Will laughed at the joke.
Yeah, in Hollywood they are trained to laugh at anything the person on stage says.
So, Will did that --
then that shyt processed -- then he looked at his Jada and saw her reaction -- and knew he had to check that shyt.
Jada probably already knew Chris was gonna come for her since he has before and no problem going after Black women. So, she was ready for the bullshyt.
In addition to that, you do know they have "applause," "laugh," please clap,"please sit," "please stand,"etc --- just like they have "on-air" cue cards/boxes that light up in large audiences at award shows. You do know that right?
Did you not notice that even
after Will slapped him the audience laughed -- and some even laughed again
after the first --"keep me names out your mouth." These folks are trained to laugh, clap, etc at these events -- especially everyone in Hollywood.
Will saw a Chris, a fellow member of Black Hollywood talking slick shyt about him and his wife AGAIN.
But, now Jada has a medical condition that has been fukking with her self-esteem and overall mental health. And Chris has the nerve to try that slick joke and try to humiliate her on a global platform -- and in their face.
On the slap - you never know when the spirit moves you to slap someone. shyt happens.
