Chris Rock has jokingly compared his slap from Will Smith to last year’s attack on Paul Pelosi.The comedian referenced former US House of Representatives speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband during the Kennedy Centre awards on Sunday (March 19), honouring Adam Sandler with the Mark Twain Prize for American Humour.“Paul Pelosi [is] the only guy who knows how I felt,” Rock said (via USA Today), comparing Will Smith slapping him at the 2022 Oscars to the October 2022 assault on Pelosi. “Just me and you, Paul.”Paul Pelosi suffered a fractured skull after an intruder broke into their home, demanding to know where Nancy was. Pelosi had to undergo surgery following the attack.Both Paul and Nancy Pelosi were present at the Kennedy Centre when Rock made the joke.In Rock’s new stand-up special for Netflix, Selective Outrage, the comedian spoke in detail for the first time about the incident at last year’s Oscars.Addressing his run-in with Smith, Rock said: “Everybody knows it happened.

She started this shit. She said that me, a fucking grown ass man, should quit his job because ‘My husband didn’t get nominated for Concussion’.”The correction was pointed out by Vulture’s Jesse David Fox on Twitter, who wrote: “They fixed the Concussion–Emancipation slip up in the version that’s now on Netflix.”He added: “It makes me wonder if there has been other tweaks!”Speaking about the Oscars slap, Rock said: “Everybody knows it happened.

Chris Rock‘s live Netflix special on March 4, Selective Outrage, has been making headlines thanks in large part to Will Smith.Rock infamously was slapped on-stage live at the Oscars in 2022 by Smith, after the comic made a joke directed towards Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith.
