Comedian Wanda Sykes remembers Will Smith’s Oscars slap of Chris Rock well, and she thinks even Troy Kotsur, the deaf actor who won Best Supporting Actor for “CODA” last year, heard it.But did she really need to go there with it?The actress, who hosted last year’s ceremony, appeared on the 100th episode of the Sherri Shepherd Show Friday to discuss her comedy career, retirement and more. Shepherd asked her about Rock’s live comedy special coming out Saturday on Netflix.“We love Chris Rock. You have a close relationship with Chris, but are you happy that this special is coming out?” Shepherd asked Sykes.
“The Oscars are coming next weekend, so do you think that it’s really important that his special is coming out right before the Oscars? Because you hosted last year.” Sykes responded by alluding to Smith’s slap of Rock after the actor and comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith that referred to her bald head. Very shortly after Smith slapped Rock, he won the Oscar for Best Actor for portraying Richard Williams, father of tennis champions Serena and Venus Williams in “King Richard.”“I saw it. I heard it.
We all heard it,” Sykes said. “Even the dude from ‘CODA’ heard it.” “So it’s good that this is coming out now [before the Oscars]?” Shepherd asked again.“Right. I’m so excited,” Sykes said.
“The timing couldn’t be better.”Sykes also expressed how happy she is for Chris.“Chris, to me is the best one working right now. He’s the best. So I just love when he gets on that stage and shows everyone why he is a GOAT.”Sykes and Shepherd also talked about “History of the World Part II” which Sykes executive produces.

the 2023 Oscars -- it's impossible not to think back on last year's Academy Awards, which honored plenty of impressive achievements in film, but was overshadowed by the now-infamous incident in which Will Smith stormed the stage to hit Chris Rock in the face over a joke Rock made about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.The moment was the most jaw-dropping awards show incident since the Best Picture mixup of 2017, with many in the room wondering if it was a staged bit, before the uncomfortable silence stretched into realization. Later in the show, the awkward tension was compounded by the fact that Smith won the Oscar for Best Actor — for his title role in the Williams' sister biopic, — and took the stage once again, this time with a mix of joy and tearful apology.As Chris Rock prepares for his history-making live Netflix special,, it's expected that he'll address the incident at length for the first time publicly, as part of the standup set.
