Tony Rock Claps Back By Throwing Jabs at Will Smith in Stand Up Revenge Tour

HonkMagazine

Almost two years after the infamous Oscars incident that shocked everyone, Tony Rock is making it clear that he hasn’t moved on. The comedian and brother of Chris Rock recently took to the stage and didn’t hold back his feelings about Will Smith. During a recent stand up performance that has been widely shared online, Tony made a bold joke targeting Will Smith. He said, “I have to get Will Smith. I’m just laying low right now. That stuff isn’t over. The Oscars are right around the corner. We haven’t forgotten.” The audience responded with laughter.

While Chris Rock responded to the slap he received from Will Smith at the Oscars with a calm demeanor, later discussing it in his Netflix special, Tony is taking a more outspoken approach. Tony not only went after Will but also joked about his brother Chris for not avoiding the slap. He said, “He stood there like a lawn jockey,” adding humor to a situation that shocked Hollywood. The original Oscar event in 2022 was one of the most surprising moments on live television. After Chris made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair condition, Will stormed the stage and slapped him, warning, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f—ing mouth.”

This shocking moment stunned viewers, but Chris kept the show moving, saying, “Wow, dude, it was a G.I. Jane joke.” Tony Rock’s latest performance proves that not everyone is ready to let it go. Tony Rock is keeping this topic alive and doing it through humor. As the next Oscars approaches, many wonder if this ongoing drama between the Rocks and Smith will continue. If Tony has anything to say about it, it looks like the laughter (and the jabs) are far from finished.
