Los Angeles: In a wild and what appeared to be an unscripted moment at the Oscars, Will Smith strode to the stage and landed a punch on Chris Rock after the comedian cracked a joke about the Hollywood star’s wife Jada Pinkett-Smith.
Smith later won the best actor Oscar for his role in biographical drama “King Richard”.
The exchange started when Rock came on stage to announce the winners for best documentary feature award.
Before revealing the winner, Rock decided to land a joke on Pinkett-Smith, saying that she could star in the sequel to “G.I. Jane”, to which she was seen rolling her eyes.
The joke was in reference to Pinkett-Smith’s shaved head because of autoimmune disorder alopecia but it didn’t go down well with Smith, who went up to the stage and punched Rock, leaving everybody in attendance shocked over the events.
After receiving the jab from the actor, Rock said, “Wow. Will Smith just smacked the st out of me.”
Once he reached back to his seat, Smith shouted at Rock, saying, “Keep my wife’s name out of your fking mouth!”.
