Chris Rock unleashes on Will Smith and wife Jada a year after Oscars slap

Will Smith hits Chris Rock onstage during the 94th Academy Awards in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, US, March 27, 2022.LOS ANGELES — A year after he was slapped on stage at the Academy Awards, Chris Rock hammered Will Smith and his wife in a comedy special streamed live around the world, joking that he enjoyed seeing the actor beaten in his latest film.

In March 2022, Smith walked on to the Oscars stage and slapped Rock's face after the comedian made a joke about the appearance of Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. The King Richard star returned to his seat in the audience and later won best actor. The comedian said Pinkett Smith had stirred tension among the three, in part by calling for a boycott of the Oscars in 2016 when Rock was the host. Pinkett Smith said she was protesting the fact that Will Smith and other Black actors were not nominated."She starts it. I finish it," Rock said.

The comedy special was the first event streamed live on Netflix, which is testing the technology as it considers expanding into other real-time programming.
