during the oscar ceremony chris rock was
on stage giving a speech
that time he compared will smith's wife
to jada pinkett smith to gi jean
as they both have similar shaven heads
will smith then walked on stage and
slapped chris rock
will smith sat down and told him not to
use his wife's name from his dirty mouth
how dare you compare my wife to gi jain
you need to shut your dirty mouth
people were shocked and the clip went
viral on social media
chris rock continued to speak even after
this
will smith got angry because his wife
has a medical condition and had decided
to shave her head
will smith got angry because chris does
not know about his wife's suffering
however many fans are not sure if this
was real and wondered if the act was
staged
