Following the incident during Sunday night’s Oscars ceremony, Nicki Minaj has shared her thoughts about Will Smith smacking Chris Rock for making jokes about Jada Pinkett-Smith.
In a series of tweets, Minaj said “I love Chris Rock. I don’t think he would’ve made that joke had he known what Jada recently shared,” she wrote, referencing Jada’s autoimmune disorder.
“But between him & the whole team @ the #Oscars you mean to tell me not ONE of y’all heard this woman just share this heartbreaking story? #ComeOnSon … Here’s the thing… And this is such an AMAZING – EYE OPENING example of it… The husband gets a front row seat to his wife’s pain… he’s the 1 consoling her… drying her tears behind closed doors when those cameras go off.”
Nicki added, “Social media has made ppl feel that these ‘husbands’ won’t ever run into them in real life. You just got to witness in real time what happens in a man’s soul when he looks over to the woman he loves & sees her holding back tears from a ‘little joke’ at her expense.”
She said, “This is what any & every real man feels in that instant. while y’all seeing the joke he’s seeing her pain Imagine what it must feel like to be losing your hair to the point where you have to shave it bald. You think that’s easy to deal with for anyone? You don’t think she’s cried about that many times? 2022 y’all gon have to see these men about those jokes you made about their wives.”
Since then, the video of Will slapping Chris across the face has gone viral and many other celebrities, including Tiffany Haddish, have expressed their feelings about the entire incident.
