Remember,you had folks on here and twitter saying Jada was foul what she's doing to Will. Not only was calling foul but calling her a bitch including women.
1. Jada threw a fit at him when he threw a birthday party for her.
2. Had their daughter wishing 2pac could make her and Jada happy.
3. Keep talking about 2pac like he's alive or something.
4. Wanted an opening relationship while Will was against it.
5. Kept putting the camera in his face after Will said no.
The list goes on and on but folks is mad about Chris calling Jada a bitch....
Waiting for will to slap shit outta the no name white actor who improvised spitting on him TWICE during a scene in that slave movie...that shit was way more disrespectful than anything Chris said about jada. When is Will gonna publicly smack shit outta that cac?Still waiting for Chris Rock to clap back at Louis CK and Ricky Gervais blatantly using the word n*gger in his face and laughing. That shit was way more disrespectful than a slap.
When does that netflix special come out?
Here’s the irony; Will told that story better than Chris tells jokes. His timing and cadence was impeccable.
I'm 100% sure that's Truth's burner twitter account.
He talked about housing prices in the Bay, the warriors, and J Prince of all people - all of which he has threads on here.
Twitter is the whiniest AF fuck space.

Chris Rock's Outraged Netflix Comedy, Will Smith's Outrageous Slap--and Me
How'd I get to be part of Chris Rock's Netflix comedy special--and what I think about it.
|
Selective outrage is all the rage. You mustn’t cancel Kanye’s tweets but banning books is okay. You mustn’t allow political corruption, but letting George Santos into Congress is okay. You mustn’t eat chicken but trout is okay.
That’s the point of Chris Rock’s new Netflix comedy special, Selective Outrage, which was broadcast live on Saturday, March 4 and which I was part of as a guest on the Show After The Show. We pick and choose what we’re outraged about as if selecting from a cold and congealed buffet of trigger points.
How’d I get there and what does it personally mean to me?
I’m a fan of Chris. Not just his blunt yet incisive comedy, but also his powerful and nuanced acting. His role as the doomed gangster in Fargo was commanding and heartbreaking. I was riveted.
Some comedians’ routines come from personal pain and struggles, some come from witty observation of human foibles and contradictions. Both are equally valid because both tread in the murky waters of our shared vulnerabilities, insecurities, and arrogance. We all wear carefully crafted masks of how we want others to see us and how we want to see ourselves. As with the best artists, the best comedians yank those masks off and make us look at each other and ourselves as we really are, so that in those moments of clarity, we can choose to embrace what we like—and change what we don’t. As with the best of art, those lights illuminate us only briefly before they are dimmed and the comedian leaves the stage.
Jerry Seinfeld and Ricky Gervais, both wonderful comedians, have created stage personas of distant observers who gaze upon humanity with amused disengagement. They do it with amazing wit and insight. And, most important, they are very, very funny.
But Chris brings us a more personal humor, forged in the pain and struggles of being Black in America, of being a Black entertainer, of being a Black parent, and even of being a rich Black celebrity. And, most important, he is very, very funny.
In case you think I’m saying all this just because we know each other, you are wrong. Loyal readers of my Substack and my articles in The Hollywood Reporter know that I have in the past called out famous Black athletes and celebrities, even close friends, when I thought they did something wrong. I would then get angry and hurt calls from them asking why I didn’t keep quiet. My answer is always the same: when someone famous uses their celebrity to promote dangerous ideas in public, the response also needs to be public in order to mitigate the damage.
Last March, when Will Smith slapped Chris at the Academy Awards show, I wrote an article on my Substack called “Will Smith Did a Bad, Bad Thing” which got millions views, my most-read article. In it, I criticized Will, even though I’ve known him for a long time and liked him. But what he did was bad for men, bad for women, and bad for Black Americans. And if Chris ever does or says something that I think is detrimental, I’ll comment on that too.
But I have nothing except praise for Chris’s Selective Outrage. I guess Chris and I have something in common. I write a regular column, “Kareem Reacts to the News,” and Chris does stand-up in which he reacts to the news. We are both outraged by other people’s selective (meaning inconsistent and contradictory) outrage, while smugly confident in our own righteousness. His presentation is funny and mine isn’t, though some say I have a dry, parched, almost desert-like, sense of humor.
I was honored to be part of his Aftershow. I got to bask in Chris’s hard-earned glory without doing anything. Now, go out and watch Chris do what he does best. Your day will be brighter because of it.
Good question. Hard to believe he didn’t negotiate for more, he needs to sic Will Smith on his agent if not.I wonder if this special was part of the $40 million 2 show deal...
Or did have to give Chris a bonus?
Especially as their FIRST live?
Netflix pays a reported $40 million for two Chris Rock stand-up specials

In the years to come, it will all die bc of too many sensitive fags out there. Always looking for something to complain about rather than laugh or not laugh and moving the fuck on
Real comedy isn’t dead, y’all just don’t wanna pay for it. The funniest comedians aren’t famous. Hollywood told you Tiffany Haddish was funny, the world didn’t and she proved it. Jess Hilarious is not-at-all. Kevin Hart isn’t the benchmark, he’s the it guy. Support the up and coming guys. Hollywood never put Patrice on. Who can fuck with him, even dead??? He wasn’t mainstream and was unfuckwittable.
Thanks fir posting this.
You’re right. I was mainly speaking mainstream. But yeah, the underground is where it’s at. Corey Holcomb shows are off the chain and raw as fuck. I wish some of sensitive asses get a chance to witness something like that

Will Smith has reportedly 'tried unsuccessfully' to make amends with Chris Rock
A remorseful Will Smith has reportedly been trying to make amends with Chris Rock after the infamous Oscars slap that occurred last year.
Will Smith Has 'Tried Unsuccessfully to Make Amends' with Chris Rock: He Is 'Still Remorseful' (Source)
After Chris Rock addressed Will Smith, his marriage and the infamous slapping incident at the 2022 Oscars in his new comedy special 'Chris Rock: Selective Outrage,' a source tells PEOPLE that the 'Emancipation' actor has 'tried unsuccessfully' to repair his relationship with the comedian
Will Smith has reportedly 'tried unsuccessfully' to make amends with Chris Rock after Oscars slap
"He is better but still remorseful."
By Jessica WangMarch 06, 2023 at 02:02 PM EST
Will Smith wants to make amends with Chris Rock after the heavily-discussed slap that occurred at the 94th Academy Awards last year.
A source told PEOPLE that the Oscar-winning King Richard star has "felt terrible for so long" for striking Rock onstage after the latter made a joke about wife Jada Pinkett Smith. "He's tried unsuccessfully to make amends in the best way he could with Chris," the source said.
"But beyond that, family is important to him," the source added, noting that Smith "leaned on" family — also comprised of sons Trey and Jaden and daughter Willow — in the aftermath of the incident. "It all has helped him look inside and mature. He is better but still remorseful."
Reps for Smith and Pinkett Smith didn't immediately respond to EW's request for comment.
Rock, for his part, remained publicly quiet in the months that followed after the altercation, but he recently broke his silence in his newly-released special Selective Outrage, Netflix's first live-streamed event. He called both Smith and Pinkett Smith "b----es" and made a joke about tuning into Smith's slave drama Emancipation to watch him "get whooped."
"Will Smith has selective outrage," Rock said. "Everybody that really knows knows I had nothing to do with that s---. I didn't have any 'entanglements.'" The term refers to headlines that Pinkett Smith had an affair with a friend of their son, which the married couple openly discussed during an episode of Pinkett Smith's Red Table Talk in 2020.
"She hurt him way more than he hurt me," Rock continued in the special. "Everybody called him a b---- and who did he hit? Me." He concluded the set, "A lot of people go 'Chris, how come you didn't do nothing back, how come you didn't do nothing back that night?' 'Cause I got parents, that's why. Cause I was raised. I got parents and you know what my parents taught me? Don't fight in front of white people!"
So Jada is a innocent victim in this, she did nothing wrong and Chris is just bullying her?
I think you missed the strike through the equal sign.
