Several days after being slapped by Will Smith at the Oscars, Chris Rock is back on stage. Representing on the Boston side, the comedian returned to the incident in front of his audience.
« I’m still digesting what happened »
Last weekend, Will Smith slaps Chris Rock in the middle of the Oscars after the comedian jokes about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair. It has since been announced that the American actor refused to leave the ceremony after his gesture. Chris Rock for his part refused to file a complaint. Shortly after the Philadelphia native’s gesture, Jada Pinkett Smith came out of silence via a message posted on social networks.
On tour for his show Ego Death, Chris Rock performed in Boston a few hours ago. In the Massachusetts room, the fifty-seven-year-old man begins with this declaration (words transcribed by 20 Minutes) : « How was your week-end ? I don’t have a lot of bullshit to say about what happened so if you came to hear this I have a whole show I wrote before this weekend. I’m still digesting what happened. But at some point, I’m going to talk about that bullshit. And it will be serious and funny. “A sequence captured by Deadline also shows the room hilarious following these remarks.
