Stars who were both in attendance and watching at home had a lot to say about the drama. Lets take a read at what so co-starts and other celebs had to say from the slap scene that echoed around the world.
Nicki Minaj
“I love Chris Rock. I don’t think he would’ve made that joke had he known what Jada recently shared- but between him & the whole team @ the #Oscars you mean to tell me not ONE of y’all heard this woman just share this heartbreaking story? #ComeOnSon,” the rapper wrote on Twitter. ” …. You just got to witness in real time what happens in a man’s soul when he looks over to the woman he loves & sees her holding back tears from a “little joke” at her expense. This is what any & every real man feels in that instant. while y’all seeing the joke he’s seeing her pain.”
Janet Hubert
“There is only so much one can take… sometimes you have to slap back,” the actress, who portrayed Aunt Viv on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, tweeted. “Celebrate the win… nothing else matters. Both actions were incorrect but Chris didn’t need to go there.”
Tiffany Haddish
“I think Chris was messy. As a woman who had a husb, I wish my husb wld have stood up 4 me the way (Will) stood up for (Jada),” the Girls’ Trip star told the Los Angeles Times.
“That’s what every woman wants, right? She was hurt. And he protected his wife. And that’s what a man is supposed to do.”
Jaden Smith
Jaden Smith has a pretty straightforward and clear take on his dad Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. “And That’s How We Do It,” Will and Jada’s son tweeted in response.
Cardi B
The “WAP” rapper wrote on twitter:
“At your highest moment …be careful that’s when the devil tries to come for you, echoing Denzel Washington’s own comments to Smith.
However violence is never the answer!
