Chris Rock Refuses to be a victim after Will Smith slapped him at the Oscars

Chris Rock is not a victim!

After months of the infamous Oscars incident where Will Smith slapped him in front of everyone, Rock finally has something to say about it.

The comedian reacted to the unfortunate event with humor and said he wouldn’t press charges against Will. Furthermore, he made a joke about the slap during a stand-up show over the weekend.

Rock, who co-headlined the Only Headliners Allowed comedy tour at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Saturday made a funny statement about his slap.

He said:

”anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face,”

The comedian further added:

“I’m not a victim. Yeah, that shit hurt, motherfucker. But I shook that shit off and went to work the next day. I don’t go to the hospital for a paper cut.”

The show also had Dave Chappelle as a surprise guest.

The public praises Rock for his professionalism

It is the first time, Rock, 57 has addressed The Slap publicly. He had previously hinted that once he would be done processing the news fully, he would make a joke about it.

Even after such a ghastly incident, Chris was always very professional toward his job.

Just days after the 2022 Oscars, he sold out tickets for his stand-up show, and when he arrived, the audience gave him a standing ovation.

The star said at the time:

“How was your weekend?”
“I don’t have a bunch of shit about what happened, so if you came to hear that, I have a whole show I wrote before this weekend.”
”I’m still kind of processing what happened. So, at some point I’ll talk about that shit. And it will be serious and funny.”

Smith, on the other hand, has stayed out of the spotlight since the Oscars event.

As a punishment for his inexcusable act at the Academy, he has been banned from all Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences events for the next 10 years.
