“You can’t do that to a black man as a black man” Stephen A. Smith in complete disbelief as Will Smith slaps Chris Rock LIVE at the 2022 Oscars

Obviously being on stage and not kidding is certainly not a ‘Chris Rock’ thing, so he decided to use Jada Pinkett’ Smith’s bald head as a GIJoe reference. Perhaps even the actress didn’t admire the joke when her reaction was caught on camera. Seconds later, Will Smith took the stage and beat Chris Rock the life out. While many initially thought it was a joke, Will called out to the audience: “Keep my wife’s name out of your damn mouth.”
