Chris Rock has taken the moment Will Smith slapped him across the face in his stride, and has gone on to make light of the situation during a recent gig. The King Richard star, 53, slapped the comedian across the face in March after Chris, 57, made a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith’s shaved head. Soon after, Will won an Oscar for his performance in King Richard – which Academy bosses nearly took away from him.
Chris has remained largely shtum about the shocking moment, but addressed the slap over the weekend during his Only Headliners Allowed comedy tour in New York. Sources revealed to ET Online that the Grown Ups actor made a "joke about Will during a bit about 'cancel culture,' joking that 'anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face’.” Meanwhile, during his Sunday show, he went on to say, as per US Magazine : “I’m not a victim, motherf*****. But I shook that s*** off and went to work the next day.” "I don’t go to the hospital for a paper cut," he added.
Fellow comedian Kevin Hart voiced his support to Chris during his Saturday night gig where he co-headlined.

He almost broke down and cried on stage. It was a real moment.” Following Will’s actions in March, he went on to issue an apology to both the Academy and Chris. Part of it read: "Violence in all of its forms
