At Chris Rock’s latest comedy show, he jokes about the “slap heard around the world.” You know, the one where was on receiving end of a slap from Will Smith at the 2022 Oscars.

The show took place at the Fox theater in Atlanta according to People.com.

“Everybody is trying to be a f—ing victim,” Rock said. “If everybody claims to be a victim, then nobody will hear the real victims. Even me getting smacked by Suge Smith … I went to work the next day, I got kids.” Just for reference, the “Suge Smith” quip is about Suge Knight, the founder and former CEO of west coast label Death Row Record. Knight has a long-standing reputation for aggressive behavior.

Even though Smith issued a video apology for slapping Rock, the comedian and former Oscar host did not address what was said by Smith. Deadline reported on July 29 that the actor finally broke his silence about his actions and how it affected not only Chris Rock, but his wife Jada Pinkett Smith. 

“I was fogged out by that point. It is all fuzzy. I’ve reached out to Chris and the message that came back is that, he’s not ready to talk. When he is, he will reach out. I will say to you, Chris, I apologize to you. My behavior was unacceptable and I am here whenever you are ready to talk,” said Smith.
