You have to be black to get it????

I don't get it.

Not sure if that was even a real hit. Assault charges? Oscar ratings? It was just awkward and weird.

I'm guessing because Jada has a shaved head

Spoiler!


It's funny watching Will laugh initially but you can see Jada's reaction. Cue the white knight reaction right after.

Hollywood is such a rancid pool. Makes Skid Row look 5 star....

Jada Pinket has a condition (alopecia) that results in her losing her hair. Joke was about G.I. Jane II ... shaved head.

I saw it on TV and didn't realize he actually hit him. Everything was bleeped out. That wasn't that bad of a joke, not sure why Will Smith went off.

Will was laughing too though...

No injury to Chris Rocks face either, so was it just a publicity stunt cuz ratings are low?

So lame of Will

Seriously... They let Will stay, didn't even call the cops or kick him out, then gave him an award and cheered him

I assume she's pretty sensitive about it? Making a joke out of a medical condition is pretty low.

It's pretty low if Chris knew ahead of time of her history for alopecia.
Anyone see Will's acceptance speech about Williams defending his family? Perhaps that's why Will did what he did after seeing/realizing that Jade wasn't happy about Chris' joke.

I couldn't decide if he was accepting an award or making a reason for why he did what he did... either way he came off pretty crazy... dude talking about God putting him on earth to protect and love people and some power is flowing through him?

Dude you make fuckin movies lol... get a grip

What was going through Will Smith's head before the slap

"Everybody else thought that that was the funniest shit. And that threw me in a weird space cause I'm like, "Yo, this is Chris Rock and he's a star. Maybe I'm overreacting." I actually went there like, "Maybe I shouldn't do nothing." But my ghetto side was going, "Yo, stomp this motherfucker out right here. What the fuck is wrong with him?"

You don't go to jail for slapping someone.

I guess I can't relate but isn't alopecia a treatable non life threatening condition? I don't know is it publically known that she has been depressed about this before? I mean if she had a crazy battle with cancer that's another thing. Again, can't relate in anyway shape or form. Right or wrong staged or not meh it was interesting for all of 2 mins for me then I moved on. I guess I'm glad someone didn't start a thread on this lol.

It's interesting you ask that, because Chris Rock himself hosted a documentary on the very topic.

Quote:
The film focuses on the issue of how Black-American women have perceived their hair and historically styled it. The film explores the current styling industry for black women, images of what is considered acceptable and desirable for Black-American women's hair in the United States, and their relation to Black American culture

...

According to Rock, he was inspired to make the movie after his three-year-old daughter Lola asked him, "Daddy, how come I don't have good hair?" She has curly, wiry hair typical of many people of African descent. He realized she had already absorbed the perception among some black people that curly hair was not "good".
In any case, it's obviously a sensitive topic for her, and Will probably got embarrassed for laughing at the joke, and freaked out.

And no, alopecia isn't really treatable. Most men have it and eventually shave their heads. For many men, this is a difficult transition, and many don't even accept it, opting for bad looking wigs and expensive surgeries. For women, it's an even harder step to take, and based on the documentary, maybe even harder for Black women.

Given the setting that's definitely not the actions of someone who's doing too well mentally. His acceptance speech didn't really help either, he sounds a little nutty. You'd think a couple who airs their dirty laundry on TV would know how to take a joke better.

I respect defending your wife but he could have went about it in a different way. It's wild that nothing happened after slapping someone on live TV lol, that Hollywood privilege.

Cut the Fresh Prince some slack ... prob going through menopause.

As an aside, not to minimize Jada's condition ... she is one lady who rocks the bald look pretty damn good. Not every lady can do it.

but then will was screaming at him from his seat after and i saw the look on his face i'm like oh wow ok...

They all look pretty stupid from all this. I wouldn’t be with a woman who’s talking about fucking other dudes on Oprah if I were Will, that’s for sure. More unfunny shit from Chris rock too. Just a bunch of rich people doing dumb shit with giant egos as usual.

^ ... that's the Oscars in a nutshell.

But some movies in and of themselves do touch the heart and human spirit. I didn't know half the movies nominated but eg. CODA ... Children of Deaf Adults looks like a worthy one. Belfast may be another one.

Will Smith is a fucking weirdo and an idiot for doing that. It's a joke, this is why people have begun to absolutely hate Hollywood and the elitist assholes that reside within it.

You physically attack someone on television for a joke, then proceed to give a speech after winning a reward and not even acknowledge it whatsoever?

These people are fake weirdos, and Will has proven how nuts this man has become nowadays.

His ass should've been booed out of that entire place, if those sycophants in the audience had any integrity, that would've happened.

To be fair, when things happen in real time Twitter isn't there to tell them the appropriate way to react, they are totally lost.

"Are we cheering Will or cancelling him???"
