U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley praised Will Smith for his Oscars attack on Chris Rock — then deleted her tweet shortly thereafter.
Pressley, a Massachusetts Democrat, has alopecia, like Smith’s wife, actress Jada Pinkett Smith. When Rock made a joke about Pinkett Smith — remarking she could star in a sequel to “G.I. Jane,” in which Demi Moore played a character with a shaved head — Smith went onstage and hit Rock, then cursed him from the crowd.
That brought a short-lived tweet from Pressley, who revealed her alopecia and showed her bald head for the first time in 2020.
