re: Will Smith did not truly slap Chris Rock, it was totally staged.

To that end, it's ridiculous that anyone is taking Will Smith's side. Chris Rock is a standup comedian. We can't allow comics to get smacked every time they say something offensive


This part is hilarious to me as well. Rock is an old pro. On what universe is he going to make it more dangerous for every other stand up comedian to do their job by willingly participating in a stunt where he allows an audience member to walk up on stage and assault him over a joke? For what...a little publicity or pocket change?

This is why Rogan was pissed about what had happened. It's why Jim Carey was. It's why Tim Allen has said something. I'm sure many others have as well. There's zero chance that Chris Rock allowed this on simply stand up code alone.

Pretty good breakdown of the fake slap

Also Will Smith literally has a video coaching on the fake slap.

Those are the same terrible points I've already refuted for two days now.

So which is it...did he fake slap him or was the entire thing fake...? In your above link he talks about how he thinks that Smith didn't hit him that hard, so clearly this link means nothing to this argument.

The thing is...I could be easily convinced that this was all fake. If the people involved admitted it was fake, or someone close to it gave it all away, I'd be happy to eat some crow and say I got duped and move on with my life. It's fairly clear by the fact that nothing so far has remotely moved you guys from your position...meaning this is one of those great conspiracies where even evidence which seems to prove it's real is clearly just there to continue the conspiracy.

It's unfalsifiable for you guys, which is one hell of a position to argue.

What the hell would be the motivation to fake that shite? I'm having trouble seeing the upside for anyone involved.

Yup. Amazing how gullible some people are. They probably believe Jussie too.

What is amazing is how stupid people are that actually need this type of explanation.

A man with half a brain and one leg can see this is staged.

Let’s here the reasons for it. Why haven’t they admitted it yet?

You can argue that it was real, but not intelligently.

In the threads about this there are comments that enable you to see that it was staged.

The only somewhat legitimate defense I see for it being staged is improving ratings and Chris rock getting some more tickets sold

The defense for it being real has a dozen or so more reasons

So I guess Will Smith was crying for no reason in his acceptance speech. He realized at that point what a fool he made of himself. If it was fake, which it wasn't, both deserve an Oscar for their performance.

Chris showed no trauma from the slap, one side of his face would be noticeably red or effected by the slap but was not


Uhh, you do realize Chris Rock is black, right?

So you think Chris Rock and Will Smith WANTED that embarrassment to the Black community? Both have been about as anti anything like that as could possibly be for their entire careers for that very reason. It was not staged. Will Smith just reached a boiling point with his wife publicly humiliating him, his feelings of cowardice from when he was a child and witnessed his father beating his mother without action. This was him boiling over at the worst possible moment of any point in his entire career. There are a ton of people out there that looked up to Will that are ashamed of this event. No. It was not staged.

Will smith is on the verge of being voted out of the Academy … so I’m pretty sure this wasn’t planned
