Chris Rock briefly addressed the Will Smith slap during his Boston comedy show, just hours after the Academy revealed that disciplinary proceedings have begon for the Best Actor winner.
According to TMZ, when Rock took the stage at the Wilbur theater Wednesday (March 30th) night, he was greeted by a standing ovation from a sold-out crowd. However, the comedian was prepared to disappoint anyone who showed up to hear about the Oscar incident.
He said, “I don't have a bunch of s*** about what happened, so if you came to hear that, I have a whole show I wrote before this weekend. I'm still kind of processing what happened,” adding, “So, at some point, I'll talk about that s***. And it will be serious and funny.”
