Comedian and actor Chris Rock dressed in all white kicked off his Wednesday night show after a thunderous three-minute standing ovation at his first standup show since Will Smith slapped his face at the Oscars Sunday night.Oscars producer Will Packer said Los Angeles police were ready to arrest Will Smith after Smith slapped Chris Rock on the Academy Awards stage.
The LAPD said in a statement after Sunday night's ceremony that they were aware of the incident, and that Rock had declined to file a police report. The department declined comment Thursday on Packer's interview. Packer said he went up to Rock after the incident. "I said, ‘Did he really hit you?’" the producer asked Rock. "And he looked at me and he goes, ‘Yeah, I just took a punch from Muhammad Ali,’ as only Chris can. He was immediately in joke mode, but you could tell that he was very much still in shock."
The academy said in a statement that "Mr. Smith’s actions at the 94th Oscars were a deeply shocking, traumatic event to witness in-person and on television."
You can’t tell me that wasn’t a staged situation that went wrong. The Oscar ratings have been tanking the last couple years as people realize the elite do not need to be recognized anymore. Check out who advertises on the Oscars next year. You’ll see. Propecia.
They offered to arrest him? I didn't know after you assault someone you get the choice.
They don't need Rock to press charges. Assuming the police didn't personally see the assault any two persons who did can complain and that is sufficient to arrest. Two are required because its a misdemeanor and a cop counts as two witnesses.
Maybe he will FINALLY stop talking smack about them and to them. ChrisRock is a Dbag and STILL has NOT apologized for bullying. Look back to 2016! He has a record of harassment.
They should have
