Will Smith smacking comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars 2022 has left people around the world in utter shock. What initially seemed like a planned skit was later confirmed by the officials as something unscripted.
The heated confrontation between the two celebrities was a reaction to a joke made at the expense of Jada Pinkett Smith, wife of Will Smith. Referring to her as "GI Jane", Rock made an unsavoury joke about Jada's baldness, to which her husband, Will reacted with a slap onstage.
