The comedian previously said he was «still processing» the moment he was slapped by Will Smith on stage at the 2022 Oscars ceremony.
Chris Rock on Friday night refused to talk about the moment he was slapped by Will Smith on stage at the 2022 Oscars ceremony. «I’m OK, I have a whole show and I’m not talking about that until I get paid. Life is good. I got my hearing back,» the comedian and presenter said during his show at Fantasy Springs on Friday night, according to the California-based Desert Sun newspaper. Rock was struck by Smith during the March 27 Academy Awards ceremony after the comedian made a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, who suffers from alopecia —an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss. Rock joked that Pinkett Smith should star in G.I. Jane 2 because of her appearance. He was making reference to the 1997 film G.I. Jane in which actress Demi Moore shaved her head.
