\n\tDave Chappelle<\/a> calls it \u201cone of the craziest things I have ever seen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe is speaking, in fact, in regards to the notorious Will Smith\/Chris Rock Oscars confrontation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tLike many, Chappelle wasn\u2019t certain what he was watching. He thought it was \u201cfake,\u201d and he \u201cwaited 30, 40 minutes\u201d earlier than calling Rock to seek out out what actually occurred.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI called him on FaceTime, and he picked up,\u201d Chappelle shared. \u201cSoon as he picked up, he said, \u2018Yous the only n***a I\u2019d answer the phone for.\u2019 Apparently, Obama and Oprah, everybody called this n***a to see if everything\u2019s all right.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAnd I thought it was fake. I didn\u2019t know,\u201d he continued. \u201cSo I asked. I go, \u2018Well, you know.\u2019 He said, \u2018What?\u2019 I said, \u2018Did it hurt?\u2019 He said, \u2018Yes, n***a, it hurt.\u2019 And then I knew it was real. And then, and only then, was I offended.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tChappelle was offended how \u201cWill just sat down and enjoyed the rest of his evening. It was crazy. What the f**k is this?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe associated the incident to his personal on-stage assault on the Hollywood Bowl that very same yr, when he was tackled by an viewers member who ran onstage throughout his efficiency.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFor a homeless guy, this n***a had incredible seats,\u201d Chappelle quipped. \u201cJamie Foxx was the first motherf**r <\/strong>that jumped out of the crowd. He was wearing a white cowboy hat like he knew this s**t was going to happen to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe continued, \u201cEvery celebrity just ran out because every celebrity saw themselves in me, and they just started beating the f**k out of that kid. And I know Chris was backstage looking like, \u2018Nobody helped me.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tChappelle then described what would have occurred had Smith attacked him. \u201cI do now know what Will Smith<\/a> would not have done, and that is enjoy the rest of his evening.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
