Body Language Analyst REACTS to WILL SMITH/CHRIS ROCK SLAP at 2022 Oscars. WAS IT STAGED? 

Because of a Slap??? No way

@@timo7102 if it was like a ‘fan’ or a random stranger they probably would tbh

Omg I’m so sick of hearing this. Do you not think people realize this?

​@@timo7102 people had the police called to the event but chris rock didnt want to press charges. So yes because of a slap(since it still assault lmao) can get you arrested my guy.

You don't know much about the law do you?

That’s his way of paying Jada back for cheating on him multiple times. Solid play if you ask me when

Good point. Chris sharp on his feet, but Will not so much. Shoes as a man with some shame and anger issues.

Actions speak louder than words as the saying goes. It proved exactly that..

@@6ftmouse349 lmao I never thought that way.

Good perspective

Exactly.

Well said

He from Brooklyn

Yessssss. Wow you don’t even know how I needed to see this comment .. “strength sometimes is from what you don’t do”

👏🏽

Nothing is forgotten wen u have the internet and RU-vid

He still got the role of Genie in Aladdin and did a damn good job at it. I'd say on par with Robin Williams

exactly. like "I could say so much right now, but... no... I am at the Oscars, I have a job to do, and I am not lowering myself to your level". my deepest respect.

@@adapopescu7237 respect indeed!! That being said, the gossipy side of me wishes he would have opened up that dark side 😂🤣

He even said "that was a nice one"

@@adapopescu7237 more like “oh I could feel that slap till august”.

please he pussied out

And exactly thanks to this restraint he did win.

Chris made a disrespectful joke, that he intentionally left out of the script and rehearsals, and you applaud him for not saying something even worse after Smith hits him??? What the hell is wrong with people

@@jameseric3521 his job is to make jokes. If those celebrity pricks can't take a joke then they shouldn't sit right in the front where they would get the most attention.

His ticket sales have gone through the roof...

@@jameseric3521 "Chris made a disrespectful joke" Which he was being paid to do. Ever watched Gervais at the globes. Should each actor have walked up and smacked him for each disrespectful joke made at their expense. Pretty sure Gervais didn't include every joke in his script either. BTW, what do you think the joke was about?

Came here to say this. The "bright lights" theory makes no sense without the raised hand to shield the eyes, or even a squint. He was clearly expecting Will to say something to him in his ear, especially considering the initial, positive reaction he would have just seen Will have to the joke.

@@PedalExperiments That’s what I thought too. I think he expected for him to whisper something to him.

Indeed, but you might even go further and say that he sensed something was coming. He risked getting hit but making the other guy (WS) look bad. As far as composure and street smartness, he is just a level above. The Fresh Prince's a little impulsive it seems.

Never throw verbal punches if u can’t take the physical punch back!!

@@LGAussie get the hell out, so people can bang his wife, but a comidian can't make a joke

Yea but the victim's don't choose if charges are made, because they are victims. ESPECIALLY if there was a video of it happening, they don't need the victims.

​@@joelsommer5765Since Chris was not harmed physically he actually can.

@@joelsommer5765 Victims or their legal representatives are actually the only people who can decide to charge the offender or not. It doesn’t matter if it’s on video or if there’s evidence.

I thought that as well... major kudos to him for not roasting him as some might have.

That's how I felt as well. And I know when I read that they think I’m being mean to Jada and thinking insensitively… I’m not I do recognize, alongside you, that Chris decided not to take a step backwards into immaturity and making it about himself, defending what he said, using the stage as a boxing ring (verbal or physical) attacking Will to make himself look more witty at the moment or retaliate. Chris just kept moving forward. Even after Will yelled out the first time, Chris tried to smooth things over like "relax, Will"... and then Will repeats it again... and that's when Chris didn't want anymore of this and just resumed moving forward and pushing along because (yes, I'm sure he was uncomfortable) but he didn't want this to escalate any further and just wanted the night to continue with what was actually planned. But Chris had multiple chances to take more shots at Will - heck, he had the mic. Now eventually the stage guys would have eventually intervened and I'm sure that's part of what Chris was thinking when "he's weighing the consequences"... but it could have been so easy for Chris to just ignore all that for the current moment of going back after Will, verbally - and he didn't. So yes, I do give Rock a lot of credit... even for a seasoned comedian... "I could..." immediately became ~ *I won't* ~ He came out of that situation a lot better than some could have expected. I realize that a joke like that could easily have been taken as offensive, such as we saw from Jada’s reaction. But when Chris is up there just making light-hearted remarks - not intending to hit anyone on a personal insult it shouldn’t have been received with such distain by Jada. Chris didn’t mean it personally as if to say ‘your stuck with that disease “haha”. To my knowledge many reports Chris wasn’t even aware. When your in that room, especially toward the front you just have to realize that you could be part of a joke and roll with the punches… Chris clearly exemplified that notion - literally Don’t misunderstand me - I realize was alopecia does to a person… and how it affects how they feel about themselves and how it cuts into their self-confidence (as I mention in a comment further below in this thread of how Will could have responded). Plus I feel that with all that money they have Jada could have easily bought an expensive wig. A friend of mine has an autoimmune disorder and she doesn’t have any hair at all… not even eyebrows and she couldn’t even touch the money that Jada and Will have and yet she draws On eyebrows and wears a wig that I didn’t even know about until my wife told me - as it looked so realistic. But Jada took it way too personal… and all she had to do was look over at Will and change his humorous mood to prompt him to do something irrational. Obviously we don’t know if she said anything to him. But I have a hard time believing that Will needed time to process that Joke… he had the same time as Jada and she immediately switch emotions and Will was still laughing. The only thing that peaks my interest on Chris’ side is this being the second time that he poked fun at Jada… (2016 Awards “wasn’t invited”) aside from that - he was just carrying on as any comedian during these awards… and from my understanding Rock had a whole list of jokes that he didn’t even touch because of that moment - up till then, he was only doing improv before led into his comedy routine he had planned the night. But it all went south and we never got a chance to hear them.

I once watched someone get offended at being roasted by a comedian and they walked up and scratched the guy on the leg. Me? I’m a guy with long hair and was in the front row and got roasted pretty well and laughed my ass off. But this bitch just couldn’t take a joke.

I agree. It hurt her feelings! She was embarrassed by the comment. She has a medical condition related to stress. Not good. Will was reacting to his wife being hurt! Not hard to figure out. Sad but Will is definitely going through a lot with her. He's defending his wife. People need to give him grace!

@@makeadifference3572 that doesnt make difference

respect for someone who makes fun of someone' medical condition? pathetic!!!!

@@lulu_Lm I think Jada will be alright...

@@lulu_Lm. Maybe Jada should tell all the voices in your head that you need to step away from your laptop and get a real life. Do you keep a nightly vigil for Jada’s hair, what a goofball!

@@kungfooey6571 And how would you know that? You're her therapist?

Think will needs a break (he has more than enough cash) so I’m sure he will be ok, clearly issues going on inside.

Yeah he was clearly shocked for being hit, and he handled the entire thing with dignity.

He was the epitome of class. I have tons of respect for Chris Rock

I dont think u said this correctly,

Hollywood A list actors are all in the illuminati cult. So when it comes to the slap it can happen without any consequences.

I agree. Will should have been barred from receiving any award from that moment on. Him receiving the award on the night did the Acadamy a great injustice.

Because then people would have claimed that a blk man was taking another blk man down and Will was only protecting his family. Oh, and that the Oscar’s was racist.

Agree. Shameful

Because Chris allowed it, he could of had them removed but he didn't want it

Will Smith would have kicked the shit out of him if he'd retaliated

@@mrmat2007 Although Will Smith is obviously a flaming idiot, he's not that stupid.

@@mrmat2007 🤣

@@mrmat2007 aside from self-restrain power, i think yes will power will overpower

I think Will Smith will be OK without more career.

Jada has emasculated him over the years....

@@roops80 agreed... But he literally became a meme after the whole "entanglement" debacle, yet didn't get physical with Jada, August, or any member of the extremely judging public after it came out. Instead, he chose to stay in the marriage and even essentially defend Jada's affair. There's a lot of discussion nowadays about the strength of the black family unit. If this was Will's way of stating that THIS is what black families should aspire to be, he actually gave the perfect example of WHY so many in society feel that black families are dysfunctional when he had the perfect literal stage to send a positive message

@staceystrine and THIS IS WHAT PWOPLW NEED TO HEAR! I bet people want them to get a divorce so badly but they are showing us even in the Ugly moments they hold on to each other… I’m so confused as to why people are saying only Will was in the wrong … Chris just as wrong especially if the Smiths had a chat with him years ago about joking. Everyone is so quick to cancel folks but celebrities are regular folk too. Literally I’ve heard so many say “I’ll ride or die for my own” “I’ll ride or die for my kids” what’s different here….

@@Pandy879 are you black? Where is this discussion about the black family unit happening? What Will did in NO WAY reflects every black person and the strength of the black family. It reflects only Will, Jada, and the Morale of the SMITH family!

Not quite sure what he sees in her. He can do so much better

Will is a seasoned A-list actor. ...still possible he can pretend it.

How was that verbal abuse? If it was then why wasn’t Chris Rock’s joke a verbal attack? 🤔

The verbal abuse was an act also. What is it with some of you. These are great actors. Any role can be played. Cmon now

@@nayqueenx read the comment sis, and its not the only one... They make it seem like take a hit and do nothing is something noble lol

@@nayqueenx it was staged tho, humiliation ritual + distraction so we see this instead of what's important .

Chris Rock made a vicious joke at Jada's expense on one of the most important nights of her and her husband's life, when he was pedicted to win the Oscar. A double blow. Will Smith, who is much larger than Chris Rock, could probably have broken his jaw with one fist blow. Smith showed restraint and that he was making a symbolic defense of his wife by delivering only a smack that did not even knock Chris Rock off his feet. Smith was justified. The sympathy and even praise for the very talented but compulsively mean-spirited, petty Rock is really mystifying.

or not? every1s been bullied once, doesnt mean u can be an bully aswell or resort to violence

Who cares?

@@pedroandrade8194 you misunderstood warren's comment, he's not justifying will smith slapping chris, he's praising chris for staying composed even after having been bullied.

Yet he bullies Jada

FAKE FAKE FAKE Will was smiling all the way up and as he started back to his seat . Never hit. If he was he would of went to his face . Nothing would stop that. Every fighter in Boxing or Martial arts would react . Plus Will is falling away . Come on Folks . Get real this is Hollywood BS . Jada is a Jezebel in the Bible . She projects shit on Will . Gaslighting and manipulating . Never tell the Truth .

Hahahahah this got me lol. I can’t teach you how to sing at all but maybe once you become an amazing singer you’ll also have the skills to really connect with people and get your talent out there 😃

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED ???

Well, it was well rehearsed, what else could you expect.

professional is the wrong word. Awesome!

How do we always end up watching the same videos haha

Chris didn't do anything because he didn't wanna get his ass whooped in front of everybody.

@@woodproctor9223 No. If he did something, the whole show would be ruined

No doubt Chris Rock is a genius... his old stand up comedies prove it.

Every single second is a historical moment.

But Chris has been a comic genius since he was a kid. Anyone like that can make a joke uot of anything.

It is impressive. His eyes never drop, he has no shame. He realises he will be remembered for decades for this moment and his response is not to recoil or lash out, just "wow..."

@@GrifoStelle I agree. My main takeaway from this was how Chris Rock took it with grace and aplomb. Impressive, indeed!

Thanks so much!

The stage manager is in his earpiece as well, may have told him to chill.

@@220bambam I would pay a lot of money to know what he was saying lol.

I fully agree. And the irony is Spidey himself is an extremely accomplished stage performer so he would know more than anyone. Mind blowing realization.

@@amp776 yeah. I would love to see Will’s continued reaction after the joke

@@brickapplex1695 absolutely! I think Chris gained so much more from this otherwise humiliating experience. More power to him.

I think what he was really thinking was "I could sue you", judging by his face.

Lmao he held back but the internet didn't 🤣 😂 💀

@@JoaoSilva-xs9dz yeah maybe. Then realized that that would sound kinda lame and whiney and petty.

Will Smith reportedly took his pants off outside his marriage on more than one occasion. I don't think it helps anyone to gain empathy or maturity to hear one side of a private matter, so I don't think her behavior was wise. However, we ALL still live in a sexist society of double standards, and Pinkett-Smith may have felt internal pressure to justify her expression of passion outside her marriage as a matter of love and alienation from Will and not just as a simple matter of physical attraction and availability. Furthermore, my understanding was that she took up with the other guy at a time when she and Will Smith were separated...

Can't be easy for Jada being married to a gay man. Still not right how she puts him out there like that, but I get it

Hahaha, Chris Rock and Will Smith are still friends. Will Smith lending to help to Chris Rock after the Oscars his shows around the states. Chris Rock have Comedian stand show in Orlando, Florida all tickets sold out. They are great actors to fool us.

@@fetr9666 well the LAPD may disagree, they did show up and were ready to arrest and charge Will. And they are not friends and have never been friends, Chris 4ock does not like Jada

@@chuckgame4210 😂

Hearing the body language analysis of this, it sounds like, as you said, that Chris is right back to his bullied days in that instance. And I think Chris is immediately seething but his years as a comedian conditioned him to keep his composure. Doubt that many of us without such conditioning could have maintained such composure.

Great point!

@@mollymole7 so perfectly said!

@@JCcreates927 so insulting a man is ok?? On another hand Chris’s comment/joke was really mild, and Jada’s “condition” is loss of hair, that’s it! That’s the condition. Hair loss is not a side effect, it’s the only effect this condition has. Now each person can have their opinion about the comment, but there was no insult, it was a pretty childish comment, too obvious to be funny

@@JCcreates927 he didn’t even write the joke.

TBH the joke was low and distasteful (IMO), but aside from that, Mr Rock dealt with it like a total pro.

She's toxic, manipulating, and doesn't deserve Will. He loves her and she's using that to destroy him emotionally, mentally, and professionally

TRULY TRUE

@@butta4042 He's an abusing asshole, and not a victim.

@@butta4042 yes, I agree!

I really wanted to get a take on that. The look she gave Chris Rock, that daggers look, she has given it MANY times to her family when Will is doing his social media stuff and on her own red table show. Well before she was diagnosed. I have no study in this stuff, but I think Will has some PTSD and that look and the stress of his category coming up probably triggered him to snap. I actually feel really bad for him.

Jada got Narcissistic supply from the control he has on Will Smith and at the same time she was secretly laughing Will is now being hated by the whole world after he was witnessed slapping Chris. Narcissist loves it when their partner is being broken and down. Makes her superior 🤷

She needs to get over herself and remember what is truly important….. she is ALIVE and has been blessed in life and she should not treat her husband the way she does and should not raise her children to brag when their father attacks someone else among other things. She is absolutely stunning even without hair and should be grateful for all she has instead of being a b@$*h!!!!

To be a bit fair, Chris took that slap like I was nothing, he just shrugged it off and continued making the Audience laugh

I think they did that because he’s not a person that is usually violent it wasn’t the normal from him that’s why everyone thought it was staged

It's called black privilege

People went to will smith to deescalate the situation. I’m very glad they did.

A most amazing human being. But maybe not in the 2016 show. They ALL didn't deserve Chris Rock's grace.

And Smith was not! Pointing to something disturbing going on with Smith.

Smith is bullied by jada 24/7 watch their table talks, she's a textbook vulnerable narcissist. Hurts him constantly yet always plays the victim. Poor Will, actually. That's why he's so emotional and conflicted. Ironically he was even manipulated into defending his bully...😒

When you chose to be on stage you have to accept being burned otherwise get off the stage Jada and will.

Very true my friend in fact you're really touching on the answers to everything when the school shooter goes in a school and Pops a bunch of kids when somebody snaps and in society everyone always throws their hands in the air and they say why they scream to the heavens why oh why oh why why why I can tell you why because no one has any damn respect for one another no one cares about how anyone else feels one stops to consider their words or actions before they just let it all fly now I'm a Believer in free speech I'm also a believer in self-control and tolerance to a point what do people expect when they continually poke the bear eventually you're going to get the teeth

its not just in usa

Respect, I agree and hope jada learns some! In fact that joke was one of the most flattering considering what he could’ve joked about amongst the mounting material between this couple, yet didn’t. No the issues of today is the lack ppl either were raised to have or chose not to have and that is coping skills and acceptance that others don’t always agree. Today it’s too easy to be offended and play victim to anything, cancel naysayers and claim opposing views are bigoted, etc. and it’s quite sad. In a country where our freedom of speech is so threatened that biden considered forcing language change for pronouns onto free ppl, considered and even proposed criminalizing offensive speech… we need comedy to bridge the gap of differences and disputes and laugh at what’s funny, laugh at what isn’t and accept being offended! Besides smith clearly enjoyed the joke, laughed at it and then got offended and lashed out and that’s unacceptable! Chris should be protected not attacked

My theory is that if Will Smith hadn’t of struck out at Chris Rock he would’ve been smacked around when he got home.

Probably knew that it would have escalated the situation further. Imagine if Chris would have come back and said something really embarrassing to Will. They would have been rolling around the stage in a full fledge brawl. Chris new that. He was probably actually thinking about his career and thought better of instigating Will even more. Chris is the only winner here.

It is an cowardly act, is not normal, and should have never happened.

His wife gets piped by other men and he holds her hand. I feel he has lost himself and isn’t capable of seeing himself as is.

@Y U sick? She's loosing her hair. Happens to cancer patients everyday. Does she have CA? If not ...get a wig ....seems like every one is wearing one.

@Y U it was a joke cuh Jada's fault for not taking it

@Y U She's not sick, it's just a bit of hair loss. I thought she was just rocking the shaved head, because it looks awesome on her. Chris Rock is a comedian, and everybody in showbiz knows that you will get roasted multiple times in life. The great individuals always know how to laugh at themselves. Much love to Chris Rock who handled the big baby like a pro. However, I'm still not convinced that it was staged because it feels off and these are actors.

More mature or not Chris Rock makes ignorant, racist, and immature jokes all the time.

Yea to bend over for men😂😂😂

Meanwhile he gave his wife permission to sleep with a boy, and who slaps another man in a fit of passion? Shouldn’t it have been a punch?

Protect from what !? GI Jane was a bad ass role...Really if Jada took it wrong thats on her....she has a show where people say stupid over share shit all the time. So like the.old saying goes Sticks and stones break your bones but words can never harm you....But a slap can.

Looking back , and this all seems too prepared, too premediated to be anykind of reaction in the moment. That very grandious slap, is the last thing a truly irrate person is thinking to deliver. A Slap? come on... This was something he prepared for, with he and Jeda waiting for anything which might be percived as an opportunity. I can imagine him and her rehashing those comments from 2016 preparing the moment, this bald moment, and what they would do if that moment presented itself again. The rest of this is an act. Chris Rock had no idea what was coming as he took the bait. He would have done better to have blanked them both, and instead make a point on the role of the comic, and the role of the Artist.

well stated.

Yeah these people have to create their own pedestal since they have such a charmed life. They make a big deal of little things like this. Also virtue signaling. They are most of them narcissists.

will told you that?

@@slrobinson nah she told the world that

This. Full stop

@@haggins101 No "they" been told the the world about their OPEN relationship foh

@@slrobinson No one needs to "tell" the recovered victim of narcissist this. It's lived experience. Will is the victim of years of narc abuse by Jada

@Theseustoo Astyages I think Chris Rock should apologize publicly and not only Will Smith.

Comedians have characteristics that are presidential. No really to have that composure and being quick witted and recovering from something like that with your intellect and not violence is a characteristic a world leader / president should have. Ronald Reagan was an actor and was known for his humor.

I disagree with you about it being a particularly nasty joke. Yeas it is from a medical condition, but I personally only knew that after the slap. It's possible Chris didn't know about it being a medical condition either. It doesn't look like chemo or something, it literally looks like she buzz cut it 🤷 And 2nd in Chris rock's words. "It was a GI Jane joke!" He didn't say anything particularly mean, just like hey you remind me of GI Jane. Not a particularly funny joke tbh, so it's even possible it was improvised on the spot as a very soft blow that he didn't realize was actually a trigger for her.

크리스락이 승자다

@Theseustoo Astyages Regina Hall humiliated Will Smith earlier but he didn't dare slap a woman, then came Chris Rock. Will's slap was about himself, he wanted to show his wife that he was more of a man than the young entanglement. It wasn't about her medical condition. The joke was used by the Smiths as a tool to play out their bad relationship. Now, we know their dirty laundry. Before the slap, I didn't know anything about what was going on between the two adulterers. Or, maybe it was just one, whichever.

It was staged

Very impressive. He handled it well.

@@yesitislikethat staged

@@georgehawkins9581 it did work out for rock lol his tour is now sold out with a price increase of 40$ tickets to 300$ tickets. He got slapped all the way to the bank

He was ready to throw hands!

😭

Or something about sloppy seconds

@@curtisthomas2670 OH SNAP!

😂😂😂😂

Chris is a seasoned comedian, I have no doubt he could slay Will at that very moment. Who knows, in a different reality, we might actually have an even greater night in the history of Hollywood

The only condition Jada Pinkett has is PREDATOR. She doesn’t have alopecia; her hair grows. Don’t be fooled by a Predator.

The joke was very tame. It was a simple short joke. It wasn't even insulting or anything. In fact, when G.I. Jane came out, Demi Moore was lauded for portraying a strong, powerful woman, and many women were apparently empowered. It could have been worse if Chris Rock compared Jada to say, Uncle Fester from the Addams family or something. Will Smith was even laughing pleasantly about the joke. Then Jada gives him the evil eye and then he turns around and acts as if the joke was the most horrible thing ever and acts as if from the very beginning he didn't appreciate the joke and proceeded to assault Chris Rock! So you saying that it goes deeper, that is confusing. If Jada didn't signal her displeasure at the tame joke, Will Smith would have continued to laugh and enjoy the moment. It was just a case of, "Hey, stop laughing, I don't like the joke, go do something about it. now!" All of those problems they have with their marriage and life, in general, came out INCIDENTALLY because people just wanted to know more about them due to the Oscar situation. And Will Smith is just using all of it to escape and justify what he did to Chris Rock

​@@WilliamVillanueva-my6cvWe don't get to decide what's insulting to someone else, specifically because we are not them, we have not lived others' lives, only our own. So the things others may have experienced in their lives that could cause them to feel insulted by... anything, are likely unknown by us. 😢

@@zheezhee352 You have your point and I have mine. What's your opinion about Will Smith enjoying the joke at first and then acting all wrathful and offended instantly after Jada glared at him? Sincerely asking. Oh and did you see the video being circulated of Jada smiling and smirking after Will Smith slapped Chris Rock?

The debate should be why Rosie Perez won a treasured award and why Will Smith will never win one??? Perhaps, Chris has inside knowledge about this glaring fact and intentionally rubbed the GI Jane reference into their faces.

Yeah right, trying to come up with stuff to make him seem weaker

@@verreal apparently you've never heard a comedian or seen Saturday Night Live. There was absolutely nothing inappropriate about that joke. He teased a celebrity about her HAIRCUT - get some perspective.

@@TheRafark having Aspergers or NVLD does NOT make someone weaker. Don't be an ableist troglodyte. But it does put him at a disadvantage when he's about to be attacked (as does the fact that he's 60 years old, quite a bit slighter stature and 5 inches shorter than Will Smith, who trained to play Muhammed Ali). And this is a fact that Will Smith took advantage of. People who defend attacking a comedian for telling a joke need counseling immediately.

Jada the pearl-clutcher.

@@AmberwingArt wow mate bit of a reach. Her haircut is the result of a _disease_ Not as simple as being about the haircut. *That* much is clear.

We need more empathy and sympathy in the world today. We find joy in other people's pain, we are quick to blame or shift blame to others.

I think Chris was the punchline 😂

@@johnnyringo5777 more like a slapline

Wow. Short sweet and to the point. Exactly

I agree. Not a big Chris Rock fan but definitely was a Will Smith fan. Hope someday my respect restores for him one day.

​@@normandyf4234 Chris Rock is a comedian this is his profession, they hired him to roast celebrities it's literally the best part of the show. Also as I've been saying, there are 8 billion people in this world and most have some type of illness or condition there is absolutely no way to know what everyone is going through... Rock didn't know about Jada's condition as he has already stated.

Right on...👍....

He should have. The best thing CR did for WS was partly dodge the slap. If he hadn’t done that and gotten knocked out instead the situation would be much worse with will facing jail time.

@@reginaldforthright805 WS is a fucking punk i am so glad that CR held his posture and did not fight back if it was elsewhere it would of been on because Chris is no punk he is from the HOOD.

@Mr. chicano I mean, how do you explain what was said in this video?

No because was fake

Showing restraint was part of the deal 😏

Christ rock the most humble man

Petition to show these memes until the end of August

@@rettyblackhorse2524 no that wasn’t the devil that was will. No one to blame but him

I have nothing to mad respect for Denzel, Will on the other hand, yeah i lost a good deal of respect for him.

100% I agree

now that is an astute analysis ...well done

I've watched the whole video and he does make many many good points, as do you, the OP in your beautifully put post. I'm not even going to pretend I'm as intelligent as either of you, but I still just can't help but think it's staged for so many dubious reasons.

Excellent analysis. The classic "I'm in the right, deal with it" smirk. Strutting away with hand-in-pocket, grinning and all. It was purely a social flex.

I definitely agree with the fact that we get a sense of satisfaction after carrying out something believed to be justified retribution. However, the rest I fully disagree with other than portraying confidence. Smirking, before or after an altercation like that, is a dominant move. At least from what I've observed. The furthest from submissive or nervous. Almost to show that you're slightly unhinged as an intimidation tactic. He's facing the audience who are the first ones to place immediate judgment or react. He's showing that he didn't regret it and would do it again if anyone stepped to him at that moment. Its why some people chuckle a little menacingly to themselves when they get arrested or are about to get in a fight with someone despite it not being a humorous situation. It's done tongue in cheek for the sole purpose of strutting and asserting dominance over the situation/everyone in the vicinity.

I think you can still like Will Smith but just know that he got paid and took a major risk to his career with this planned moment.

Anger really does something to a man. Also didn't know that about him, makes it more believable it's not staged.

@@YoBoyRona This wasn't Will Smith's anger. This was Jada's anger. She controls his emotions. Will is a puppet with no animus.

No he dropped to F bombs

Yeah he used to diss Eminem all the time for his raunchy raps so much that Eminem talked about Will in one of songs

He spent years building his image and career only to have it all crumble to the ground in less than 5 minutes by his own doing as well... sad really

Marlene thank you. Putting aside the fact that Chris Rock's "joke" was wildly inappropriate given the circumstances, Will Smith has just been living in a nightmare for the longest time. And bottling it all up. NOBODY of his caliber at an event of this magnitude would EVER lightly do what he did. This was pent up rage, hurt, and who knows what else boiling to the surface culminating in a completely automatic response. Now putting Chris Rock's "joke" back on the table, imagine how the tables would have been turned had Will stayed in his seat. I've been saying since it happened, had Will just sat there, Chris probably would have landed in hot water over that joke. Insulting a woman on her physical appearance is not comedy. I know. I'm a comedian. It's tacky, it's 5th grade bullying, it's embarrassing for a "professional" comic to do at such a huge event. Even if her condition were not a factor, the joke is STILL tacky. I know Jada is no angel. But 2 wrongs don't make a right. In my personal and professional opinion, Chris Rock should be ashamed of himself.

@@benscott9367 I suspect Chris is a little upset at himself for the joke, especially since he did a whole documentary (inspired by his daughters) about the black hair business, unfair biases & judgments and the extortion of women who have to sell their hair to keep the hair machine moving. I was shocked he made the joke (cuz I watched his program and know how passionate he is about breaking the stereotypes) however these events seem to make comics forget their own rules at times. They just want to make the majority of folks laugh and move on. I give Chris major props for keeping himself so professional afterwards and not dragging it on and on in interviews since then.

Amen. That's right on...

Yeah, I said same thing, he ruined his life for someone that doesn’t give a shit about him.

Dude

👏👏👏👏👏

And we can't forget that she could wear a wig, or a scarf or something else. If that topic is so sensible she could change that. A lot of people have real problems they can't hide. And a lot of actresses shave their heads.

Exactly, they're not gods they're human. When I watched it live my first reaction was like yours, but i remembered how i have snapped and how common this outburst are, even between family, and is not ok but is human. I'm not even fan of him, but it seems people are losing their mind when Chris didn't even press charges.

That’s a reach. How could you possibly know if she would’ve laughed?

Will Smith’s wife shaved her hair off because clumps of hair have fallen out. So she really wants to not deal with missing bits of hair. It’s like cancer patients that start losing their hair, many do shave it all off. She actually looks really regale and cool if you ask me. There are few women who could pull that off. She looks so rad. In the movie, when GI Jane shaves her hair off is a massive moment in the movie - a turning point. She is going to be a Navy Seal no matter what and no special treatment about being a woman is going to stand in her way. It is really a rad moment in the movie. I saw a conversation with a commentator in the UK this morning talking about this Will Smith incident. She also has the same disease as Will Smith’s wife and she said she covers the missing areas with hair attachments. She said it is very stressful and hard to deal with as a woman….

As someone who has severly been bullied all of my childhood & teenagehood, I'll never make bodyshaming jokes on another person. Maybe he's quick minded but not emotionally very smart to ever think it's a good idea, even if he's used to do it. Those jokes are childish and pathetic. He should have learned it when he got bullied instead of becoming such a clown. Anyway, his backstory is still heartbreaking.😔

@@FulgurSnake Demi Moore looked awesome and cool in G.I. Jane, it's more of a haircut joke than body-shaming, but I can also understand how Jada did not at all appreciate the joke.

@@hesido She has alopecia. Seems a bit reductive to call it a "haircut joke"

@@MattsMusicMedleys I am not claiming I could evade Will's slap, the way I'm looking at the situation.

@@MattsMusicMedleys I agree, on one hand, if Chris didn't know, well, still you're saying that about a woman dressed in a beautiful dress, quite inappropriate, not punch-worthy. But, if he 'did' know, then he'd be mocking her, not acceptable and would be hard to exercise restraint. Would have been nice if he'd 'erred' on the possibility of Chris not knowing.

Spot on! You explain exactly why I don't care too much for these "professional" opinion

Yep this is the only body language person so far I believe isn’t biased to these high profile situations

and how is this guy an "expert"?? Ask yourself that FIRST

@@markfrost2707 Because he has a degree? He mentions that in almost every video

just admit u found a guy who came to tell u what you want to hear cus its too scary to bekieve that hollywood orcastrates shit like this all the time

you should always follow your heart . restraint doe not change who you are, you are always who you are since you were born. Chris wanted to do so. he should have fought back just as Will did to protect his family. a big chance is he didn't do it and didn't pursue charge on Will is that he knows he had crossed the line and that's not cool in their community.

@@erinjones7780 ok, calm down there a bit.

@@Yena_394 That could only be crossing the line for extremely sensitive and entitled people. That joke was incredibly tame compared to what kind of roasts that have been made at awards shows in the last decade. That reaction was pathetic.

@@erinjones7780 Quit pushing YOUR BELIEFS on others!

@@Yena_394 Or, unlike Will Smith, he didn't want to become a complete embarrassment.

Regardless does not give him the right to hit someone

Yes

only selfish person would have ruined Will

No he could have that’s cap. What could he have said arrest him?

@@mcrain1283 I don’t know if he ruined himself but he must have learned something that he wished he had not.

@@mcrain1283 idk man it's either that or punch will in the back of the head

BINGO!….Years of family and marital dysfunction unleashed in 15 seconds…..😕. He seems broken, dejected, confused, and depressed.

except they have an open marriage lol

@@DK-ym6wh I think its Jada who wants that more than Will...so that situation is really only benefitting her

Do you think he had decided to hit him when he chose to get up out of his seat? I wondered if he planned to say something to rock instead but "panicked" in the moment and hit him.

Yup Poor man That nimpho drove him crazy

Poor will being picked on, trying being a Teacher, or Nurse, Or a Police officer, the Smith family makes more money in one month that all three of those people do all year, suck it up man. What did the Godfather tell his godson you could be a man.

Will is just a typical person who voice his emotion in a situation he didn’t like ..questions was how to do it..yeah it may look like he is protecting Jada..but to protect her properly is to go up personally to rock at a another time and talk to him and voice his concern privately ..this way no one will know except those three what was talked about hence Jada privacy and her lifestyle is kept intimate ..instead Will chose what he thinks was the manly way of protecting her in is twisted mind to approach Rock and to show others in front that he is a real man protecting Jada by assaulting the person who made Jada feel bad..Like someone said..don’t let anyone know that you are a virtues man by standing in front of the world and preaching that you are a vessels of love while in private you loath a person who mocks your love one..

Joke was a freaking compliment Ffs

Literally - like it or not, the joke was harmless. GI Jane, big F*(king deal. The Smiths took it like pathetic twats

But @orourkeda, he was sent by god to bring love! I don't feel that film was all that great. Did you know he turned down the lead in "Djhango Unchained, but he said " Will Smith has to be the hero always" and turned it down. Quentin Tarantino was dumbfounded.

Did you see the video someone took of Will at the after party? He was holding his Oscar and dancing around, laughing and singing to his song "getting jiggy with it" with people all around him dancing with him. Wtf is wrong with the world? No shame. If he was in a mentally bad spot and had realized what he had done was the wrong way, and was in any bit sorry or ashamed he would have went home afterwards.

Yeah, a legend making a joke about someone who has an auto-immune disease...hats off! :-(

@@marcchrys OMG, auto immune disease!!! I didn't know that.

@@anishbosebmw it's alopecia. It's not damaging health in a heavy way, but for many women to loose hair in younger age is devastating. I only know 2 women who have it and the psychological struggle was huge to go through. Plus one of them does not wear a wig and is a fast metabolizer. She's super slim and everybody in the streets stares at her and pity her for having cancer. Which she does not have.

Chris Marco, it was stated that Chris Rock didn't know Jada has Alopecia!

Baldness... Literally hundreds of millions of men deal with going bald every day, and deal with cruel comments, jokes and judgement from women who love to Body shame them for something they cannot control. Yet somehow, it's off limits to make a joke about a bald woman? Sit down... Lol

He's better than me - I'd've lunged at Will from the waist

He realized it was mostly fingertips and didnt feel much of anything. Smith held back on it. You can see him almost laughing. NOT saying it was scripted or staged.

It was fake

It means absolutely nothing, and it doesn't even matter who did the same thing xx time ago. To think that it is staged, because something similar happened somewhere else... is one big nonsense! Is it staged? As mentioned in the video, I totally agree with him. It is almost impossible that everything that happened was staged. Here, you can see how some people are. They take a similar case that happened a long time ago, and since it was staged, then their explanation is that this event is also 100% staged. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Some people are so smart that they can see the future even if there is no evidence for it. 🤣🤣

Me too I really felt so bad how horrible. I was in shocked with what happened and I wanted to cry too. Will could have waited to speak to Rock privately. If Will felt that the joke insulted his wife then he goes to smack him was a "two wrongs don't make a right." Rock definitely acted professionally, I truly respect his composure.

What about Jada? She looks hurt emotionally too.

@@araceliestrada7090 She can't take a joke.

Chris Rock is a loud mouth bully. Making fun of people for a living is basic and parochial. You can be funny without insulting people. Condemn all forms of violence physical and verbal. Have empathy for victims of all forms of violence too.
