CHRIS ROCK REVEALS THE ONE WAY HE'LL TALK ABOUT THE WILL SMITH SLAP
By JAMIE PRIMEAU
While presenting at the 2022 Oscars, Rock poked fun at Jada Pinkett Smith's buzzed head, referencing Demi Moore's look in "G.I. Jane.” While Jada's husband initially laughed along, Will quickly saw his spouse wasn't amused and sprung into action — going up on the stage, slapping Rock across the face.
In his first comedy performance post-Oscars in Boston on March 30, he was greeted by a standing ovation, per Deadline. Rock reportedly told the crowd he was "still kinda processing what happened," but that he'd address it "at some point" and "it will be serious, and it will be funny" when he does.
Now, TMZ is reporting Rock will only spill under one condition: if there's money attached. The outlet speculated it's likely he has been approached by broadcast companies for an interview and maybe the paycheck just wasn't big enough.
Rock's comment came during his Fantasy Springs performance on April 8. He said, "I have a whole show and I'm not talking about that until I get paid. Life is good." The "that" being the infamous slap, of course.
