Chris Rock came on stage afterward and alluded to his own recent attack, quipping, 'Was that Will Smith?' (via TooFab)
After the alleged attacker was subdued, removed and taken to a nearby hospital by ambulance, per ABC News, Chris Rock came up on the stage with Chappelle. Rock, who had already performed earlier in the night, quipped,"Was that Will Smith?" Jamie Foxx also purportedly came to the stage to check on Chappelle.
Fans continue to wait for Rock to speak more openly about the shocking attack that rocked the Oscars telecast when Smith walked up to him on the stage and smacked him across the face before returning to his seat and screaming for Rock to keep his wife's name out of his mouth. This came after Rock made a"G.I. Jane" joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith's short hairstyle, referencing the Demi Moore film. He subsequently said that he was unaware she suffered from alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences did nothing at the time, allowing Smith to win a Best Actor Oscar later in the night and offer an awkward apology. He was subsequently banned from any Academy event or program for ten years. Smith accepted this decision. You can check out footage of the altercation and its aftermath below, as shared by fans on-site through social media .
