shocked



Simps will always be simps. Ever ready to take a bullet for and defend the woman who is ever ready to gobble up another preek.
Will Smith himself laughed at the damn joke, till he noticed Jada wasn't cool with it.

So he had to play hero to a woman who has never gotten over her obsession with Tupac Shakur. A woman who does not in any way cherish her marriage to him.

A woman whom all he has done to all their marriage is to plead with to remain put with him.

So he had this type of energy, yet his wife chose to fvck his child's friend and won't have let go of him till the small boy shamed her for her preek neediness.

He had this energy and he couldn't slap sense into Jada's head when she was proudly admitting her entanglement with August Alsina on their round table talk.

He had this tyoe of energy and he can't discipline his kids who would rather write a dead Tupac Shakur letters chronicling how their mom has remained perpetually unhappy without him and how they wish he was their father.

Will Smith, if you like slap John Cena, the world will forever consider you a simp.
It's a shame that a man as hot as Will will go through shit, go beserk and do bizarre stuffs just to get the validation of the unrepentant cougar he happily calls wife.

At this rate, I won't be shocked if one day I read that Will put a bullet through his own skull because if this isn't a trip to rock bottom, then I wonder what is.
This is what happens when a man marries the wrong woman, or when a man thinks he can convert the affection a woman has for another man.

Once you start out begging a woman to love you, you spend the rest of your life in pure agony, because love can never be forced, bought or begged for.

I expect Chris Rock to do what is right and press charges ASAP.
una dey reason sha, see what your own brain could process out of the situation, let him sue now and see how the charges will be turned against him for publicly assaulting the image of a woman for a medical condition she's suffering from and all you could come out with is to tell us rubbish about her past, you no try at all. we all got a past that should not be used against our present and future. learn to reason better. one love

Their are limits to jokes! Not just toying with peoples emotions and thinking it’s all a joke.

Can he try such joke with NY or Chiraq drill rappers?

When life sees you weak, it throws shiit at you. He saw will as a gentleman and why he had the effrontery.

So happy Will could come out of his emotions and deliver it right on that fvcking stage he was spewing gibberish!

And to top it up, He still bagged a award

Will Smith is not a fulfilled man because he married a wrong woman - the biggest mistake a man can make.
He married a wrong woman and have stayed together more than the people who claim love. Sometimes I wonder if you people think before commenting.

t Sunday night’s Oscar ceremony, Will Smith shocked the room by approaching the stage and slapping presenter Chris Rock in the face after the comedian made a joke about Smith’s wife, actor Jada Pinkett Smith.

Rock was on the Oscars stage presenting the category for best documentary. He began by making a few jokes about the audience members, including Pinkett Smith, referring to her as “G.I. Jane” due to her closely cropped hair. (Pinkett Smith has spoken in the past about her battle with alopecia.) Shortly after he made the joke, Smith walked to the stage and slapped Rock across the face. He then returned to his seat and shouted, “Keep my wife’s name out of your fucking mouth.”

At first, watching the telecast, it was unclear whether the assault was a planned bit. But the show’s audio immediately cut out after Smith slapped Rock, then stayed muted as Rock said “Will Smith just smacked the shit out of me” while Smith walked away. Smith then returned to his seat and shouted, “Keep my wife’s name out of your fucking mouth!”

“Wow, dude,” replied Rock “It was a G.I. Jane joke.”


Rock went on to present the documentary prize to Summer of Soul director Questlove. Immediately after, Sean “Diddy” Combs came onstage to introduce a clip montage celebrating the 50th anniversary of The Godfather. “I didn’t know that this year was going to be the most exciting Oscars ever!” he said. “Okay, Will, Chris—we’re going to solve that like family. But right now, we’re moving on with love.”

Per Vanity Fair’s Rebecca Ford, Denzel Washington pulled Smith to the side for a conversation after the exchange, kneeling alongside Pinkett Smith when the show returned from the commercial break. Tyler Perry also joined Washington and Smith during the commercial break. The Smiths, per Ford, have been holding hands since the assault occurred.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myjEoDypUD8

An Academy librarian also confirmed to VF’s Joy Press that this was likely the first time there had been real violence onstage at the ceremony. However, this was not the first time Rock had made jokes about Pinkett Smith at the Oscars. During the 2016 ceremony, which Rock hosted, he poked fun at Pinkett Smith for famously boycotting that year’s ceremony. “Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s panties,” Rock said at the time. “I wasn’t invited.”

Smith is in attendance at this year’s Oscars competing for the best actor prize. He has been considered a front runner for months, thanks to his performance in the biopic King Richard.
Serves him right, You don’t make jokes out of peoples wife and expect them to smile at you, Chris Rock and other comedians most especially this our Nigeria comedian they should know there are limits to what you say on stage about people.

Irrespective of the provocation the joke may have elicited, I condemn Will Smith's reaction 100%.
Big ups to the maturity of Chris Rock. Mehn, this dude really rocks. I really can tell how I would have reacted had we swapped places.
Finally, people should learn to stop being overly sensitive when comedians and compères do their job. Every joke MUST be on something or someone or some place. No joke exists without involving a noun.
Pray tell, why should a fat person take offence when a joke has been made about fat people when he just finished bringing the roof down with laughter after a skinny people joke was told. Beats me, seriously.

Really, there are limits to joke, because I believe if you and your mother (sorry to say) steps out and she is dieing of cancer and someone start making jokes of her ailment, I believe you will not start laughing your mother but rather react.

But Will is dumb for doing that though, he was initially laughing at the joke till his wife's face changed and he decided to act unprofessional and like a tout, he lost my respect though. Why not wait till when you're goan give a speech and banter it out. Anyway, that how bad boys roll

Can we be more stern with whoever incites rather than being stern with one who retaliates?

A girl slaps a boy. The boy retaliates. The narrative would be why did the boy slap the girl and that the girl showed maturity for walking away. That's bad. Will Smith lost a fan for responding but Chris Rock isn't losing a fan for making such a stupid joke? Smh

All Jada's condition was her hair loss. She wasn't dying of anything. If she was that would have been way insensitive. I think a brotherly conversation between Will and Chris after the awards would have calmed things down. Also, you have to understand that is comedians don't give jabs at people, they will be broke like bricklayers.
