don't even know what you mean, but that slap being triggered by something his dad did back in the day sounds like a bullshit reach
Shitting on Jada ≠ shitting on Black women.I get it but all the jada/black woman bashing needed some pushback.
oh I see....this must be your first day on the board...Shitting on Jada ≠ shitting on Black women.
You know? TfShitting on Jada ≠ shitting on Black women.
Did you see that 2 or 3 second clip that appeared to show Will (Oscar in hand) hugging Chris Rock and then leaning in with his hand on Chris’s shoulder listening to Chris talk as Chris wiped away tears?
Looks like the apology may already have happened that same night.
Shitting on Jada ≠ shitting on Black women.
The reason this topic I believe has caught traction is to quote Corey Holcumb Jada ain't the only sorry bitch out here. Can the average man say he's dealt with 3 quality women in his life.
Ninjas are writing excuses for dudes now?
When you incels going to own up to what you did and stop making excuses.
Shit at least let the man come up with his own, smdh.
The trigger wasn't the joke it was his wife's reaction. She was not amused and looked like and in that moment he may have felt like heres another woman he loves hurt and he should do something about that. No one is excusing it... but cats on social media find it easier to believe that a cuckholded Will smith was manipulated by an evil Jada Pinkett...but the idea that Will watching yet ANOTHER woman he loves be hurt by a man (in this case in public fashion) and he's again standing by watching helplessly.....not THIS time. Was what he did excessive? YES..... but clearly he felt the need to DO something.If he actually felt that way he would not have laughed. Regardless of how he felt or what triggered him going full neega is never the answer.
Who was it?That was NOT Chris Rock. Smh.
This definitely has merit and could easily be a life-defining traumatic event.
A powerful and tragic insight is provided by a searing passage in his memoir, Will, published last year. In talking about his complicated relationship with his father, an Air Force veteran and alcoholic who died in 2016, Will revealed an obviously traumatizing episode of his childhood. He described how, as a 9-year-old child, he witnessed a terrible episode of domestic violence:
“I watched my father punch my mother in the side of the head so hard that she collapsed…I saw her spit blood. That moment in the bedroom, probably more than any other moment in my life, has defined who I am.”
Will Smith went on to explain:
“Within everything that I have done since then — the awards and the accolades, the spotlights and attention, the characters and the laughs — there has been a subtle string of apologies to my mother for my inaction that day. For failing her in that moment. For failing to stand up to my father. For being a coward.”
He saw his wife hurt in the moment and decided to do something about it rather than have another shoulda coulda woulda...
Of all the theories why can't this one be a possibility??
This man has a million responses in the 125+ page Will slapped Chris Rock thread and made a WHOLE NEW thread about the same topic spewing the same male feminist rhetoric that Jada and black women are the victims here.
Bruh, we get it... You iron your cape for black women daily. How about you go back to the thread that you decided to branch off from and check the poll to see how people feel about the topic. Your point of view has been exhaustively made. Many disagree. Nothing you're saying here hasn't been said in the other thread, Sevin Kamuels.
Shitting on Jada ≠ shitting on Black women.
Everyone moved past the joke. Chris didn't keep going at Jada. There was nothing to defend. That was not the action of a person who was protecting someone.The trigger wasn't the joke it was his wife's reaction. She was not amused and looked like and in that moment he may have felt like heres another woman he loves hurt and he should do something about that. No one is excusing it... but cats on social media find it easier to believe that a cuckholded Will smith was manipulated by an evil Jada Pinkett...but the idea that Will watching yet ANOTHER woman he loves be hurt by a man (in this case in public fashion) and he's again standing by watching helplessly.....not THIS time. Was what he did excessive? YES..... but clearly he felt the need to DO something.
thats not his explanation.. unless you know more about whats going on Will Smith's head... you can't say how Jada reacted to the joke (as lame as it was) didn't have a trigger effect for him in some way. The speculation is where THAT came from?Everyone moved past the joke. Chris didn't keep going at Jada. There was nothing to defend. That was not the action of a person who was protecting someone.
Right... That's why he takes abuse from Jada and Willow. He doesn't want to see them cry. Thats why August can can put that hoe in the buck..(a.k.a..a situation)This definitely has merit and could easily be a life-defining traumatic event.
they who? cuz the running theory on black social media is jada's evil cheating ass is what caused it.They brought all this up immediately after the slap.
I ain't heard one single reasonable new take for quite awhile
Cause there isn't one.
Because he's full of shit obviously. I'm saying that you need to be protecting someone from something, even if it's a potential insult, to actually be protecting someone. There was nothing to protect Jada from. There were no further insults coming.thats not his explanation.. unless you know more about whats going on Will Smith's head... you can't say how Jada reacted to the joke (as lame as it was) didn't have a trigger effect for him in some way. The speculation is where THAT came from?
Crazy what narratives folks come up with. Even with this one, we can only speculate because we're not in the Smiths home observing their off-camera lives close up. So, we don't know what all ingredients that went into that slap. Yet this theory sounds plausible because it's based on Will's own words. It's a theory though, not an excuse for what he did.The trigger wasn't the joke it was his wife's reaction. She was not amused and looked like and in that moment he may have felt like heres another woman he loves hurt and he should do something about that.

SHE Must Have Something on camera on his Ass!
Will Smith is in an emotionally abusive relationship?
I’m not sure I would call it that.
(CNN) - Will Smith will not be allowed to attend the Academy Awards for the next ten years, as a result of his slapping comedian Chris Rock on-stage during this year's Oscar ceremony, The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences announced in a statement obtained by CNN.
"The Board has decided, for a period of 10 years from April 8, 2022, Mr. Smith shall not be permitted to attend any Academy events or programs, in person or virtually, including but not limited to the Academy Awards," Academy President David Rubin and CEO Dawn Hudson said in a statement on Friday.
