Chris Rock isn’t holding grudges.
Despite the infamous 2022 Oscar slap from Will Smith, the comedian says he’s open to hosting the show again.

“You never know,” Rock told E! News at the Vanity Fair Oscars party. “The most miserable people on earth are people that can’t forgive. And not just people, you have to forgive yourself sometimes. So, hey, you never know.”
Rock, who also hosted the Oscars in 2005 and 2016, praised this year’s host, Conan O’Brien. “I thought it was amazing, incredible,” he said. “They should let [O’Brien] host every year.”
Looks like Rock isn’t letting the past hold him back. Would you want to see him return as host?
