If he can't get CR to do a media play/ploy, he is done
The bruh he slapped and embarrassed forever is the only person that can help him

What’s crazy is people talk like Chris doesn’t have a family. Like he just sprung from the aether 50+ years old fully formed or some shyt. He has two black daughters, right? They had to see their father slapped on national TV over a relatively minor Jada Pinkett joke, but fukk his black family, right?
Comedians serve a vital community function whether it’s highlighting the absurdity of a particular collective ethos, subversion of the status quo, championing free speech, or bonding communities.
Also, some of y’all really underestimate the destructive capabilities of white people. Will is not just going to be able to shrug this off in a few weeks. If/when he gets a new role this is all they’re going to ask him about. When he’s doing a media tour — this is all they’ll ask him in re-worded way. If he’s casted in a new movie… they’ll be talking about boycotting it, and the production company, and the director, and picketing, and the reviews will mention the dastardly Will Smith, and so forth. “How could you hire that criminal for a role?!?!” Them Disney roles and shyt? That’s dead. White people have made whole ass negros/people disappear. Y’all remember Isaiah Washington? James Franco? Exactly. Obviously, not stars on Will’s level, but Will is going to have to take a seat for awhile. Will’s recent movies were not doing well prior to this commercially with the exception of Aladdin. He’s going to have to holler at Tyler Perry or something, because them Hollywood white gatekeepers going to

All this for a woman that is literally in love with a dude that’s been dead for 20+ years and pines for him every chance she gets, publicly humiliates her husband at every turn from I never wanted to marry him to he can’t satisfy me in bed — to I really didn’t know him before this pandemic. I asked my girl if (who is the best woman I’ve ever met romantically — by far) if she would have wanted me to slap Chris and was like, “Of course not. That’s silly. I wouldn’t let you tarnish everything you’ve worked so hard for. Besides that, I don’t need you to slap anyone that hasn’t physically harmed or threatened me to feel honored by you.” My black queen.
I do feel bad for Will on some-level. Dude has an incredibly unappreciative Delilah for a wife, people coming at him from every angle from the child rearing of his kids, his religiosity, his children’s sexual proclivities, the entanglements, etc. He has to feel like he’s being crushed, but with that said he fukked up bad.
