Will Smith has publicly apologized on several occasions and The academywho has opened an investigation, unravels the daisy about what to do about it.
But the opinion of the attacked was yet to be known, who this Wednesday resumed his professional activity with a series of performances at the Wilbur Theater in Boston before starting a tour of 40 US cities called ‘Ego Death World Tour’. And it was on stage where the actor also mentioned what happened.
“How was your weekend?”, Rock started causing laughter from the public that packed the room. The comedian spoke briefly about “what happened,” but did not directly mention the Oscars, the Academy or Smith.
