Chris Rock will flex his muscles
Actor and comedian Chris Rock, slapped hard by Will Smith at the 94th Academy Awards held in Los Angeles on March 27, 2022, he had so far remained silent on the matter. Aside from a few hidden winks here and there during his performances, she’d always said he’d talk more about it when the time came. And that time will come this weekend of March 4, 2023on the occasion of the live on Netflix of his show Chris Rock: Selective Outrage.
But in showman an expert in his craft, gifted with a brilliant sense of timeliness and timing, recently gave a taste of jokes and jokes with which he would address the subject of the slap. Because it was a global media event, Chris Rock knows he’s playing it big and his long-awaited comments will make a lot of noise.
“Will Smith is a big shot. Not me.”
Rather than complying with the necessarily flawed and risky exercise of public comment, for example at a late showChris Rock has therefore naturally decided to talk about it on the occasion of what he does best: a comedy show. And the few very short jokes he ever made about Will Smith and the slap in the face from him were fine evidence, evidence, a way of judging their welcome. Because as long as the audience laughs, it’s the best way to get the message across and get “revenge.” So it was recently that Chris Rock spoke at length, during a Dave Chappelle show in Charleston in January, to which he was invited. Jokes that have been reported by the Wall Street Journal.
People want to know… does it hurt? Oh yeah, it hurts. You played Muhammad Ali! I was Pookie (in “New Jack City”, ed). In animated films, I’m a zebra, he’s a fucking shark. I was hit so hard I had “Summertime” in my ears. (…) Will Smith is tough. Not me. Will Smith is shirtless in these films. If you see me in a movie having open heart surgery, I’ll wear a sweater.
At another show, as reported by the New York Posthe also said:
I have always supported Will Smith all my life. But the other day I watched “Emancipation” only to see him whipped.
Already hilarious jokes, which we don’t know if they will be part of his “special” on Netflix, but which nonetheless portend a hilarious and monumental reaction from Chris Rock to “The Slap Affair”.
