Fans show support for Chris Rock; The star chooses to not press charges against Will Smith

Will Smith assaulted Chris Rock, the viewers experienced a moment of confusion. During the 94th annual Academy Awards on Sunday, March 27, the comedian made a joke about Jada-Pinkett Smith’s look that made the award-winning actor react violently —although, at first, he seemed to find it funny.

Now that the world has seen the infamous moment when Will gets up from his seat, heads to the stage, and slaps Chris, fans of the involved parties are taking to social media to show support.While many people applaud Smith’s action for defending his wife, Rock’s fans are flooding his Instagram with comments asking how he is feeling, praising him for keeping it cool, and questioning why he refused to press charges against Will.“Pissed off for you!!

You kept it together. True Professional,” a fan wrote on Rock’s latest Instagram post. “Way to keep your cool and show class, Chris Rock! #Breathe,” another person said.

While a third chimed in, saying, “Thanks for going high & maintaining composure. Props to you. Assault is assault. Had that joke come out of Wanda’s mouth, with the same result, security would have had Will escorted out.
