In a truly shocking moment, Will Smith just smacked Chris Rock in the face after the comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith at The Oscars.
Chris was up on stage Sunday presenting for Best Documentary, but before he started naming the nominees ... he was firing off zingers to the crowd, and eventually landed on Will and Jada Pinkett Smith.
Chris made a comment about Jada's shaved head ... saying he couldn't wait to see 'G.I. Jane 2' -- which got some groans from the crowd, to which he just sorta shrugged off.
Chris didn't think he'd crossed a line, but Will clearly did ... because he stormed the stage and literally socked the dude in the face. A stunned Rock exclaimed, "Wow. Will Smith just smacked the #### outta me."
The American broadcast on ABC muted, and even froze, but in other countries it continued ... and Will shouted "Keep my wife's name out your #### mouth" twice to Chris.
Chris eventually gained his composure again and carried on with handing out the Oscar, but the room was left tense with a sense of unease.

If I hadn’t Googled her I would not have needed to. Yuo were spot on.
every actor should smack the host after an insulting joke
thats what i call good tv
You're Will Smith, and you want to discipline / punish Chris Rock for making an off-colored (or hurtful) joke? A joke with the official sanction of the Academy Awards show?
You take your wife and family and immediately and quietly leave the venue.
Chris Rock would have profusely apologized, but would still never have heard the end of it.
Even better that Will Smith would then not have been present to pick up his award!
Regards,
why didnt jada smack him?
But in the case of the Smiths, there is absolutely no need to speculate: They go on talk shows and wash their dirty laundry in front of national audiences.
Regards,
That is the question of the century and has occupied my mind for days, along with thoughts about where b Flavor Flav?"
chris’ response: wow i just got bitch slapped by a cuck
That’s funny... Will doesn’t mind what his wife puts in her mouth.
#OscarsSoGhetto. I guess Chris Rock found out he can’t be Don Rickles in the thug life world. Chris inadvertently entered into a real-life version of his “.....s have got to go” skit.
Thespian justice.
You can defile his wife but dont tell a joke
Fake fake fake
Scientology is pretty violent
No doubt Smith is cool with that...
Chris Rock should have just called Will a cuck. But then Jada probably would have slapped him.
This can go two ways - both at extreme opposite of each other.
For the Oscars it could revive interest in the telecast since it is live people will watch to see if anything “exciting” happens.
Or it will be pointed to as the moment The Oscar lost all relevance in our society. The day “ghetto” values took over the once classic event.
Sounds like Willie Boy had security issues about his wife...😎
Will Smith should have been downtown under arrest for assault. There is no defending this Black on Black violence, even Dan Bongino said he was O.K. with it, put me in the opposite camp. No excuses for physical assault Live on stage at the Oscars. I guess you can take the Oscars out of Compton, but you can’t take Compton out of the Oscars.
I think the "percentages" of participants hardly resembles our nation. This is what you get, Black on Black violence and nothing happens. Is it really accepted?
With almost nothing but Ukraine in the news, this was a cheap publicity stunt to get attention for Will and the Oscars. Not even security guards showed up as far as I could tell. People have been arrested for less.
