Chris Rock's may have landed himself in hot water with Oscar bosses as his joke about Jada Pinkett Smith was reportedly unvetted before the live show.
The comedian, 57, was slapped in the face by Jada's husband Will, 53, after he stormed on stage when Chris jokingly compared her haircut to G.I. Jane.
A source told Us Weekly that Chris initially rehearsed his speech with no mention of Jada. The insider added: 'Will was not in attendance for [the] rehearsal.'
While on stage, Chris said: 'Jada, GI Jane 2, I can't wait to see it', which prompted Will to step on stage and slap him before he shouted: 'Keep my wife's name out of your f******g mouth'.
Jada has been open about her struggle with hair loss due to alopecia. In December she posted a video where she pointed out a patch of baldness.
Now at this point, I can only laugh. Y'all know I've been struggling with alopecia and just all of a sudden one day, look at this line right here,' she said in the Instagram clip.
'Now this is going to be a little bit more difficult for me to hide, so I thought I'd just share it so y'all not asking any questions — but you know, mama's going to put some rhinestones in there, and I'm going to make me a little crown.'

Squirt, squirt, squirt. They’re gonna milk this thing as long as they can.
Oh Noes! The drama!
Hey world! Look over here!
No such thing as bad publicity.
Who cares.
Will Smith is a cuck, his wife bragged about cheating a year or so back and his kid wears dresses and pretends to be a girl.
“No such thing as bad publicity.”
Exactly! Eespecially in Hollywood.
That was great. You know that his face was hurting and was trying to make a joke about it. Then he was told to keep his wife’s name out of his mouth. Now I am guessing if he wants, rock could sue him and have him jailed..
A comedian goes off-script with an ad lib that might not have been in good taste. Stop the presses!
fake news. it was a fake slap best i can tell. very good acting.
Yo’ fault! No! Yo’ fault! Yo’ fault! Yo’ fault! No! Yo’ fault! Yo’ fault! Yo’ fault! No! Yo’ fault! Yo’ fault!.. settled.. whites’ fault.

Isn’t this Smith gay a hollywood actor living in make believe world and playing pretend for a living that lets his Son think he is actually a girl??
I love it, the victim becomes the perp.
Guess we know now who is higher up on the Hollywood Totem Pole.
They have to get jokes now? Are celebrities really that delicate? It doesn’t bother Will Smith that much that his wife cats around, but a joke about her hair is a mortal sin? Really glad that I have as little to do with liberals as possible.
Vet, not get.
Rock should have taken a page from Mike Tyson after the assault, a right to the stomach followed by a right uppercut.
Que up Ricky Gervais for every Hollywood Gala, please!
