In a truly unbelievable moment the the 94th Academy Awards telecast, Will Smith walked up on stage and slapped comedian Chris Rock in the face after Rock made a Gi.I.Jane joke in reference to Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair cut. After the exchange, Smith sat down and yelled to Rock, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f*cking mouth!”
The exchange was edited on the ABC broadcast, but thanks to Timothy Burke, we have the uncensored Japanese coverage via Twitter. You can see it below.
