Will Smith slapped Oscars host Chris Rock during the 2022 Academy Awards after the comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith’s lack of hair, comparing the actress to a character in GI Jane.

Editor’s Note: Sorry. The above sentence should read “Pinkett-Smith has been outspoken about her struggles with alopecia, which causes hair loss.” We apologize for the egregious error and look forward to disappointing you again in the near future.

“Anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face.”
