In a truly shocking moment, Will Smith just smacked Chris Rock in the face after the comedian made a joke about jada pinkett at The Oscars.
Chris was up on stage Sunday presenting for Best Documentary, but before he started naming the nominees … he was firing off zingers to the crowd, and eventually landed on Will and Jada Pinkett Smith.
Chris made a comment about Jada’s shaved head … saying he couldn’t wait to see ‘G.I. Jane 2’ — which got some groans from the crowd, to which he just sorta shrugged off.
Chris didn’t think he’d crossed a line, but Will clearly did … because he stormed the stage and literally socked the dude in the face. A stunned Rock exclaimed, “Wow. Will Smith just smacked the s*** outta me.”
The American broadcast on ABC muted, and even froze, but in other countries it continued … and Will shouted “Keep my wife’s name out your f****** mouth” twice to Chris.
Chris eventually gained his composure again and carried on with handing out the Oscar, but the room was left tense with a sense of unease.
