[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 35046, member: 83"] It's been a few months since the slap was heard, debated, and memed all over the world. When Will Smith [URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/will-smith-smacks-chris-rock-for-cracking-joke-about-jada-pinkett-smiths-shaved-head-at-the-oscars-news.149689.html']slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars[/URL] in March after the latter made a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith's bald hairstyle (which she maintained due to a hair loss condition, unbeknownst to Rock), it shocked viewers everywhere. Amid the flurry of Twitter memes and instant reactions, a lot of debate was had concerning the sensitivity of Chris Rock's joke and the justifiability of Will Smith's actions. Finally, after addressing it on social media, Jada Pinkett Smith talked about the incident on the latest episode of her family-centered talk show [I]Red Table Talk[/I]. Contrary to what might have been expected by some, Jada Pinkett-Smith did not apologize or take responsibility for the incident, either on Will's behalf or her own. Of course, she was not responsible at all, but she hopes that Chris Rock and Will Smith "have an opportunity to heal, talk this out, and reconcile" as "two intelligent, capable men." She had just one more thing to say about the slap: she believes both stars are sorely needed considering the state of the world, and that support for one another is more important than ever.
