Chris Rock slaps back at Will and Jada Pinkett Smith — hard — in live Netflix special

LA Times  

When Will Smith slapped Chris Rock during the 2022 Oscars ceremony, many members of the live audience and TV viewers at home thought it was a joke — until they realized, to their horror, that it wasn’t. After making little comment about the incident during his concert tour last year, and turning down numerous interview requests, Rock finally hit back on Saturday with a flurry of brutal jabs at Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, bringing up allegations of infidelity in their marriage and describing his Oscar-winning foe repeatedly as a “b—.” The comedic slapback came during Rock’s Netflix special “Selective Outrage,” broadcast live globally from Baltimore’s Hippodrome Theatre. “You never know who might get triggered,” Rock, dressed in an all-white outfit, joked in a veiled allusion to the slap in his set’s opening moments, promising a show that would offend nobody. “The last thing I need is another mad rapper.” For much of the special, though, Rock avoided the hotly anticipated subject of his run-in with Smith to follow his friend and fellow Netflix comedian Dave Chappelle in an extended discussion of “wokeness” — including Chappelle’s regular target, trans people — and nod to such low-hanging comic fruit as O.J. “I took that hit like Pacquiao.” Rock dredged up the question of Pinkett Smith’s alleged infidelity to her husband — an “entanglement” the couple has addressed on the show “Red Table Talk” by saying theirs is not a “conventional marriage.” “She hurt him way more than he hurt me,” Rock quipped.
