Tyrese said Will Smith wanted to smack Chris Rock since 2016 Oscars

Last night, Will Smith walked onto the stage and smacked Chris Rock during his monologue. Initially, the moment looked staged, as Chris Rock cracked a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith. Will Smith laughed at the joke, while Jada made a face of annoyance.

When Will Smith was seen shouting from his seat, it became clear the moment wasn’t staged. Furthermore, when Will Smith gave his Oscars acceptance speech, he broke down and cried. Will Smith apologized to The Academy for hitting Chris Rock and said “love will make you do some crazy things.”

According to Tyrese, there was nothing crazy about Will Smith hitting Chris Rock. Instead, Tyrese said that’s something Will Smith has wanted to do since 2016. Tyrese said if anyone didn’t believe him, look up Chris Rock’s monologue, from the 2016 Oscars, where he called Jada out. Jada Pinkett Smith led the #OscarsSoWhite boycott in 2016 and Chris Rock joked that she was upset that Will didn’t get nominated for Concussion. Chris Rock made humiliating comments about Jada, which Tyrese said made Will angrier than most realized. Last night was Chris Rock taking things one step too far.
