Chris Rock opened up for the first time after Will Smith slapped him on stage at the 2022 Oscars.
At his comedy show in Boston on March 30, jokingly asked the audience, “How was your weekend?” according to audio of the show published by Variety.
“I don’t have a bunch of s–t 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,” Chris said. So, at some point I’ll talk about that s–t. And it will be serious and funny.”
Chris is focusing on his business, adding, “I’m gonna tell some jokes… It’s nice to just be out.”
Chris did not file a police report with the Los Angeles Police Department following the physical altercation. In a statement obtained by E! News, the LAPD said their “investigative entities are aware of an incident between two individuals during the Academy Awards program. The incident involved one individual slapping another. The individual involved has declined to file a police report. If the involved party desires a police report at a later date, LAPD will be available to complete an investigative report.”
