THE “WILL SMITH SLAPPED CHRIS ROCK” MEGA THREAD

[ThirdAct]

Yep.

But thing is it's primarily ego breh. Like my dad said, he didn't like how Will walked up there so arrogantly like he had the right to interrupt that type of show and hit someone and then walk cocky back to his seat.

But once you have the kind of fame and fortune and ppl worshipping you, you can lose yourself. To our knowledge Will has avoided losing himself, at least publicly, up to this point.

And then at some point, they start thinking they, as entertainers, are sent by God, and then the ego goes up even more when you think like that.

I think this article on Will is relevant to what you're saying:

Introducing the Real Will Smith

Talks about how he cared too much about pleasing people until he got to his "fukk it 50's" (term created by Denzel lol), how he cowrote his book with with the author "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a fukk" and of course Jada and how she never wanted a "conventional marriage"

If he truly didn't give a fukk, he woulda just kept laughing like "You right Chris, my wife is a bald bytch"

[Thebadguy]

She really said this?

 

[OJ Simpsom]

Dont know why more people arent talking about how this movie might have caused this. Even Jada's eye roll to Rock is the same one she gives Chappelle in that scene. We all know Will and Jada probably watched it a bunch of times like everyone else over 20 years old. Like I said in another thread. Will became Buddy Love in that moment.

Will was outta pocket, handled it wrong and was dead wrong for what he did.

However, the more I rewatch the beginning there was something off. With Bardem and Cruz he's highlighting what happens if she doesn't win the oscar. With Jada its talking about her being bald. Its like he switched from Oscar jokes to stand up jokes. Now I didn't think much of it at the time cause Jada hasn't been worthy of defending IMO

And Tiffany Haddish, of all people, was right about the GI Jane shyt. I legit forgot in school brehs(women too) use to always clown bald head chicks and call them GI Jane/ or "dyke".

So from Will's perspective, this nikka Chris really going to have his wife called GI Jane for social media world to constantly throw at her (mind you most probably didn't know her condition like that)


If Jada wasn't such an easy target we'd probably be looking at Chris like breh really with that transition

Its a number of jokes he could have threw at them instead of going at her head.

Like I said before I wish Will handled it better cause its really going to be stuck with her now. However, emotions got the best of him.

Exactly breh I said this is another thread.

If you watch the full segment, you'll see Chris was laughing it up with Denzel, Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem talking about their performances and possible awards and then out of nowhere just makes an insult about Jada.

Almost like he was instructed or remembered he had to do it.

Like you would have thought he would have said something about Will as everyone who is was talking about prior was up for an award that night. But he ignores Will says the comment about Jada and then was going to get back on topic.

That's how I know what he did really came from The Academy.

Yea, he made the joke last Oscars about Jada not being invited. This oscars its about her being bald. He didn't have to make things about her. He could have easily made a Richard Williams joke.

He could have kept it about Will .

In fact, I thought he was about to make fun of him for wanting to play every important real-life black man until he gets an oscar (Ali, Pursuit of Happyness and Concussion brehs)

 

[Originalman]

That new angle showing jada laughing at rocks joke after he got slapped

She really played will once again…

Nooooo that can't be true? Is that really true? Oh lord don't tell me that is true..........











You lying breh.....ya'll out here making me think Jada really is Palpatine....

Did Chris crack appearance jokes on anyone else ?

 

[Cladyclad]

This crazy I didn’t knew Samuel Jackson won a Oscar.

Damn

 

[breakfuss]

I’m not with canceling will smith

Brotha. It was a slap. nikkas making like he broke bones or shot a nikka. There should be repercussions but people wanna destroy this nikkas life over this shyt and it’s crazy. This is literally the man’s first offense ever.

We need to reject this idea we can't constructively criticize black people without wanting to cancel them. You honestly think I want this brother "cancelled"? I understand wanting to protect him but that was some bytch nikka shyt... stop trying to rationalize it. Same middle-aged twitter birds now talking about "protect black women" are the ones still stanning for R.Kelly . They not truly concerned about that bullshyt. They just want to normalize the image of a black man having violence enacted upon him in a public forum. They equate that reckless shyt with chivalry. I don't care if the slap didn't actually inflict a lot of physical pain, it was disrespectful as hell and should be condemned.

Did Chris crack appearance jokes on anyone else ?

No, I think people need to come to terms with the fact that he is a c00n.

You can say "would will have the heart to attack a different comedian", makes no difference. Chris was the one who targeted Jada on that platform for a reason. Other black comedians would either have the consciousness not to do what Chris did, or would show the same lack of respect to every attendee.

Damn

They GAVE him theaward.

 

[OGBobbyJohnson]

If Will never reacted nobody would've even remembered the joke

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

If Will never reacted nobody would've even remembered the joke

Yea we would

It wouldn't have been NO where near this big.....this shyt turned into a shyt fest

But I see one of those messy ass blogs like shaderoom doing a IG post on it and becoming twitter viral....

Still...even that would have been nothing compared to THIS

 

[stellarstella]

They GAVE him theaward.

Like Corey Holcomb said…”they gave him the bootleg Oscar”





Still, congrats to him. I wish he had won for a Time to Kill
