Yes he handled it so well and with grace. This young man raised very well. She keep poking at people with the same question for what reason. New host next year
The saddest thing about this whole incident is not Will Smith's actions, the world is filled with people doing stupid things in the moment. The real sad part is how people are twisting themselves into a pretzel justifying it as if there was some larger context in which what he did is "kinda okay".
I don't think Will is sorry at all, I think he sees it from the pov of defending his wife. If people dislike him behind this, then oh well he has done well for himself and owes us nothing.
Most of blame is on Chris he didn’t make joke never happen what’s next comedian making joke about people who die Ukrainian war, and Covid comedians think there funny need stop think about what they say most of time will Chris rock make jokes about his kids if there in same situation

I totally agree smh. It makes me worry for my son,he’s a 10 year old black child,and If will smith can smack someone at the Oscar’s over words,then why shouldn’t I do the same.
but if he said he doesn't condone violence and that he wish his semi boss producer Will didn't resort to that I don't see how that saying something negative.
He supported a man who turned violent over a half dozen words then called it standing up for his family - great family education on international television...
@@alistair7539 Perhaps backstage should have been where Will smacked Chris. BUT nipping it in the bud right then and there, let that be a lesson for the next time someone wants to make insults on someone's medical ailment. Demi Moore shaved her head by choice for a role in a movie. Jada, however, suffered hair loss due to a medical ailment called Alopecia. So I don't fault Will for standing up for his family for such a public insult towards his wife on international television.
@@BBalllegend1000 Her question was vague at best. She asked him about the "Will moment" and he said it was incredible, clearly he was referring to his speech as he went on. He did not play into the hype of the smack. Rewatch the vid.

except no one joked about their relationship. it was an insensitive remark made about her real life medical condition...... let someone joke about your mom's cancer or alzheimer's in front of everyone n let's see your response........
Chris Rock wasn’t joking about his marriage, he was joking about her illness. Could he have handled it better, yes, but he is human and we all have a breaking point.
@@shayarzachary Cancer?! It's alopecia! Lots of people are bald. Will was laughing til Jada gave him the eye and said, "August wouldn't tolerate that!"
@@scottsent8120 So? Once Will realized the reality of the jokes, he defended his wife. And shut up about "everyone is bald". Some people care about their own hair. Just because you don't doesn't mean others don't. So to make fun of someone's medical condition is never alright. To think that it is just throws away your entire argument.
@@scottsent8120 YES, cancer causes you to lose your hair. Alopecia causes you to lose your hair. Both medical conditions. A woman losing her hair due to a medical condition is a big deal. You're daft attempt to graze past the seriousness of this incident is insulting to suffering wise and husbands who just want to protect them from pain.
Like he’s going to say anything negative about Will. Let’s stop asking people who have something to loose if they talk negatively about Will. Smart young man keep it positive.
CHRIS ROCK POT SONG $$ I got out my pipe stuffed it with pot You better believe it held a whole lot. I whipped out a lighter thumbed up a flame Sucked down that smoke which comforts my brain. I tried alcohol smoked cigarettes They did nothing but give me regrets. My mom had arthritis could not walk around I rolled her a joint she danced on the ground. I thought I was losing my lovemaking knack After I smoked some to me it came back. Soon I decided prices were high I searched for some ground I wouldn't have to buy. I bargained for seeds from smokers all around Got in my truck and drove out of town. I walked through the woods where wild birds nest Found me the meadow I thought was the best. I dug up the ground sowed all my seeds Said a small prayer for strong, healthy weeds. I watered at night with a five-gallon pail Mosquitoes went hungry for I wore a veil. Seven months went by; I thought I would die Till the Halloween moon was high in the sky. At night I went out, in a camouflage suit Used my corn knife to chop down the loot. I hung it up to dry where it couldn’t be found. Came back and got it, when it had turned brown. I trimmed off the buds, stuffed them in bags Called all my friends and passed out free drags.

There is no room for physical and verbal assault especially on prime time television broadcasted world wide with hundreds of millions including children watching globally. Whether one is an Oscar winner or a popular celebrity, there must be rule of law and abidance. LAPD enforce the law and demonstrate that no one is above the law. Do not make all those punished for assault feel discriminated. I have been a big fan of Will Smith and bought theater tickets to just about all of his movies. But, his conduct as if he owned the Dolby Theater and the Oscars Award night does not allow him to commit crime of assault on Chris Rock, in front of fellow attendees as well as world wide audience and to damage the hard and outstanding work of Academy productions. He desecrated much more than himself, much, much larger. Will Smith, your violent behavior was far from being the "river of my people" - very far. No more double talks of loving people. Will Smith, you can begin your journey of paying for the crime commited by formally apologizing to Chris Rock, the Academy and the public; second by a court date.
Oh shuttup! Stop thinking wasting tax money on a petty cases like this 😭 they can handle it between them too. Court/ Jail ain’t the solution to everything Eugene.
Imagine being in a open relationship that is nobody’s business because you’re both cheating with each other! Like you people are so dumb they’ve been said they had an open relationship in the 90s and Will Smith has been sleeping with that white chick who plays Harley Quinn and they had a movie focus together like you are so brain dead to think that he doesn’t know what’s going on and he’s bisexual he probably was sleeping with them too!
@@chrisantedevon3518 So, that's it. You didn't have a real father in the home and now you have "daddy" issues. It's tragic that so many Black males have been feminized. How can Black people be protected when so many of our should-be warriors have forgone armor in favor of wearing dresses?
Will overreacted no matter what He could've just expressed his anger from his sit but he decided to get physical....I'm sure Chris didn't know Wills wife has alopecia
He definitely overacted, but when somebody insults your wife, and CLEARLY hurts her feelings, you want to defend her. In the heat of the moment his pride got the better of him. It happens to the best of us. These folks gotta give him some slack. He’s been one of the classiest names in hollywood since fresh prince hit the air.
@@prestonmichael7843 and thts the problem he thinks he can get away with anything, like apparently he could of said worst since jada sleeps around but he went for something pretty tame in comparison and your telling me will couldn’t realize ‘hey I’m on public television where millions of people are watching maybe I shouldn’t act like a highschool kid defending his girls honor” like fuck tell me what did that slap do for his image except for “ will slaps a famous comedian for a bad joke” like seriously lmfao
This young brother has excellent PR (public relations) training. He knew exactly what to say and what not to say. Don’t let the media use your own words against you, messing up future opportunities. 🙌🏾🙏🏾💯🔥
She was messy! She kept trying to get him to talk about the fight indirectly but he curved her flawlessly! Well done! I haven’t seen the show yet but I will!
Honestly I have never liked any of Chris Rock's jokes, BUT Will Smith was totally despicable for assaulting him on the Oscar stage, simply because he didn't like the corny and distasteful joke about his wife. If it was a White comedian, do you honestly think Will Smith would have gotten up on that stage and slapped him, especially with the entire world watching? NO! He would have been escorted out! If it were a white person who he slapped in the face, he would definitely be sued for assault! Black on Black crime/assault it not acceptable, no matter how famous the person may be. And then spewing those F-bombs in that atmosphere was tacky and distasteful! I still think Will Smith is an excellent actor, but he should be held accountable for that damn nonsense! Uugghh!!! Chris Rock, who I have never liked as an entertainer, should be commended for handling that embarrassing situation with class and decorum. Will Smith needs to publicly apologize to Chris Rock or be sued for assault! Period!
You're absolutely right.. Assault and battery is against the law. PERIOD. There are consequences to our actions, what we say and for what we do. Chris Rock jokes for a living, everyone knows this, especially Will Smith.. Don't remember ever seeing Chris attacked over the years for telling a bad joke. Smh🤨
Confused by these comments... people are congratulating Jabari on dodging the interviewer's question instead of just plainly condoning the violence or condemning it 🙄 If Jabari truly had class he would've said he doesn't condone physically attacking anyone but understood Will's anger. His evasion was BS.

but if he said he doesn't condone violence and that he wish his semi boss producer Will didn't resort to that I don't see how that saying something negative.
Exactly. Most ppl are not gonna tell the truth at their job, ppl have bills lol
He maneuvered those questions so smoothly 😂😂
I respect the interviewer for not pushing the question after he said he had no answer
Loving him. "Your crown is always ready the moment you find the courage to wear it".💪
"Don't let the successes get to you head, don't let the failures get to your heart."
Well put.
He said all the right things. Good job young man.👏
He supported a man who turned violent over a half dozen words then called it standing up for his family - great family education on international television...
@@alistair7539 Perhaps backstage should have been where Will smacked Chris. BUT nipping it in the bud right then and there, let that be a lesson for the next time someone wants to make insults on someone's medical ailment. Demi Moore shaved her head by choice for a role in a movie. Jada, however, suffered hair loss due to a medical ailment called Alopecia. So I don't fault Will for standing up for his family for such a public insult towards his wife on international television.
He said assault was incredible?
@@BBalllegend1000 Her question was vague at best. She asked him about the "Will moment" and he said it was incredible, clearly he was referring to his speech as he went on. He did not play into the hype of the smack. Rewatch the vid.
@@RandomNest Wrong. He said "That was incredible, it's like he said, you gotta protect your family, I believe in him and what he stands for."
That sounds like he was defending the assault to me.
I mean.Will is his boss, so he trying to not lose that bread
Man the way he dodged them questions he's the MVP of the night! As he should.
You never go up against the boss publicly or privately... smart man.
I love the support he showed, even if he didn't agree, that will be discussed as family.
My wife is in an open relationship, but its not open for jokes.”
- Probably Will Smith.
except no one joked about their relationship. it was an insensitive remark made about her real life medical condition...... let someone joke about your mom's cancer or alzheimer's in front of everyone n let's see your response........
Chris Rock wasn’t joking about his marriage, he was joking about her illness. Could he have handled it better, yes, but he is human and we all have a breaking point.
@@shayarzachary Cancer?! It's alopecia! Lots of people are bald. Will was laughing til Jada gave him the eye and said, "August wouldn't tolerate that!"
@@scottsent8120 So? Once Will realized the reality of the jokes, he defended his wife. And shut up about "everyone is bald". Some people care about their own hair. Just because you don't doesn't mean others don't. So to make fun of someone's medical condition is never alright. To think that it is just throws away your entire argument.
@@scottsent8120 YES, cancer causes you to lose your hair. Alopecia causes you to lose your hair. Both medical conditions. A woman losing her hair due to a medical condition is a big deal. You're daft attempt to graze past the seriousness of this incident is insulting to suffering wise and husbands who just want to protect them from pain.
I feel like this is the *"Try not to lose your job"* interview 😂😂🤣
No comment. He knows what’s up
Like he’s going to say anything negative about Will. Let’s stop asking people who have something to loose if they talk negatively about Will. Smart young man keep it positive.
This Interview was equivalent to Neo dodging those bullets in the Matrix. “He can’t dodge that one, oh shit he did it again”
Jabari is not fvcking up the bag for nobody.
He cleverly avoided the slap questions
He's taking Will side because he doesn't want to die off the show.😂😂
Plus he knows that shit was raw too raw for today's people that act like that world's ended over a slap
CHRIS ROCK POT SONG $$
I got out my pipe stuffed it with pot
You better believe it held a whole lot.
I whipped out a lighter thumbed up a flame
Sucked down that smoke which comforts my brain.
I tried alcohol smoked cigarettes
They did nothing but give me regrets.
My mom had arthritis could not walk around
I rolled her a joint she danced on the ground.
I thought I was losing my lovemaking knack
After I smoked some to me it came back.
Soon I decided prices were high
I searched for some ground I wouldn't have to buy.
I bargained for seeds from smokers all around
Got in my truck and drove out of town.
I walked through the woods where wild birds nest
Found me the meadow I thought was the best.
I dug up the ground sowed all my seeds
Said a small prayer for strong, healthy weeds.
I watered at night with a five-gallon pail
Mosquitoes went hungry for I wore a veil.
Seven months went by; I thought I would die
Till the Halloween moon was high in the sky.
At night I went out, in a camouflage suit
Used my corn knife to chop down the loot.
I hung it up to dry where it couldn’t be found.
Came back and got it, when it had turned brown.
I trimmed off the buds, stuffed them in bags
Called all my friends and passed out free drags.
In less than a week my crop was gone
I flew to St. Thomas with a love hungry blonde!!

Young man that's not how things should be handled.
There is no room for physical and verbal assault especially on prime time television broadcasted world wide with hundreds of millions including children watching globally. Whether one is an Oscar winner or a popular celebrity, there must be rule of law and abidance. LAPD enforce the law and demonstrate that no one is above the law. Do not make all those punished for assault feel discriminated.
I have been a big fan of Will Smith and bought theater tickets to just about all of his movies. But, his conduct as if he owned the Dolby Theater and the Oscars Award night does not allow him to commit crime of assault on Chris Rock, in front of fellow attendees as well as world wide audience and to damage the hard and outstanding work of Academy productions.
He desecrated much more than himself, much, much larger. Will Smith, your violent behavior was far from being the "river of my people" - very far. No more double talks of loving people.
Will Smith, you can begin your journey of paying for the crime commited by formally apologizing to Chris Rock, the Academy and the public; second by a court date.
lol my guy, go outside and enjoy nature.
Well said. Remember how Smith treated Janet Hubert? Being the "river of my people", he is such a low life hypocrite!
Oh shuttup! Stop thinking wasting tax money on a petty cases like this 😭 they can handle it between them too. Court/ Jail ain’t the solution to everything Eugene.
Are you done? Cause who the hell is reading all of that.
Move on
Love how he handle the questions!!! Right, once your a true fan of Will, always be! Same here.
Imagine defending somebody that cheated on you and embarrassed you on tv
Imagine being in a open relationship that is nobody’s business because you’re both cheating with each other! Like you people are so dumb they’ve been said they had an open relationship in the 90s and Will Smith has been sleeping with that white chick who plays Harley Quinn and they had a movie focus together like you are so brain dead to think that he doesn’t know what’s going on and he’s bisexual he probably was sleeping with them too!
they have an open relationship. never cheating
@@jayjohnson8403 Then explain how emotional Will Smith was at the red table lol
@@Bikinbottommunch you're calling me dumb?🤨
@@Bikinbottommunch my friend thts called an unhealthy marriage, and it is our business the second it hits tv and is known to the world
That media training coming through 😂
He didn't just dodge the question about the slap, he said the slap was incredible! This dude really doesn't want to lose his Bel Air job
He didn't answer the question about the slap. He responded with an answer about the oscar moment.
The Click bait is insane!!! Jabari DID NOT react, he didn’t even wanna comment on the situation. smh y’all love stirring the pot
You’re so quick to defend and praise other blacks aren’t you?
He spun this perfectly. I love him! 🫶🏾💯😂
*Chrisante Devon* Ugh! Who put sugar in your drink?
@@ayeflippum Your father. And he’s so delicious 🤤
@@chrisantedevon3518 So, that's it. You didn't have a real father in the home and now you have "daddy" issues. It's tragic that so many Black males have been feminized. How can Black people be protected when so many of our should-be warriors have forgone armor in favor of wearing dresses?
Will overreacted no matter what He could've just expressed his anger from his sit but he decided to get physical....I'm sure Chris didn't know Wills wife has alopecia
He definitely overacted, but when somebody insults your wife, and CLEARLY hurts her feelings, you want to defend her. In the heat of the moment his pride got the better of him. It happens to the best of us. These folks gotta give him some slack. He’s been one of the classiest names in hollywood since fresh prince hit the air.
@@prestonmichael7843 and thts the problem he thinks he can get away with anything, like apparently he could of said worst since jada sleeps around but he went for something pretty tame in comparison and your telling me will couldn’t realize ‘hey I’m on public television where millions of people are watching maybe I shouldn’t act like a highschool kid defending his girls honor” like fuck tell me what did that slap do for his image except for “ will slaps a famous comedian for a bad joke” like seriously lmfao
@@prestonmichael7843 He deserves no slack. He is a violent ahole.
Damn you people out here looking scary making all this noise from a little slap, is life really that uneventful for you?
@@T1999-c6u so...........and
This young brother has excellent PR (public relations) training. He knew exactly what to say and what not to say. Don’t let the media use your own words against you, messing up future opportunities. 🙌🏾🙏🏾💯🔥
Will: "August got a pass, but Chris I'm slapping your ass" Jada: "That's my little b**ch, don't let that ninja try and diss"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was cold for this interview. I’m bout to go watch bel air RIGHT NOW
She was messy! She kept trying to get him to talk about the fight indirectly but he curved her flawlessly! Well done! I haven’t seen the show yet but I will!
She wasn't being messy. Everyone was being asked what they thought about it.
I happy for him being mature to not fall for it
She tried it with Tiffany Haddish😏😏😏
I see what you did there. 😏
@@DavidKen878 , Yep, it is a talkable subject.....no mess, just opinion, this boy wants his job....
He smacked chris rock because of his wife's hair, now he's moving with his aunt and uncle to the fresh streets of bel air 😭
Hahaaha
LoL yes good one there 😄👍
Honestly I have never liked any of Chris Rock's jokes, BUT Will Smith
was totally despicable for assaulting him on the Oscar stage, simply
because he didn't like the corny and distasteful joke about his wife. If
it was a White comedian, do you honestly think Will Smith would have
gotten up on that stage and slapped him, especially with the entire
world watching? NO! He would have been escorted out! If it were a white
person who he slapped in the face, he would definitely be sued for
assault! Black on Black crime/assault it not acceptable, no matter how
famous the person may be. And then spewing those F-bombs in that
atmosphere was tacky and distasteful! I still think Will Smith is an
excellent actor, but he should be held accountable for that damn
nonsense! Uugghh!!! Chris Rock, who I have never liked as an
entertainer, should be commended for handling that embarrassing
situation with class and decorum. Will Smith needs to publicly apologize
to Chris Rock or be sued for assault! Period!
You're absolutely right.. Assault and battery is against the law. PERIOD. There are consequences to our actions, what we say and for what we do. Chris Rock jokes for a living, everyone knows this, especially Will Smith.. Don't remember ever seeing Chris attacked over the years for telling a bad joke. Smh🤨
Will wouldn't have slapped Chappelle.
Will Smith behaved like the thug he is.
@@scottsent8120 Totally agree. Chris must have felt humiliated. I felt bad for him. He handled it like a professional.
@@minymoe9475 I wouldn't be surprised if it cost him big time in Hollywood, movie offers etc.
She's asking these baited questions just to see if he would slip up. Homeboy handled this interview quite well.
Confused by these comments... people are congratulating Jabari on dodging the interviewer's question instead of just plainly condoning the violence or condemning it 🙄
If Jabari truly had class he would've said he doesn't condone physically attacking anyone but understood Will's anger.
His evasion was BS.
She MESSYYYYYYY….She wanted to hear some drama & he wasn’t having it…CLASS ACT❤️❤️❤️
Lol Great Interview! She tried to make the moment about the slap but he focused on the fact Will Smith was a winner that night! 👏🏽
Well done jabari for keeping level headed and dodging those tricky questions with swag and charisma, they did their best to trip you fella lol
Will smith just started this mans career, he ain’t gonna talk bad about him lmao 😂
I love how he dodged that slap question at first lol props
Lmaoo Jabari is so media trained already 😂💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Jabari is such a class act he handled the interview like a gentleman 😊❤
😎
So far he is truly "90s Will Smithing" 🤷🏻♂
Great answers and way to avoid the slap (several X) convo.
This young brother has some serious PR skills
This young man is great. She wasn't able to drag him into her bullshit. Shut up girl.
That is a perfect example of being ON CODE BLACK PEOPLE!!!!
Yess absolutely CODE BLACK 🖤 !!! Love it
Stay on code at all cost
My man anit tryna lose his job 😂😂😂 that transition was smooth he kept his answer short and kept it moving.
This dude is smooth
He knew what was gonna be asked. LOOL
He tried hard to dodge that question he handled the interview well
