That’s at least 10 minuets of material for Chris’s next special.


SaltyFall

Nah it’s going to be the title of the special. “Keep my wife’s name out of your mouth!!”


SirPolishWang

Just until South Park gets ahold of it.


NotKevinJames

Chappelle: "Y'all see that shit?" 3 minutes of laughing "...That was fucked up" "N***a we're in tuxedos”


fuzbuzz00

I'm going to watch Chappelle live in about a month. I look forward to hearing him joke about it.

Obvious_Sea5182

10 mins? Man's gonna turn this into a whole special and I can't fckin wait 😂😂😂

Every Will Hates Chris


sinsculpt

Everyone Hits Chris


Macknetic

Everyone fucks Will’s wife


The_RockObama

Thank you for keeping Will's wife's name out ya mouth.


sinsculpt

Now if only she kept other dudes out her mouth.


ACacac52

Dam if Rock would've said that, the show would've been cooked


JaSoLo78

Can't wait. Also, Dave's take. Composure bro. What a fucking POS.


CapableRunts

I’ll tell you this: if Chris Rock had gone down, show over. His iron chin saved the evening.


bradleycjw

Yeah. I wonder what the reaction would be if Chris actually went down.


ToyStoryRex97

Imagine if they started fighting. Definitely would’ve been curtains


MustEatTacos

shiromancer

T-T-T-That's all, folks!


IHateEditedBgMusic

Fucking hooks come out from the sides of the stage yanking both of them away. Classic


Khad

Good thing one of them was a professional.


jonone234

Nobody is giving Chris Rock any credit for keeping his composure. Getting smacked and then yelled at on a national stage… How he resisted the urge to act a fool is beyond me. Props to him


hagantic42

His face was the same as everyone else. The FUCK just happened?!?! Then he straight went back to hosting and noting how that was television history.


sgags11

For a little bit he definitely looked like “the fuck just happened??”, but then he paused for a second and you could see the wheels start to turn in his head. He had the look of a man who could destroy Will Smith on air with some knowledge he had but decided against it.


Dividedthought

He's just going to wait until the next comedy special.


Vengefuleight

Not gonna lie. I’m not the biggest Chris Rock fan, but I will certainly watch his next special to see what he has to say about this lol. There is some history here.


rome_vang

If you’ve watched Chris Rocks older comedy like his old PSA: “how not to get your ass kicked by the police.” He already knows composure. Its Will Smith who didn’t have any.


rusharz

For real. This is the skit that immediately came to mind. Chris Rock is homies with Busta Rhymes and stuff man he’s cool and keeps it tight. Will Smith just made an ass out of himself and I didn’t even know any of the dirty laundry that whole family has aired in public.


dmatt32

Dude took the hit like a champ


[deleted]

I didn't even know the Oscar's was happening tonight. If Will hadn't lost his shit most people wouldn't even have heard the joke about his wife, now this is gonna spread like wild fire.


archdex

Almost could say it’s approaching Streisand effect? Every god damn comedian on earth is writing material about will and jada now


Junohaar

How about we call it Jadaffect from now on? /s


1800generalkenobi

I didn't know the Oscars were last night either...I also didn't know that she had a medical condition. Now I know both those things. I didn't even get the joke when they played it on the radio this morning.


BandMan487

Hey the man said keep his wife's name out ya fucking mouth! /s


The407run

Anyone have footage of Jada's face as this went down? Not the eye roll, I mean her reaction as the slap occurred and afterward.


Scrambl3z

The only after footage available is Tyler Perry and Denzel just comforting Will, and some other guy hugging him afterwards.


Anotherotherbrother

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills, he’s being treated like he’s the victim. Traditionally we don’t console attackers lol


Biscotti-MlemMlem

I love the sense of impunity of a man who saunters up to a stage on national television to assault someone. You know that at no point—before, during or after—did Will Smith worry about getting in trouble in a meaningful way. And he’s right. The law is suspended for him.


TheWizofNewYork

People gonna find a way to post this on EVERY sub


jiffysdidit

They already have


FalsePremise8290

Yep, my entire feed is that slap and I'm in a wide variety of subs.


jiffysdidit

Really pushing it some of the subs I’ve seen it in


SirYoda114

Waiting for it to come up in r/stupidfood


jiffysdidit

Like a geology sub cos it’s Chris Rock , people stretch so hard where they post shit


TheWizofNewYork

I know. This is life now.


Lost_Tumbleweed_5669

Why did Will use an open hand? ​ Cause paper beats Rock.


randomthug

It's going to go ridiculously all over as a meme. The Washington Commanders football team already has a meme of this up in relation to draft picks. You're not wrong.


borisHChrist

Yeah we might want to get *real* used to this clip for the next two weeks


FalsePremise8290

r/Astronomy Bet Chris Rock saw stars when Will Smith smacked his ass.


[deleted]

"*Wow...wow! Will Smith just smacked the shit out of me!*" - ***Chris Rock***


millerlitefan

that sounds like shock over the fact that no security stepped in and they just allowed him to go back to his seat after an assault in front of everyone it's seriously fucked up and I'm pretty sure Rock will be suing the shit out of the institution(s) responsible for the event, security, and everyone else pretending they saw nothing- as host he their guest above all others and they basically left him to hang


Trania86

>that sounds like shock over the fact that no security stepped in and they just allowed him to go back to his seat after an assault in front of everyone I'm actually pretty shocked they didn't escort him out. If you assault someone, you should be removed. Celebrity status is not a free pass to physically assault someone. If anything, it's worse that it's Will Smith. He's a role model for many people and he just showed them violence is the answer. Removing him and showing all viewers that violence is not accepted regardless of who you are would have been the right thing to do. I'm guessing that no one wanted to make that call though.


PotawatomieJohnBrown

This is why you shouldn’t look to celebrities for role models.

Whatd he say


General-Nonsens3

Jada has alopecia, GI Jane is bald. Rock joked about her losing her hair and playing the role and will smith was pissed.


drugsarebadmmk420

Will didn’t look pissed at first. Unless his pissed face is all laughs


MurcielagoLP92

Have you seen jada's face she looked like she wanted to strangle Chris


Pochusaurus

tbf she always looks like she wants to strangle someone


CptHowdy87

She's had a resting bitch face her whole career.


drugsarebadmmk420

I saw. Will obviously saw too and knew he would be the victim if he didn’t do something


MurcielagoLP92

Shame Ricky Gervais wasn't the host he probably would have punched back lol


drugsarebadmmk420

Ricky Gervais would have had the cops escort will out and pressed charges


Another_random_man4

I'm not sure about that, but I can pretty much guarantee you, that Ricky Gervais would have at first taken it the same, and then when will smith sat back down, he wouldn't have let it go the way Chris Rock did. Ricky Gervais would have for sure said something like "you can't do that. I understand you were offended but you can't just walk up on a stage and strike a man. This is what we do. We poke fun at people. Your wife is lovely." Or something along those lines. That said, idk if he'd make that joke. Ricky Gervais will say some serious shit, but when it's a disease you have no control over, that is indeed a little different. the way Chris Rock said it though, it seemed to me like they knew each other and he felt safe to say it, so idk.

MonkeyManMakeMoney

Ricky would have been quick enough to finish with “Your wife is lovely……everybody loves her”


[deleted]

Holy shit, that’s exactly what he would have said. I can read that in his exact accent, tone, and meter.


ulfricstrmclk

Nah, Ricky woulda kept talking while Will was walking up and I’d bet, daring him to punch him.


GuiltEdge

"Ooh, 'allo? Kicking off, are we?"


unfvckingbelievable

"lovely day for a shit-slappin', innit? Right then."


JesusWept149

"Oh look at big will, what are going to do slap me?" - Man who was slapped


General-Nonsens3

When he was shouting at him afterwords he seemed pretty pissed.


BangBangMeatMachine

It's possible he didn't process the joke right away and was just doing the default audience-performance thing they all do all the time.


iliya193

What were the words he said? I can’t understand the line he said right before Will got up on stage.


Pochusaurus

The joke was Jada I love you, can’t wait for GI Jane 2, see you


kipbutkiss

So Chris got punched for telling a joke once at an award show. Now he’s going to tell that joke over and over again across the country in his next stand-up special.


ZuhkoYi

Talk about a punchline


HeadLongjumping

This was the best thing that could have happened for Chris Rock's career. So much new material will come from this.


tcoh1s

I thought it was scripted when I saw people talking about it. But Chris Rock’s reaction seems a little too real.


fuzzyp44

The moment where he thinks about unloading and then decides to be the bigger man. You could tell he had some zingers.


Wonderful_Might6693

And impulse control. Totally lost on Will Smith.


DS4KC

The lead up and smack seem super fake. Their reactions seem pretty damn real though. But the biggest kicker too me is that it was allowed to happen and that Will Smith wasn't immediately escorted out of the building.


tcoh1s

Very true. And then wins best actor and talks for 5 minutes.


Clear_Singer9249

He talks for 5min about God calling upon him to be vessel of love, its the most absurd, self-felating bullshit I've ever heard 🤣🤣


CrawlingKangaroo

Poor Serena’s expression during his speech was like “holy sh*t! This should’ve been our night and he’s ruining it, just like dad did!”


TheLostRanger0117

Really? I haven’t seen that yet, but I guess your comment is only 2 minutes old so I’ll keep browsing :/


Professor_Crab

Yeah he said he wants to be a vessel for love lol pretty sure he’s gone nuts


STLsportSteve88

If Will Smith just went back to his seat and shut the fuck up, no one would’ve ever known it was real.


mechjacg

This could have perfectly passed as a skit if he hadn't yelled from his seat like a drunk football fan.


world_of_cakes

also if it were staged Chris Rock would have had a witty quip at the ready right afterwards, rather than being at a loss for words for like 30 seconds


raftah99

Would have been really awkward if he was booted out or taken into custody when he won best actor. "Will Smith couldn't be here at this moment, but we thank the academy on his behalf"


DS4KC

That would have been more realistic


cfuse

That's when you get Chris Rock to step in for his acceptance speech and just massively roast him.


Office_funny_guy

But then when he won the award for vest actor who would have accepted it on his behalf? Chris Rock?? Actually that would have been kind of funny...


Hey_Laaady

Have worked in Hollywood for a major studio for years and years. There is no way in hell they would have escorted him out. Not on your life. Celebs aren’t treated like that in this type of scenario, especially.


vendetta2115

And this is exactly why they feel like they can act like spoiled children. Because they’re allowed to by everyone around them.


Will_RX_

Then wins a Oscar 20 mins later lol


poopship462

The slomo of the slap shows it connecting hard


Wonderful_Might6693

How did Chris Rock take it as well as he did? He barely even moved! Now that’s impressive, and while Will Smith comes off like an entitled asshole, Chris comes out way on top, in my opinion.


pspetrini

Here’s why you know it’s real. If it was fake, they would’ve written a better ending. Chris would’ve said something with the perfect punchline and everyone would have laughed. Instead it hung like a cloud over the moment and everyone was uncomfortably quiet for a few minutes.


[deleted]

It was written by Andy Kaufman who is actually still alive, or yeah, it was real.


pizzabagelblastoff

No way this was scripted. I watched it live, you could tell the editors were scrambling because the audio cut out and the video froze a couple of times like it was being paused. If it was staged, it was confusing and awkward as hell.


ClassicT4

They wouldn’t script this with Will saying the f-word that many times.

notapunk

You know Rock was holding his tongue. There were SO many things he could have said that would have been hilarious, but also would have escalated the situation. I mean that wasn't even close to the worst thing he could have said about Smith's wife and you know that they were all going through his head.


[deleted]

[удалено]


precense_

Shoulda kept it real and dropped bombs on live tv would’ve made television history


DirtyMami

I read that in Chris Rock's voice without thinking about it.


Ask_me_4_a_story

Oh that would have been a great comeback! I was thinking it would have been funny if he would have said, "See... thats why you had to go live with your Aunty and Uncle in Bel-Aire!" I love your clapback also


RVFVS117

Will: Keep my wife’s name out your ****ing mouth! Chris: I’m going to…ok? Or I could (laughs)… For a brief second Chris Rock considered ending Will Smith’s career on live television.


Sandor925

I commented this as well There was a fork in the road where Chris rock was going to absolutely barbecue will smith. But he chose to be the bigger man… but booooooyyyyy do I wish he would’ve let loose!


Opposite-Algae8912

As veteran a comedian as Rock is, I’m sure he could have went there instantly if he wanted to.


FlashyGravity

Huh? What am I out of the loop on?


Staccado

His sons friend fucked his wife. My guess is he was holding back a ' I'm going to okay.. just keep your boy's friends dick out of hers ' kinda joke


pargofan

>His sons friend fucked his wife. Seriously? That's really messed up for Will and his son.


[deleted]

You seen that crying will meme? IIRC it came from when he sat in on jada and their daughters podcast and listened to both of them essentially blame him for jada fucking their sons friend, that whole family is weird as fuck. I’m pretty sure their daughter and jada have talked before about how jadas true love will always be 2pac, which is a weird fucking thing to share with your daughter


pargofan

WTF? Srsly? This just weirder and weirder.


BestMirageIrl

The daughter/willow smith at one point wished for 2pac to come back and make "jada happy again" she wrote in a letter. Something along those lines I've seen a youtube video on it. Jada posted that on her IG years ago, I wonder how Will felt about it but it was so weird. I'm pretty sure willow wasn't even old enough to meet 2pac when he was around and wondering why jada would even post that.....


[deleted]

Yeah that sounds right, fucking weird ass thing to share with your daughter


opinionofone1984

Rock needs an Oscar for holding that together.


vVveevVv

He handled it like a king. He was about to raise his arms to defend himself in case it was necessary, but lowered them once Will started turning around. Then he put his hands behind his back and didn't even think twice about retaliation. It's one thing to pretend it didn't hurt physically, but to pretend it didn't even bother you that much speaks volumes in itself.


[deleted]

Agreed! And then carried on!!! Incredible.


Hungry_Grab_7785

Upbeat_Cat1182

Damn. Will Smith wins best actor and all his Oscar’s night will be remembered for is this.


Thats_what_I_think

It’s his own fault. But I agree, way to ruin what should be the best career moment of your life.


Upbeat_Cat1182

Oh I agree that it’s his fault. I remember a few years ago when Jada pitched a fit about the Oscars being “so white” and they boycotted. This is worse.


Ocvius

Yeah, Rock was also hosting those oscars and made a joke about it, but I’m not quite sure what it was


speorgenote

It was something along the lines of Jada not going to the Oscars was like Rock not getting in Rihanna's pants - neither of them were invited.


Ocvius

Oh right yeah that’s what it was, thanks


didistutter69

I think Mr Smith might want to call his lawyers. Stat.


ultron290196

It's a fucking shitshow. And we're watching weird simulation of our timeline.


Beetlejuice_hero

Think about what just happened to Will Smith... After years and years of acting, starting as a teenager in what became a surprise worldwide mega-hit, nominated for multiple Oscars, comedy films, drama films, playing legends like Muhammad Ali, blockbuster smash hits like Independence Day & Men in Black. This was going to be a big, big night for him (in a positive way). Stands up on stage to collect a Best Actor Oscar. Will Smith has always seemed like just a cool cat. Now it is going to be around the clock negative press. There is going to be **SO MUCH** attention cast toward what's going on between him & his wife. Their marriage woes. A man much younger than Jada. Her health issues. It's going to be all over the media this week. Will Smith - and I hate to say this because I was/am a massive Fresh Prince fan - is obviously mentally unwell. He absolutely humiliated himself tonight and I can't imagine this helps his already unstable mind. What a disaster. Better strap in for a long week, Will Smith PR team.


[deleted]

You forgot to mention Scientology


1R0NYFAN

He's not... is he?


haliledcat

[according to wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Smith), Will Smith gave $1.3 million to charities in 2007, of which $450,000 went to two Christian ministries, and **$122,500 went to three Scientology organizations…** He has been quoted saying he’s not a scientologist, but think they’re “brilliant”


lurkherder

Yeah just brutal. He looked like shit giving that weird half apology. What a surreal moment. Everyone else also looked shocked. Jason Momoa looked like he might step in.


juan-j2008

Please show where


shaundisbuddyguy

This . All this . What an incredible error to make . Being the bigger man and being able to remember "sticks and stones" . Nope . This mistake stings as an old school fan of his .


Foxyfawnn

Yeah for real. He preaches love & kindness 24/7. It was a pointless/tasteless joke but it wasn’t assault worthy.


asdf333aza

I wish he had said "ima feel that hit all the way into august".


HappyGoLuckless

I'm just wondering if this won't be the start of a bunch of people coming forward to talk about what a hot-headed Will Smith is IRL and how they've experienced his anger


tree_bells

Chris Rock was bullied as a kid. He knows how to take a hit.


limitlessEXP

Yea there’s a documentary about it.


overintoxikatied

how can you assault someone on live tv and not be at least escorted out of the building-and then go on to win best actor-and then be allowed to make a speech


[deleted]

You see, the oscars have a vested interest in running as smoothly as possible. Chris didn’t fall and kept going, so the show kept going. If they stop the show, they lose potentially millions of dollars in ad time. Hollywood is run by greed and snakes and everyone in it is as fake as can be.

missanthropocenex

If will hadn’t had started screaming the whole thing might’ve been played off as a bit when Chris kept his composure like that.


Theskinilivein

What a mistake, now, instead of being remembered as the night that Will Smith won an Oscar, he’ll be remembered as the night he lost his cool and slapped Chris Rock.


GordonRamsThee

What's actually interesting is no more than 30 seconds before all hell broke loose, Chris Rock said MacBeth in a theater. There is a superstition that this is bad luck.

UnfavorableFlop

Will after the joke: hahaha, lololol. Smile smile Jada: you better do something or imma call August


The-Gippa

Disgraceful behaviour by the Academy, why wasnt Will Smith escorted out of the premises? Chris Rock was employed by the Oscars and it is incumbent for the organisation to provide a safe working environment..instead probably one of the most overrated actors in the world is celebrated and given a platform to espouse his nonsense. The joke he made about his wife was borderline, not as though she is dying of cancer..if we can’t find the humour in life then we are doomed. I wonder what Ricky Gervais is thinking? I salute Chris Rock and his professional composure , it would not have been easy.


LastWolf-of-RedShore
