“They were saying, you know, ‘This is battery,’ was the word they use in that moment,” Packer said. “They said, ‘We will go get him; we are prepared. We’re prepared to get him right now. You can press charges. We can arrest him.’”He continued, “They were laying out the options, and as they were talking, Chris was being very dismissive of those options. He was like, ‘No, I’m fine.’ He was like, ‘No, no, no.’ Even to the point where I said, ‘Rock, let them finish.
This interview will mark Packer’s first public comments about the incident that remains a major topic of debate. Shortly after the telecast ended, On Wednesday, the Academy stated that “disciplinary proceedings” against Smith had begun, which could lead to “suspension, expulsion, or other sanctions permitted by the Bylaws and Standards of Conduct.”
In this latest statement, the Academy also said Smith had been asked to leave the show but refused. However, sources close to the situation told On Sunday, Rock was about to present the Oscar for best documentary when he made a joke about Smith’s wife, , that seemingly referenced her shaved head. Smith took to the stage and slapped Rock before apologizing to the Academy a short time later during his best actor acceptance speech, during which he did not mention Rock. actor called his actions “unacceptable and inexcusable,” in addition to apologizing to the comedian.
Rock kicked off his stand-up comedy tour Wednesday in Boston, where he began his show by saying he is “still kind of processing what happened.”
Would have been something if they came up on stage and did it during his acceptance speech
🤷♀️🤷♀️
police were prepared to arrest they were going to kick him out they were going to ban him they were going to take his award away I see a lot of 'well uhh..we thought about it' but nothing actually happened. What's the point of all these different takes?
And yet nothing happened. Let's stop protecting these celebs that think they above the law. They aren't real superheros, they aren't untouchable and yet they still get away with things like assault even when there are 15million witnesses. SMH DISGUSTING
Cops might allow rape kits to sit until they expire. They might run away from school shootings while children inside are killed. But rest assured, whenever an actor gives a weakhanded slap to someone on stage, America’s finest will be there
This is yet another situation where the police failed to protect the rights of an African-American male.
¿?
It wasn't fair... He was protecting jada only a real man can do that
Official music video is out now!!!
