Chris Rock was met with resistance by Will Smith during his Oscars presentation on Sunday, March 27 — exclusive details
In the rearview window. Chris Rock chose to focus on having fun after getting slapped by Will Smith at the 2022 Oscars. “Chris is unbothered by the incident,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. “It takes more than that to shake him up.” The Grown Ups actor,57, was “surprised” by Smith’s reaction to his joke about Jada Pinkett Smith during the Sunday, March 27, telecast, but “it didn’t ruin his evening,” the insider says. The former Oscars host “still went out and partied with friends at Guy Oseary ’s party,” the source tells Us, noting that Rock was “laughing and drinking with friends” as the post-awards show celebration. “ He didn’t seem shaken up at all,” the insider adds. The comedian and the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum,53, raised eyebrows on Sunday after Smith stormed the stage in reaction to Rock’s joke about his wife,50. During the broadcast, Rock said he couldn’t wait to see Pinkett Smith in the G.I. Jane sequel due to her shaved head.
