For the first time, Chris Rock addressed Will Smith’s YouTube apology video.
Chris Rock is using his European tour with Dave Chappelle to address the infamous Oscars slap. Rock took the stage at London’s O2 Arena over the weekend and dedicated the beginning of his set to addressing Will Smith’s viral Youtube apology, which the actor released in July.
“Fuck your hostage video,” the comedian said about the video. Rock went on to talk about the slap, saying, “Yes that shit hurt. He played Ali. I can’t even play Floyd Mayweather.” Rock also called Smith, “Suge Smith” comparing the actor to Suge Knight, the notorious founder of Death Row Records, who is currently serving a 28-year prison sentence for vehicular manslaughter.
