jambostuart Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Seemed to laugh at the joke, see his wife's reaction and stood up for her. Not a fan of him and in fact think he's a wank but fair play for standing up for his wife. Was an unusually cruel joke for the Oscars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambo89 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Not sure how I feel about it. On the one hand, if a punter takes the P out your wife in the pub, we'd all react the same. On the other hand, it was a comedian making a joke at a showbiz event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ri Alban Posted March 28, 2022 Author Share Posted March 28, 2022 Threats to life or physical harm, yes. A joke about her shaving her head. (Faking hair lose). Gie's Peace. Richard Madeley hates Chris Rock, so he's using it to fuel his hatred.(Because of one bad interview, which Chris Rock has always admitted he hates interviews) If someone from the crowd came on and attacked comedians they'd be in the jail. Smith is obviously a violent man and the rumours from Bel-Air are true . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Салатные палочки Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 100% faked. Slap, punch, spit, anything your first reaction would be to put your hand to your face afterwards.

Der Kaiser Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I dont think it was staged imo. Defending your family is honourable in one aspect but it was just a joke. Maybe Chris Rock should have joked about her affair to balance it. Gervais said much worse at all his Globes appearances and no one hit him, not even Mel Gibson.

Craig_ Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I don't understand. He set himself up beautifully for a cracking punch and then slapped him instead?

Locky Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 As a self proclaimed funny man, you'd think Big Willie himself would be able to see it as an innocent enough joke, regardless of how it came across. Also, given their position in showbiz, I'd imagine Chris Rock and Will Smith have crossed paths many times and have at the very least, a decent professional relationship. Rather than show yourself up in front of the entire world, surely he could've just pulled Chris Rock aside after and had a word? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locky Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Just watched the video there. Will Smith having a right old chuckle at the time. Judging by Rock's reaction, I'm going to say it caught him off guard for sure, but Will Smith's handling of it all is a bit bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyJudyJudy Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Heres the full scene. It definitely isnt scripted as actors etc are told quite clearly they cant say shit on live tv. Some think it was chivalrous of him to " defend " his wifes honour whilst others think she stirred the shit as he seemed fine after the initial joke until she said something ? Also its 2022 and women are quite able to defend themselves. On a serious note its extremely tacky and embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyJudyJudy Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Actually just thinking more about this issue. I suppose if it is authentic it is quite worrying regarding the concept of cancel culture. ? Are jokes now off the radar at these events as everyone is so sensitive and cant take joke ?

Say What Again Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I don't mind Will Smith but that made him look a total knob. Rebel Wilson was on the radio earlier saying it's always been a comedians job to walk the line with jokes and that's what it was. I could understand that reaction if he suggested his wife was a slapper or something like that. A joke about alopecia? FFS Not a chance it was scripted. Chris Rock looks stunned and Will Smith goes back to his seat and starts screaming f-bombs. Hey guys, we've got this great idea to create a bit of media attention. Chris, you'll take a slap in the chops and Will, you'll like like a tosser in front of millions around the world and your acting peers. Yous in, aye?

I don't want to be drawn on the rights and wrongs of what he did but would a prestigious event employ someone to make jokes about the illnesses of people in their audience? Not sure they would. The Oscars are an irrelevance these days, playing for views. So prestigious in fact that I'll bet they're loving the attention it's brought.

Its never been the same since the old stars died like the ones i mentioned above. They all have class and elegance etc. No slapping each other around the pus. Pure class from Bette and Marlon.
