Chris Rock has broken his silence after being slapped in the face by Will Smith at the 94th Oscars on Sunday (March 27.)
Rock started off the Boston date of his “Ego Death Tour” tonight (March 30) by asking the crowd “Sooo how was your weekend?”, via NBC10 Boston. He continued, “I don’t have a bunch of sh*t 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 sh*t. And it will be serious and funny.”
The comedian was spotted for the first time since the incident earlier today while leaving the Boston airport to start his “Ego Death” comedy tour, of which tickets have surged since Sunday night. While presenting the Academy Award for Best Documentary, Rock included a reference to Jada Pinkett-Smith’s hair, which resulted in Smith taking to the stage. Jada has previously been open about her alopecia diagnosis.
