Netflix Removes A Bit From Chris Rock’s Comedy Special
WRITTEN BY YASH SINGH
Chris Rock kept mum for a year after the infamous Oscar slap incident involving Will Smith.
A joke about Will Smith from the special has been edited out by the streamer.
he joke was basically an error when Rock recalls a conversation with Smith at the 2016 Oscars.
Years ago, his wife said I should quit the Oscars; I shouldn’t host ’cause her man didn’t get nominated for Emancipation, the biggest piece of shit ever!”, Rock said.
He immediately acknowledged his error and said: “No, not Emancipation, I fucked up the joke.”
Rock was supposed to joke about Smith’s 2015 film ‘Concussion.’ After realizing the error, he continued with the joke.
In his special, the comedian slammed Smith for practicing “selective outrage.”
He also talked about Jada Pinkett Smith cheating on her husband. “She hurt him way more than he hurt me. Everybody in the world called him a bitch“.
