The slap seen around the world

Chris Rock is a comedian who tells jokes. Often about other celebrities. Jokes can fall flat, even go bad. His “G.I. Jane” joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair loss (she has alopecia, see story here) triggered Will Smith, her husband. Watch what happened next in the first video below. Minutes later, Smith won the Oscar for best actor. Now there are calls to strip him of that honor (see story here). Listen to his emotional acceptance speech, and attempt at damage control, in the second video. None of this was scripted, staged, or acted; this is real life in real time.
