willing to show public support as well ad Diddy the business is covered. I think the Laverne Cox situation pushed it over and enough was enough and this was a great situation to act out
@@gaffle-411 yeah and it is what it is - to me the problem is Jada and he should have left her a long time ago but regardless he is still fighting to be the "only man she needs"
Even though I think Will could have handled it differently; I do understand that there’s just so much a person can take. I think Will is fed up with the jokes & disrespect towards his wife and his marriage.
Will and Jada are the ones who chose to share too much information about their strange marriage, beliefs, and affairs/entanglements. No one asked and no one demanded their story.
@@millana100 Actually, August Alsina was the one who shared the information and they were left with no choice but to address it. Now, Jada has shared the reason why she’s bald headed so to make a joke about her illness which is something she can’t control was insensitive and wrong on Chris part.
This slap has brought on a lot of deep conversations today. I like how you broke it down and I totally agree with you. None us would have ever expected this from Will. You never know what may be a ‘trigger’ for others, but this clearly was!!
@@GoodyGoody534 he wouldn't have done Kat Williams, of this I'm sure. Mix in his short stature, and the whole Napoleon complex would have had some mortal combat ish going on
@@GoodyGoody534 Dave I don't know. Dave seems like some kinda mental whisperer or something, he seems to diffuse anywhere he "goes" among Black men... He flew to see Kanye in Wyoming.. The Rick James story that timed right before he died so he could enjoy a career revival, Prince, etc...You know, he just knows his way around Black men
That’s why we should be so mindful of our words sometimes. Words can be violent too. As the housewives always say, you cannot control how someone reacts to your actions. Both are wrong
Well it wasn't the joke that triggered him. He was laughing along w everyone else while Jada rolled her eyes. I'm sure it was HER reaction that caused Will to get up & do that dumb shit.
Why do I keep hearing “ will was protecting his wife “ ?…. From what she was never in danger ! He was showing off! It was a joke not a insult ! And……. It was not two people getting physical it was one out of control punk ! He handled that situation like a b?&$h
ABSOLUTELY! Chris never threatened her with that joke. Her life was not in danger. Protecting a public figure from ridicule is like trying to protect a tiger from a fight with another tiger. It's par for the course. Will was wrong all day long for his actions. You don't get to walk up to ANYBODY, slab them, walk back to your seat adjusting your suit and tie AND sit down and TALK ish. I will never agree with assault, regardless of what words were spoken.
I applaud Chris for keeping his cool. No one checked on him: no security, no medic, producers, etc. He remained calm and professional. Then Will got a standing ovation and got jiggy with it at an after party. Just wrong. 🙄
I applaud Chris too. Security and everyone would’ve had to checked, because the Oscars would’ve became The Thrilla in Manila part two if someone slapped me let alone in front of the world.
@@lareewilson3199 I hope Eddie Murphy did check on him. He should not have gone to any party and went home to sulk for destroying an evening. What a selfish fool.
I don’t even say the “N” word around White ppl, let alone get to fighting in front of them. That was tacky & uncalled for. Because where was all that energy on the Red Table when she was telling all y’all business. Chile …. He got some nerve
@Serenity Hansberry well then fat folks shouldn't be made fun of due their medical condition and folks need to stop making blind jokes about Stevie wonder.
My husband watched & said...."Yea, I get it! I may have waited, but I definitely would have put hands on him for disrespecting my wife!" I feel the same way. So if I'm ghetto for feeling that way, well G.H.E.T.T.O is what I'll be!👑
If you watch Will when Chris is telling the joke he is clearly laughing so I think when he turns and looks at Jada's reaction he realizes, oh snap I shouldn't be laughing because she's not amused, which prompted him to over compensate in his reaction in my opinion
TRUE TRUE because if its not funny to her then its not funny to him he is so trapped with someone that has boss him all their married life. He clearly laugh and it was loud but she gave the side eye and he knew he would get slapped if he didn't do something right then, Will is a punk for what he did .
My heart aches for Chris Rock. He’s had some questionable moments but nobody deserves that. Assault aside, he was humiliated. This insult is solidified, not only was it broadcasted - it will be a stain. Also, disheartened that a lot of people embraced Will Smith for this. Unacceptable. Nobody’s responsible for your triggers. Show some restraint and communicate.
Not arguing or attacking, but I genuinely want to know: you've shown restraint your entire life? When it came to any & everything? You've never had a breaking point?
Plus dude literally explained that he just doesn't get social cues as... you know... a neurodivergent person ? But dealing with it is tricky, especially when your job is to use that for jokes
@@mr.quacadile683 We all have but mistakes don’t absolve you from the responsibility of your wrongdoings & the consequences. Wrong is wrong, no matter the circumstance.
It didn’t overshadow the night for me. I absolutely enjoyed this year’s Oscars. I watch usually every year. Will Packard did his thing. Wanda Sykes, Regina Hall and Amy were great hosts. The music was great. It was well produced. I don’t condone Will’s reaction but as you say, “you cant talk bad about a mfer and tell them how mad to get.” We really dont know Jada’s situation. She says it’s alopecia but it could be a terminal illness. Had Chris stuck to the teleprompter, we wouldn’t have today’s news.
The joke was on the teleprompter that slap wasn’t about no alopecia and we can’t assume Chris knew about no Alopecia that slap was deeper then that will is tired of being embarrassed and the butt of the joke behind his wife it has been a rough 2 years for Will since that entanglement mess he misplaced his anger you can tell by the way he was crying after he did what he did he should have spoke to Chris after the show not assaulted him cause that was clearly assault was Will gonna slap Regina for her joke??? Was he gonna slap Gayle for asking abt infidelity what about Lavern Cox he was outta line and The Slap definitely overshadowed the night and his Oscar win wasn’t trending it was The Slap and Assault and Thank God Chris DIDNT press charges on Will cause he could have Will was outta line 🤷🏽♀️
@@aylangston79 that’s why I’m telling people he knew about the joke he laughed himself then he stopped laughing if Will didn’t want him to speak about that he should have told him during rehearsals my wife suffers from alopecia please remove that part and it was done
Bitch looka here and hear me good. I felt that in my spirit. I wish we could all be our best selves when we are at our worst but that ain't realistic. Will slapped the piss out of him and I understand. Sometimes you just snap.
The way he protected his wife let’s you know that her pain is deeper and he knows what she deals with behind the scenes. I don’t condone violence but I appreciated seeing a man love and take up for his wife openly.
Thank you. She was in so much emotional pain about it that her daughter shaved her head in solidarity. It’s deep for their family. He did as he should.
Nah... after yall do a show and book tour on your marriage now you want to protect her nah fam, protect black woman at what cost.. the cost of possibly looking like a fool on a white platform
I think Will laughed at first cause he's polite. But when he looked over and saw his wife's face he walked up there and smacked the dog 💩 outta him. For disrespecting her. I think he had an epic night.
@@eurekaleeper161 Why would he need to have that same energy with August? Did yall miss when Will admitted he told Jada to go find happiness elsewhere and they both had rumors of having an open marriage? You don't go on vacations with your wife's boyfriend and get mad. Will himself was spotted with a lot of his costars with rumors of an alleged relationship as well. "Bad marriage for life"?!?

Had Chris fought back, the show would’ve been over. He handled it better than most of us, and with that amount of control I applaud him.
Facts
As he should because he had it coming
chris rock should have beat will ass or at least tried!
Insane amt of control. I think his disability that he said he discovered, that he doesn't pick up non verbal is what contributed to the situation happening/ unfolding the way it did.
He wasn't able to pickup on Will's demeanor or his approach towards him, that it was aggressive and was going to result in battery, albeit slap or punch. His disability wouldn't have allowed him to, so he stood there not anticipating aggression, and actually smiled, right up until receiving the slap.
His disability ended up being what saved the "show." Had he been ANY of us, without the disability, he may have had WAY more knee jerk reaction and everyone woulda been Kung-Fu fighting. He literally had this disability serve him in self-control, in the seconds that someone w/o his condition would've just been ready to retaliate, on or off camera. It really was something ELSE.
@@wordlifefactory1656 It wasn't a disability. He misjudged Will and gave him credit for having the common sense not to do something stupid in front of the whole world. Will considered Chris weak and would not have done that to any almost any other comedian because they would have been scrapping right there on stage, which would have been a worse spectacle!
Can we agree Chris Rock showed amazing self control and poise as he quickly brushed it off and continued with the Oscars.
💯
Will knows who he could and couldn’t do that to
@@sudukemsn Chris was in shock. If he would have punched him back we wouldn't be having this conversation
Can we say Chris ain’t no fool. When you look at him in the moment, he gave respect to Will like a child to a man. Ailing people should be off limits. It’s improper to get on the largest stage in the world and demean a man’s ailing wife. You don’t get to choose the consequences.
or he can't fight
Will went from laughing, slapping then crying. He should get an Oscar for his performance
Agreed!
And some hormone pills to boot.
This is the same thing I said!! He def has something going on.
Well he did get an Oscar 😂🤣😂
For REAL, he did show RANGE. You are right. No lies told...
I'm with you when it comes to people checking on Chris. That was embarrassing. He didn't deserve that and having to continue the show afterwards had to be hard. I hope he's OK.
Chris and the Oscars incited this mess, not Jada and Will
Rock was backstage afterwards so I’m hoping we just didn’t see it. We saw Will being talked to because he was sitting front row. I’m sure Rock was checked on.
@@beatrue9894 and nobody on that writing team can tell me they hadn’t heard about Jada saying she has alopecia! They just didn’t gaf. Now they’re saying they asked Will to leave but he refused. Yet when he won they let him talk for what seemed like forever instead of cutting him off like they do everybody else. It ain’t adding up to me!
@@aj25055 exactly, they disrespected Will and Jada with the marriage joke and then her appearance and used Regina Hall and Chris Rock to do it, there are women with cancer and other diseases that loose their hair, it was hurtful to her
I’m glad he got embarrassed now he knows how it feels 💁🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
When a man slap another man it means he doesn’t respect that man, it’s actually worse than a punch.
My husband has said, he'd rather get punched instead of slapped
@@azteca6695 I agree because of the disrespect from another man
Agree
Totally agree. He knew what he was doin when he slapped him, he meant to do that.
I just said this to my brother! He meant that slap
"Sticks and Stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"- the biggest lie
words definitely hurts
💯💯, wouldn’t it be considered emotional abuse
Biggest lie ever
The biggest! And you could see the hurt on her face
Why is it when your now tired of ppl, it comes down to a mental health issue? Its life, we are not perfect.
At first I thought it was a skit until I saw how enraged Will was.
Reminds me of Kanye’s stage interruption.
It was other people's reactions like Lupita, who was behind him that made me realize that it probably wasn't a skit
@@brandnushooze No it doesn’t🤨
Me too!
Me too. I was like 😱🤭 oop
The Smiths have been getting a lot of heat recently in the media and there’s a thousand ppl that Will should’ve slapped waaaaaaay before Chris.
August Alsina maybe? 🤔
Yeah but they love the drama. They loooove looking so great and open but all I see is wrecks
My friend said the smartest thing I’ve heard all morning. “Nobody will remember Will for finally winning his Oscar. They’ll only remember the slap.” Sad. But I can’t be concerned with those rich ass ppl and their “problems.”
That part
They’ll remember both..
I said no one will remember the joke. No one will remember the win, but they'll remember the slap.
All of this!
@@prettyacct I didn’t even realize that he had won an Oscar.
Lupita's face was Everything❕😸
She's so gorgeous too lol
She looked soo beautiful.
I saw that, too! I was looking at her trying to figure out if I should laugh at the “skit” or whether this was real!
Yeass hunnnyyy😭
That was the face of every blacks person at home. Her fight or flight was deciding whether to kick in or Kiki 😂
I agree with you 100%. The man is entitled to feel the way he felt. Could he have chosen a better way to handle it, yes. I just hate he tarnished his long overdue Oscar win and Will Packer’s honor.
My thoughts exactly
I agree
All of this 💯%
💯
Will and Jada are narcissists. When Will didn't get nominated, Jada felt like he DESERVED it and tried to boycott the Oscars. Then when they do finally show up again, Will shows his ass!! I'm from Philly and I can say that I have liked Will but I don't necessarily think he's the absolute BEST!! Jada's condition is not terminal like cancer, so Will was completely in the wrong and he needs to apologize to Chris bc Chris just only does his job. OH, AND WILL LAUGHED TOO, JS!!
Unless it's life threatening, I would never put a man I love in a position that can risk his life, his freedom and his integrity to protect me from a joke. That's not love and defending each other's well being.
this part. cause in real life somebody gonna get sprayed for hitting someone over some bs comment
Yes, it's not like he was in her face.
Agreed. Jada has a lot of responsibility in this too.
Chris took the slap 👋 like a G and that’s on PERIODTTTT
This is true too!!!
Yes he did girl because that could not be me. I would of slapped Will back. He didn't punch or beat August's ass for sleeping with his wife. But he's going to slap lil Chris Rock for a joke he told that even he laughed at about his wife. The joke wasn't even bad. Tbh the last time I checked I thought Jada was boycotting the Oscars. Will needs to leave her ass. She's bad news.
Imagine being slapped for doing your job
He did tho, n tried to awkwardly go on. The fact is will knew who to slap. Bc he ain’t try not any of the thousands of folks going in & harder on jada.
He really did. And came right back with the live commentary: *Will Smith just slapped the $hit out of me* 😜
I believe Will would have let the joke slide if Jada found it funny. You can see the Jada was clearly upset about the joke he made and that triggered Will. I just hate Will didn't wait till the afterparty to slap him.
Simp slap!
You actually think Chris is 'hanging out' after these shows lol?! I vote NO. Besides after DECADES of insulting people including celebs primarily Black women I get the impression, he is not well liked.
@@RememberTheTime09 Well i dont know about all that, but i just hate it happened at that setting
Will wasn’t laughing because he thought it was funny , that was nervous laugh imma get you .
And the way the audience laughed and cheered at the joke about jada boycotting the oscars which she’s not invited to told me a lot of ppl in that room didn’t like her or her boycott. Jada is an easy target for him.
I’m never gonna shame a man for defending their wife…but I would’ve done it after the show 💀
But that just shows how fed up he is. This not Chris Rock first Jada joke at the Oscar's. Then to joke about her hair when it's falling out and she been talking about that for months now trying to cope with Alopecia and that's what he jokes about? My hair is falling out and I do declare its a tough journey for a women. They been getting joked about by celebrities in their faces....enough is enough!
That’s premeditated
Time and Place!
@@CoCoFantastique 💯. I said the same.
What was he defending her against words? Black folks are weird words are not weapons.
I never cared too much for Chris Rock but Will was dead wrong in this instance. I feel sorry for Chris' family, his 2 daughters in particular, who had to watch their dad get assaulted on national tv and now relive it everyday due to the ridicule and headlines. On another note, Will def knows who he can and CANT do that to!!!
They need The Rock (Ballers and Jumanji actor) to host the awards. I bet that ends this Ish once and for all.

But he was laughing too
@@kadobi189 Right
I think it was nervous fake laughter, probably been doing that for a while.
Exactly will did right
And now he's going to be further be the butt of jokes because he over reacted to a joke he thought was funny. He was laughing along until he saw Jada's eye roll.
I was shocked they didn’t escort him out. 😂 I was sure they were gonna ask Will and Jada to leave - then he won! What a memorable night in more ways than one for Will.
I was shocked too, especially for Chris' own safety and pure sense of comfort.
I was think the same things.....

I love Will, I love Chris. I can't defend or justify Will's action. Chris was making jokes same as any other host on any other award show. Don't matter the reason I can't agree with Will's action.
Exactly. These shows...of you are in attendance or nominated, you know you will be or could be the butt of some jokes or roasted. That's just how this goes. Jada is not off limits. Will is not off limits. He was seen to be laughing at first so I am genuinely confused.
Exactly
I can get behind the reason behind the emotion of how the joke made Jada feel, therefore how it made him feel....BUT like he said, his actions was uncalled for and that shouldve been better executed. I wishes she would have stood up (even if she didnt feel like it) and owned the comment and let it be known that it is okay and she was still beautiful because she is.

That joke was his breaking point, he’s tired of people clowning him about his wife.
HIS OWN WIFE has publicly clowned him many times and in THE absolute worse ways (AA/2Pac). She's emasculated him.
True
His wife getting D-DOWN by August alsina should have been the breaking point
Comedians do not have a free pass on mean spirited “jokes” born from their own trauma or insecurities. Chris did this to Jada in 2016 when he hosted the Oscars.
But his wife put all their business out there 🤷🏽♀️
Will could have addressed this with Chris backstage. This was uncalled for and unacceptable.
💯💯💯
No. He PUBLICLY disrespected and humiliated that man's wife, so he got the same energy. Public embarassment right back.
He had no choice. Jada would have called Will a punk ass Nigga if he didn't do anything.
That slap was for anybody and everybody that he and his loved ones ever felt disrespected by.
Just.. oh my damn.
Simp slap!
Yes....they are humans too damn
ABSOLUTELY
agreed.
Agreed
That was wrong of Will. Like my sister said "Will would not have done that to Kevin Hart or Kanye, or that would have been a real fight."
People seem to forget that… Will is from Philly and Jada is from Baltimore. As a fellow alopecia warrior, my hair falls out and (sometimes) regrows back in cycles, I often find myself cutting my hair, shaving a lot of areas. I commend Will for standing up for his wife.
I am also surprised that Chris made this joke, with how vocal Jada has been about her alopecia journey and how sensitive she is about experiencing it, coupled with Chris Rock doing the documentary “Good Hair” a few years ago to encourage his own daughters about embracing their own hair
👏🏿
Exactly.
Don't underestimate Chris. That's Brooklyn right there.
@@kerrajohnson3203 you’re right! Chris exhibited a LOT of restraint!

lmao !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok !!!
That slap goes deeper than last night’s joke! You can’t tell me that’s the ONLY time his wife has been disrespected. So either there is a deep rooted history between them ORRRR Jada is actually dealing with a health issue that is more serious than Alopecia and the family is very sensitive to that right now
Chris made a joke that was a low blow the last time he hosted the oscars so that's what I think its deeper.
And will wasn't there to respond last time.
I agree. I saw it on Jadas face last night that she already knew a joke was coming and her reaction to me shows it wasn’t the first or second time. I think Will said this is the last time though 🤣
@blk coverboy I totally agree with your assessment and I believe it's both. At the end of the day these folks are people too! They hurt, they bleed, and they have feelings.
Agreed
I can give it to Chris Rock, because I think he should have slapped Will Smith clean off that stage ‼️
Might’ve been nice, but glad he didn’t because they would’ve really demonized. Now he gets to be a good guy and he will be vindicated in the future.
When Will slapped him, all I heard in my head was, "then a couple of guys were up to no good, starting making trouble in my neighborhood" 🤣😂🤣🤣🤣

He's probably mentally tired
I agree with you . This is deeper than the pain of he and his wife , he’s going through it and seem to be searching God for answers . My prayers to him that he truly finds peace with the Lord… because Fame and Fortune isn’t doing it !!!! And it never will 🙏🏽🤗🙏🏽❤️

Thank you for looking at this from all angles. As humans we sometimes try to make things so black and white. Life is simply not so. Will's action was out of pocket, yet it doesn't end there. The consequences of his actions started last night and will continue. On the flip side, he felt the need to defend his wife's honor at the whatever costs. In other news, Chris Rock deserved an Oscar for his performance and ability to stay in character. He's got material for the rest of his career.

Facts!
I guess this was predicted back in 1999...th-cam.com/video/YNVtCNDePz4/w-d-xo.html
this commentary was so well said. Every single part was my sentiment ls exactly
That slap was 50 years in the making. If you read Will's autobiography then you understand that his whole persona as the nice funny guy was bred out his regret and inability to protect his mother from his abusive father. It is a reoccurring theme in his book. I think Will desperately wants to shed this good guy image because it reminds him of his greatest failure. Slapping Chris was about not repeating the mistakes of his past which was not protecting the woman he loves.
Woah
I haven’t read the book…great insight
That was deep🤔😢
This is so true!! I read his book and this was my 1st thought as well.
You can only push a nice person so far🤷🏾♀️ anybody can catch hands🤣
Will Smith done FUCKED UP THE THANG! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't agree with him hitting him at all and Chris shouldn't have said that. But damn Chris Rock is a major professional. 😂👍
Update: I changed my opinion. Chris said nothing really wrong. GI Jane is gorgeous lol Jada needs to chill and so does her boy.
Indeed, because you know what most would have done.
I agree, I felt bad for both men. It was awful…
Imagine if Chris would of hit him back? 😳 Chile…. Chris really kept his composure but I guarantee u that if Chris was white, 😳 hunny.
Chris Rock is a comedian. So now, Will can't take a joke? Did you slap the world for saying things about your wife, when she cheated on you with a young guy that yall brought into your family??
@@beemonique8466 they both have been swinging throughout their marriage. Will has a side piece named Heidi De La Rosa. They’ve been seeing each other longer than August & Jada.

Diva, your Commentary was on point.
I think in the moment Will laughed because he was thinking, I can’t believe this dude is doing this in this moment, especially after you dragged us in 2016 because we boycotted the Oscars. Everyone is saying it wasn’t the right time, but when we are forced in certain spaces mentally, physically and emotionally you don’t get to decide how the offended should react or respond.
Bingo 🎯.First comment about the laugh that has it absolutely right.
Yes sometimes you laugh when you pissed off and thinking of your next move.
I hope the two ot them can come together to resolve and hash it out. I just hate seeing what happen last night.
He was laughing til he saw Jada was mad. True you don't get to get to tell someone how to respond but that wasn't the time or place. Slap him at the after party or something.
Exactly that laugh was not in finding the joke funny, it was he has no idea I'd smack a mf
Hey Q, I'm a woman that suffers from alopecia. I consider myself to be a confident woman however going through this has had me to cry many times to my husband because it is something beyond my repair, alopecia is not curable and is genetic which means I may have passed this along to my daughter which breaks my heart. I have a sensitivity to this matter and I'm able to understand why Will whom everyone can agree is a man of integrity responded that way. I truly believe he had an unfortunate moment that he should be given grace for having.
Not everyone knows about Jada’s hair loss( I sure didn’t) so the joke was mild in that context. Will could have addressed Chris during the break and asked for a public apology. That would have been the better way to handle this. Now Will’s win will be tainted by his assault.
I had no idea she had Alopecia.
Chris know darn well he and the smiths are not cool and he wasn't the host so I'm wondering if he took the moment to take a personal jab
@@Summerbeeuty there were jokes about Denzel and others before the Jada joke..
@@CoCoFantastique sweetheart that wasn't the point, sheesh read for comprehension. It's a well known fact they're not cool, where I'm from you don't make jokes about folks that don't rock with you infront if them cuz u will get slapped. Which is exactly wat happened.
I totally agree with you
Will took away from his win and everyone else’s… The only thing he had to do and take his brother to the side and talk … Chris Rock took the high road ….
My thoughts exactly!! As Denzel and Tyler were comforting Will, who checked on Chris?! The fact that he was able maintain his composure and continue is amazing. I understand Will was defending his wife and may have been fed up with the chatter, but that whole situation was a lot. And that part about the after party!!! As I read about the incident last night, I was like he couldn’t wait until later to address this?!?
I felt like Chris wanted to say something but stopped himself after. 😭
💯💯💯💯 he didn’t slap that 20yr old for being in his house screwing his wife tho.😂😂😂😂
Exactly!!!!
@@sabrinasolomon6387 lol ok!
My husband and I discussed this while it was happening, and we are both in agreement that this is a culmination of events. I am sure that Chris tested the joke many times and probably told it many times in small circles before he decided to take it onto the world stage at the Oscars. The Smiths and Chris Rock have never quite been friends, and Chris has a sort of grimy sense of humor, too. Anyway, most slaps are a long time coming - they don't just happen as isolated incidents by people who lose their composure, and Will certainly kept his composure while giving Chris something he earned. Chris wasn't even hosting the Oscars, just giving an award.
As someone who had no idea about Jada’s condition…I took the joke as a pun that Jada can play GI Jane because her hair is cut low and she is super fit. Again Chris Rock said nothing about alopecia he called her GI Jane which was a role in a movie which was a female officer trying to become the first woman navy seal in a movie. In addition comedians also roast the audience so now is it okay if someone doesn’t like what a comedian says they go on stage.I like them to try it with those 85 South men, it would have been a different outcome.
And she had on green! I don't think Chris knew frfr
He knew...
@@icefairy514 How do you know he knew? HE said he didn’t know. So are you Jada or Will and told him personally?
As far as I know, she admitted to the diagnosis being stress alopecia (which is what I had for 4 years).
STRESS alopecia is considered a symptom of stress but not an actual disease. It can be reversed through therapy, change in diet and change of environment.
As a teenager you get acute acne from stress, adults suffer REVERSIBLE hair loss
Exactly!
I agree with you when you said, “there’s so many moving parts.” And that makes it hard to just look at the situation one way. Much love ❤️
I haven't read Will's book but am gonna say this. A coward isn't someone who sat back and did nothing when they should have. A coward can also be someone who misplaces his or her actions because they can't face the real thing. That is all i have to say. So sad
Deep
Will is def a coward
You nailed it!!!!!❤❤❤❤💪🏾
Right. I remember a interview Jada did on the Oprah Show. She was saying how she didn't need a man for nothing. I do feel she is the strongest person in the relationship. She molded Will. He is holding in a lot. On the other hand it could be something else. That most people do not want to have that conversation. We just gone play our part.
@@sweetee81 I still think in Will's mind, especially after that delayed response in laughing either nervously or because HE did take it as a joke, then saw that Jada didn't, he thinks stepping to Rock as he did, was in fact not being a coward.
I think he still has a long way to go defining cowardice for himself. I hope he is on his way to doing so.
As for Rock, I think when he said "Jada" as in really called her name, specifically, and when you watch the 2016 awards, it comes off as if it is a "targeted" or personal joke, and that's something Chris has to figure out. Only he knows if he just wanted to get at Jada a lot, or if he really just meant to spread jokes in a very general way, and just happened upon her, in the front rows of this Oscars.
I don't say this, to say Rock deserved ANYTHING like what happened AT ALL. I say this to say as I have been saying, about comedians. The way that you can try some jokes in this type of venue (OSCARS) vs your own comedy show (SPECIAL) can be different WAYS and I think Rock and comedians need to really understand that. It's an extra GIG, so just take it as that, and reserve all the insensitive jokes, dark humor, etcfor YOUR OWN SPECIALS. There's a different level of event there vs Black Tie, and a different "space" too.
Comedians can do A LOT, to really make sure you aren't alienating their audience. They gotta remember their audience at all times, and TAILOR the jokes, accordingly.
If by chance the person you are even thinking of cracking a joke isn't a joking person, BYPASS them. It isn't worth the issues that come with that person who you were going to LAND a joke on. The joke he told in 2016, included Rihanna and her panties, did she mind? Who knows. She hasn't come off nearly as stoic as Jada has about these things though. Asap Ferg referenced her in a song, Rihanna hasn't said anything, it's like there are some people that make their reactions EXPENSIVE and those who don't.
Jada's reactions are cheap, she's shown she's easily agitated, throws her weight around as the celeb she is in different situations, and even as the long lost love of Tupac. It is enough as a seasoned comedian to BYPASS her ass, and make light and humor with OTHER spirits in the room. I just wish he had.
Everybody has a moment when they've had to get out of character. Will's happened last night, in front of millions of people. We can criticize or agree, but he's human.
💯
I hope you have the same energy if someone slaps you in front of people
@@dcc-randomstorieswithmel7424 I hope you have that same energy when someone disrespects your partner or loved one in front of millions of ppl, their potential business partners and their peers. Some times you have to get out of character teach ppl how to treat you.
@@BosTVProductions Take it upon yourself to "teach" and accept the consequences.
Billion people allegedly
Will did what he felt was right in the moment and I don't look at him any different... Ppl really need to remember; you're free to do and say anything you please but you'll NEVER be free of the consequences from your actions.
So would you have said the same had will receive consequence from his foolish reaction. Just asking based on your comment
Until it’s time to be fingerprinted and get that orange jumpsuit, THEN comes the consequential thinking? Oh okay 😂
@@Thecleaningmommy SPEAK ON IT!! 💯💪🏾
You sound like a damn fool, Will looked like a weak coward. I put money he wouldn't have done that to Jamie Foxx
FACTSSSSS!!!!
I'm suppose to be getting light bulbs for my lamps but here I am, in the parking lot, cracking up at this video 🤣
Oh and I feel bad for Chris because that "Slap" looked painful. I was surprised Jada didn't stop Will when she saw him getting up out of his seat!!!!! 😳 Because I was going to tell him to stand down. Because ain't no body was going to further escalate it to the point of ruining the more important moment of my husband being nominated for best actor in a film. #justsaying
This is why I love you Funky. You take emotion out of it and use logic and common sense to do your reviews. You practically said word for word what I’ve been saying. The joke was in poor taste (as a million other jokes) but Will was dead wrong and his ass should have been thrown out lol.
He should have been escorted out! Immediately! Dead wrong! Wrong time! Wrong place!
@@tenneildoe3674 exactly, had that been a lesser known actor who was not as powerful, they would have thrown him out right then and there. Will has a lot of powerful people backing him and he used that to his advantage.
🙌🏼
Then why did will laugh initially? Go back and watch he was cracking up then he saw his wife smh
@@dickersonr6172 I never disputed that lol. He was laughing. He only changed his tune once he seen Jada’s face. Had she laughed as well this would have never happened.
Baybeh, we was waiting for you at the doh to talk about this!! Chile, I thought this was staged, but the awards speech Will have made me realize that he must’ve actually not been with the shits that night. God bless him and whatever he’s going through
This stuff dont even happen at THE BET AWARDS 😂😂😂
Comedians are going to joke. That’s it that’s the statement. To get up there and embarrass a grown man over a joke that you laughed at is dumb. Why would Chris fight back if he was technically at work? Will looked like a big fool slapping ppl over a woman who keep embarrassing him.
Chris Rock should have said, "I guess everything is open in Will's marriage except for jokes!"
Jokes aside. I was sad. At the end of the day, one of my childhood heroes, Will Smith, laid his hands on another person. He literally physically assaulted someone. If that had been myself, I would have been escorted by security and then arrested for assault.
Then, his speech had almost nothing to do with WHY he won his Oscar and almost entirely to do with a personal existential crisis he's going through that also reflected delusions of grandeur when mentioned "God" and the "devil". ..... ....
It was just rough to see.
I literally never comment on anything but I love the way you broke this down and hit it from several different angles.
Amen 🙏 and this is why we love Quinn.
Comment more!! We love opinions ❤
When Will was yelling he was yelling to everyone who has wronged his wife. He was fed up and that was the tipping moment
That’s what I was saying. He was yelling at the whole industry. That man and that crying meme done sat up here on rent free on the internet for two years on the. He had to do something.
Absolutely!
Yup, I totally agree. He was done.
And that's why it was so wrong. He took his anger out on the Black man that DIDN'T fuck his wife!
🤣🤣🤣 yall takin it too far.
😹 That ad is so outta pocket. Bwahahahahahahahaha
It overshadowed the moment. Will been crying in alot of interviews lately. He crying inside..Hope he finds peace.
Oh he cried right after the incident. Slapped Chris, cursed him out and then cried at the table. Something’s going on with him
I couldn't wait for your commentary on this issue!
Chris handled it well despite the fact that Will hit him so hard, his mouth was twisted. I feel sympathy for all parties. Smh.
Thought I was the only one who noticed that!
He's mouth was still twisted when he was standing behind Questlove. I felt so sad for Chris.
Except Chris mouth been twisted like that
Please, That was an open hand slap.
I think it's safe to say that it's safer to say "candy man" three times than to say " G.I. Jada" once 😜😁😂
This was so funny lol
Y'all lucky Paul Mooney wasn't up there, cuz Will would have really been mad. 🤣
Will and Paul don’t have the history like Will and Chris.
Will is STILL alright with me! Enough is enough. Chris is like the town bully and last night we found out he has no bite! Chris is lucky and I'm surprised no one had done it sooner.
Well he needs to slap August publicly, because August outed his wife
Yup!!!
@@leslieburgess6985 yes for letting out their family secret
Exactly with his big ass fake teeth
@@leslieburgess6985 At the end of the day WHO is August?! Nobody cares about him LOL. He came and WENT. Chris on the other hand has an actual career and has been verbally jabbing at the Smiths for YEARS. That c**n went OFF script to especially get at Jada. Why? Also, why are people caring about who's been in Will & Jada's bed?! They don't owe anybody an explanation especially when most people talking are getting cheated on right now and don't even know it, broke asses are straight up in 1 sided open relationships lol and/or miserably ALONE. Next.
I have never felt that "Roasting" someone is Comedy. It's tearing someone down, point blank period! Words have Power, Violence is never Good, You just never know where a person is mentally and there is so much a person can Handle at times. So, If anyone wants to come out the Mouth unfavorably, and you want to use Comedy as a justification to tear someone down, then, handle and take the Punch just like you gave it.
Yup - there is a time and place for everything and Chris wasn't even hosting this year, he was just presenting an award. He didn't even have to tell no jokes, just wave and smile and present an award. He earned that one, and I am sure that it was a long time coming.
Yes! AND right before making fun of Jada, his joke about Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz was uplifting and complimentary.
All these folks talking about the optics can eat a couple of dycks. That was one of the realest things I have seen in a minute and Will gave us insight into where he was coming from.
The Oscars gave Will that full 5 minutes to him to say his piece. The "there's never a reason for xyz" people need to sit down.
The world disagrees
Which comedian you know don't clown people especially at these awards shows
True, I never found roast to be funny. Its bullying.
After reading Will Smith's book and him saying that hes always been a coward (Childhood Trauma) speaks volumes... he watched his mom get beat by his dad and he never tried to help his mom...he just stood there and watched in silence... so I'm sure he will not let anyone humiliate his wife as an adult. Also I feel Chris isn't a "threat " he was doing his job..he was at work..working the Oscars....I can't see Will smacking 50 Cent, Dr Dre, or Suge Knight..lol just to name a few. When Will smacked Chris it really was a message for Laverne... unfortunately Chris was the last straw... I feel the joke was in poor taste but typically Noone is off limits when it come to comedy. I feel bad for all parties ..the damage is done but hope they can have some sort of resolve. The Smiths are just over it ...
Who is Laverne?
Laverne Cox. (Actress)
If the Smith's are over it then the Smiths need to stay from around that red table. When we air our laundry (be it dirty or clean) on social media, we then open our experience up to public scrutiny. The moral of this story is keep your business off dem people's social media if you don't want to deal with the backlash. Is that not what we tell kids and young adults???🤔
They shouldn't be. The put their business on front street. Jada stay disrespecting Will. Talking about Tupac. She doing poems about Tupac. Will did and STILL DON'T DO nothing.. August put penis in his Jada mouth in his house in his bed and he has been ducking and dodging August Alsina. August exposed they fake in love marriage.
Will Smith is a puppet and Jada is a puppeteer. She going to continue to emasculate him. They just need to divorce and move on.
@Amber Turner If he slapped a trans woman. We know he would be in jail!!! That’s the problem everyone else is protected except black people.
It totally took away from Will's winning moment. I get he was upset however, it was a better way he could have handled it.
"if you want your hair to grow so you don't get picked on at a comedy show" LMAOOOOO FUNKY, I hollered
I’m still cringing and have second hand embarrassment. Hope someone checks on Chris. He’s my favorite comedian
That was super Chringy!
I feel badly for all parties involved.
1. Jada because her serious autoimmune condition was the butt of a joke told on live tv in front of 52 million people. Words hurt.
2. Will because he got physical instead of using his words on live tv in front of 52 million people on the night he won an award. His first Oscar win is now forever tarnished by his poor choice...could have talked with or slapped Chris backstage after the win.
3. Chris because that had to hurt and he had to play it off and keep going. Security did not help him at all and Will got a standing ovation for his win/slap. The joke was in VERY poor taste, hurtful, and just wrong. Getting assaulted for it on live tv in front of 52 million people was not ok.
I feel badly that on a historical night for black people in the arts, violence took centerstage... it's what many have come to expect from us. I hate that Will played into that narrative. Schools across America hold Oscar's nights. Not a good example for them.
It was just not good all the way around...
Agreed
What was security supposed to do? Will slapped him, turned and walked away and sat down. Will is not some random ass person so security is not just going to run on stage cause Will walked up there. Also like many of us at home, I don’t think security thought it was serious until Will started cussing from his seat. By then Chris obliged and moved on with the show.
@@kristintee6808 True. It caught everyone off guard. Maybe once he arrived back at his seat they could have escorted him out to at least tallked to him about staying in his seat and not yelling profanity on live tv?
Perfectly Said.
Will could have waited to accept the award, At that time he could have shared his feelings in a appropriate manner. Words speak Volumes!!
2nd. What made Will think he was above anyone to WALK ON STAGE ans Slap another Black Man.
Theres the Media opportunity to say. The Black community cry to be Nominated and Win! Then show this is their behavior.
“The Slap Heard Round the World…” ✋🌎🧢
Not a good look though.
I think it was, people confuse society demands with human nature - He did what needed to be done and is ready to be accountable to whatever consequences come with that.
@@jaccl4539 Did he have that same energy for August Alsina?
@@gaffle-411 I wish he had that energy for him but the nuance is I can fight my family all I want but you disrespecting me as a man or hurting my family crosses the line. Apparently he approved of the AA situation which to me was disrespectful as a man but it was agreed upon as a family. I know its messy his frustration with that situation was the fallout of people punking and disrespecting him.
Will can care less about the oscars or getting hired for another movie he can fund and has the network to create movies he is interested it - You saw after the incident Tyler Perry and Denzel willing to show public support as well ad Diddy the business is covered.
I think the Laverne Cox situation pushed it over and enough was enough and this was a great situation to act out
@@jaccl4539 He APPROVED of AA?!?!? The word "cuck" comes to mind...
@@gaffle-411 yeah and it is what it is - to me the problem is Jada and he should have left her a long time ago but regardless he is still fighting to be the "only man she needs"
Even though I think Will could have handled it differently; I do understand that there’s just so much a person can take. I think Will is fed up with the jokes & disrespect towards his wife and his marriage.
But the disrespect toward his marriage is coming from his wife?
#presscharges #fuxwillsmith #cancelwillsmith
Will and Jada are the ones who chose to share too much information about their strange marriage, beliefs, and affairs/entanglements. No one asked and no one demanded their story.
@@millana100 Actually, August Alsina was the one who shared the information and they were left with no choice but to address it. Now, Jada has shared the reason why she’s bald headed so to make a joke about her illness which is something she can’t control was insensitive and wrong on Chris part.
@@shaeb.9627 Thank you!!!
Some people are too blinded by stupidity and hatred to actually research things
This slap has brought on a lot of deep conversations today. I like how you broke it down and I totally agree with you. None us would have ever expected this from Will. You never know what may be a ‘trigger’ for others, but this clearly was!!
I would have love to see the reaction of Kat Williams or Dave Chapelle had Will decided to put hands on one of them🤔
@@GoodyGoody534 he wouldn't have done Kat Williams, of this I'm sure. Mix in his short stature, and the whole Napoleon complex would have had some mortal combat ish going on
@@GoodyGoody534 Dave I don't know. Dave seems like some kinda mental whisperer or something, he seems to diffuse anywhere he "goes" among Black men...
He flew to see Kanye in Wyoming.. The Rick James story that timed right before he died so he could enjoy a career revival, Prince, etc...You know, he just knows his way around Black men
That’s why we should be so mindful of our words sometimes. Words can be violent too. As the housewives always say, you cannot control how someone reacts to your actions. Both are wrong
Well it wasn't the joke that triggered him. He was laughing along w everyone else while Jada rolled her eyes. I'm sure it was HER reaction that caused Will to get up & do that dumb shit.
Why do I keep hearing “ will was protecting his wife “ ?…. From what she was never in danger ! He was showing off! It was a joke not a insult ! And……. It was not two people getting physical it was one out of control punk ! He handled that situation like a b?&$h
Exactly
ABSOLUTELY! Chris never threatened her with that joke. Her life was not in danger. Protecting a public figure from ridicule is like trying to protect a tiger from a fight with another tiger. It's par for the course. Will was wrong all day long for his actions. You don't get to walk up to ANYBODY, slab them, walk back to your seat adjusting your suit and tie AND sit down and TALK ish. I will never agree with assault, regardless of what words were spoken.
I applaud Chris for keeping his cool. No one checked on him: no security, no medic, producers, etc. He remained calm and professional. Then Will got a standing ovation and got jiggy with it at an after party. Just wrong. 🙄
I read that Eddie Murphy checked on Chris
I applaud Chris too. Security and everyone would’ve had to checked, because the Oscars would’ve became The Thrilla in Manila part two if someone slapped me let alone in front of the world.
@@journiee2me518 🙌🏼
@@lareewilson3199 I hope that’s true because very few celebrities have spoken out in his defense.
@@lareewilson3199 I hope Eddie Murphy did check on him. He should not have gone to any party and went home to sulk for destroying an evening. What a selfish fool.
I don’t even say the “N” word around White ppl, let alone get to fighting in front of them. That was tacky & uncalled for. Because where was all that energy on the Red Table when she was telling all y’all business. Chile …. He got some nerve
Exactly 💯
It was uncalled for. Leaping onstage and attacking the comedian for doing his JOB is wrong.
Yea Cause Rickey Smiley Was Saying Now Comedians Are Now Not Going to Be Funny To Protect People's Feelings smh
“He leaped” 🤔 wow
@Serenity Hansberry well then fat folks shouldn't be made fun of due their medical condition and folks need to stop making blind jokes about Stevie wonder.
Igh when he make a joke about someone that’s deceased that you don’t like, then we gon see what you do and say
He shouldn’t have even said anything about Jada tho, she had nothing to do with the joke/topic. He didn’t even talk about Will who was the nominee
That advisement for that tea had me dying 🤣🤣🤣😫🤣🤣🤣
I understand your point Dineva, however Will could have handled it differently but I guess I’m ghetto I support Will.
Has nothing to do with being ghetto.
Can't wait till somebody slaps Kandi's name out of Michelle Brown's mouth.
Me to, loved it 😅🤣😂
@@andreawhite6653 😳😳🤣🤣🤣
My husband watched & said...."Yea, I get it! I may have waited, but I definitely would have put hands on him for disrespecting my wife!" I feel the same way. So if I'm ghetto for feeling that way, well G.H.E.T.T.O is what I'll be!👑
I was just sitting here hoping you would do a video!!! Tuned in at work now !
If you watch Will when Chris is telling the joke he is clearly laughing so I think when he turns and looks at Jada's reaction he realizes, oh snap I shouldn't be laughing because she's not amused, which prompted him to over compensate in his reaction in my opinion
Yep
People keep saying this, BUT it looked more like an uncomfortable laugh.
TRUE TRUE because if its not funny to her then its not funny to him he is so trapped with someone that has boss him all their married life. He clearly laugh and it was loud but she gave the side eye and he knew he would get slapped if he didn't do something right then, Will is a punk for what he did .
My heart aches for Chris Rock. He’s had some questionable moments but nobody deserves that. Assault aside, he was humiliated. This insult is solidified, not only was it broadcasted - it will be a stain.
Also, disheartened that a lot of people embraced Will Smith for this. Unacceptable. Nobody’s responsible for your triggers. Show some restraint and communicate.
Not arguing or attacking, but I genuinely want to know: you've shown restraint your entire life? When it came to any & everything? You've never had a breaking point?
Plus dude literally explained that he just doesn't get social cues as... you know... a neurodivergent person ? But dealing with it is tricky, especially when your job is to use that for jokes
@@mr.quacadile683 We all have but mistakes don’t absolve you from the responsibility of your wrongdoings & the consequences. Wrong is wrong, no matter the circumstance.
Will ain’t dead nothing… he ain’t scaring anybody… it’s not like he squared up with Chris…
Ma’am he bitch slapped
Him it was know need to square up after that especially since Chris did nothing
It didn’t overshadow the night for me. I absolutely enjoyed this year’s Oscars. I watch usually every year. Will Packard did his thing. Wanda Sykes, Regina Hall and Amy were great hosts. The music was great. It was well produced.
I don’t condone Will’s reaction but as you say, “you cant talk bad about a mfer and tell them how mad to get.” We really dont know Jada’s situation. She says it’s alopecia but it could be a terminal illness. Had Chris stuck to the teleprompter, we wouldn’t have today’s news.
Wow! You bring up a good point! What if it AINT alopecia and it’s something much worse? Whewww
On yahoo they said in rehearsal Will heard the joke from Chris and didn’t say anything
The joke was on the teleprompter that slap wasn’t about no alopecia and we can’t assume Chris knew about no Alopecia that slap was deeper then that will is tired of being embarrassed and the butt of the joke behind his wife it has been a rough 2 years for Will since that entanglement mess he misplaced his anger you can tell by the way he was crying after he did what he did he should have spoke to Chris after the show not assaulted him cause that was clearly assault was Will gonna slap Regina for her joke??? Was he gonna slap Gayle for asking abt infidelity what about Lavern Cox he was outta line and The Slap definitely overshadowed the night and his Oscar win wasn’t trending it was The Slap and Assault and Thank God Chris DIDNT press charges on Will cause he could have Will was outta line 🤷🏽♀️
Well, the people in charge won't view it that way. This Whote people judge us as a whole. His actions affect US ALL! They only see violence
@@aylangston79 that’s why I’m telling people he knew about the joke he laughed himself then he stopped laughing if Will didn’t want him to speak about that he should have told him during rehearsals my wife suffers from alopecia please remove that part and it was done
Bitch looka here and hear me good. I felt that in my spirit. I wish we could all be our best selves when we are at our worst but that ain't realistic. Will slapped the piss out of him and I understand. Sometimes you just snap.
I completely agree!
AGREED
Yes stop playing with people.
My stance completely
Slapped him into next week - we probably won't see Chris again until then.
He definitely had time to think about his actions on that walk up to the stage. He could of handled it better than that
I'm talking about Chris Rock and how well and professional he handled the situation
Exactly‼️
Just because someone doesn’t defend themselves doesn’t mean they handled something professionally. Some people are just scared to fight back.
The way he protected his wife let’s you know that her pain is deeper and he knows what she deals with behind the scenes. I don’t condone violence but I appreciated seeing a man love and take up for his wife openly.
Thank you. She was in so much emotional pain about it that her daughter shaved her head in solidarity. It’s deep for their family. He did as he should.
His wife cucks him with his sons friends and he cries and supports it, lets not act like he's some old fashioned protective man lol
Nah... after yall do a show and book tour on your marriage now you want to protect her nah fam, protect black woman at what cost.. the cost of possibly looking like a fool on a white platform
And THAT'S the part right there. His reaction told me that there might be more to the story than she just has alopecia.
👍👍👍👍👍❤
I think Will laughed at first cause he's polite. But when he looked over and saw his wife's face he walked up there and smacked the dog 💩 outta him. For disrespecting her. I think he had an epic night.
I think the laugh was sarcasm,he chuckled before the explosion.
I'm gonna need him to have that same energy with August
Agreed.
@@eurekaleeper161 Why would he need to have that same energy with August? Did yall miss when Will admitted he told Jada to go find happiness elsewhere and they both had rumors of having an open marriage? You don't go on vacations with your wife's boyfriend and get mad. Will himself was spotted with a lot of his costars with rumors of an alleged relationship as well. "Bad marriage for life"?!?
Why weren't they mad at Regina Hall's joke?
Whew I have missed your normal commentary on the regular! Thank you!
