Chris Rock’s mother has spoken out about the infamous Oscars incident where Will Smith slapped him live on stage.
The 57-year-old was humiliated on the global stage in March when 53-year-old Will stormed the stage of the Oscars to slap Chris in the face after he made an ill-judged joke about the hair of Jada Pinkett-Smith, who suffers from alopecia.
Will took offence to Chris’s joke about 50-year-old Jada, assaulted him in front of the A List awards show audience and then screaming further abuse from his chair upon his return to the audience.
