Netflix has edited out a mistake made by Chris Rock in his comedy particular Chris Rock: Selective Outrage.
In the particular, the comic addresses the second eventually yr’s Oscars the place Will Smith slapped him within the face onstage.
At one level, Rock claims Smith and his spouse Jada Pinkett Smith had been upset with him beforehand when he hosted the Oscars again in 2016.
“Years ago his wife said I should quit the Oscars, I shouldn’t host ‘cause her man didn’t get nominated for Emancipation, the biggest piece of shit, ever,” Rock instructed the gang in Baltimore, Maryland (by way of Decider).
After naming the incorrect film, Rock rapidly corrected himself, including: “No, not Emancipation, I fucked up the joke. 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 identified 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 in regards to the Oscars slap, Rock mentioned: “Everybody knows it happened. I got smacked a year ago. I got smacked at the Oscars by this motherfucker. And people are like, ‘Did it hurt?’ It still hurts. I’ve got ‘Summertime’ ringing in my ear.”
The comic mentioned he “wasn’t a victim” within the ordeal, including; “You’ll never see me on Oprah crying. Never going to happen. ‘I couldn’t believe it, and I loved Men In Black’. Nope! Fuck that shit, I took that hit like [boxer Manny] Pacquiao. ‘Did it hurt?’ Yes motherfucker, it hurt.”
It was just lately claimed Smith had “tried unsuccessfully” to make amends with the comic following the incident.
