Actor and model Jaden Smith, 23, eldest son of Will Smith, 53, and Jada Pinkett, 50, took to his Twitter account to show support for his father, who, during the 2022 Oscars ceremony, slapped his face. face of actor and comedian Chris Rock, 57.
“And that’s how we solve things,” he wrote in the early hours of Monday (28). Although not directly referring to the father, who won the Oscar for best actor for “King Richard: Coaching Champions”, the tweet was taken by responses with videos of the moment.
The slap came after Chris Rock joked with Will Smith’s wife, joking about her appearance by saying she looked like a character from “GI Jane 2”, who is bald. Jada suffers from alopecia, a genetic disease that leads to hair loss, and often talks about it on social media.
After the slap, the atmosphere during the ceremony became tense as no one knew if it was a joke or not. After a few seconds, Rock said, “There’s a great live television moment.” Will sat back down and yelled twice, “Get my wife’s name out of your mouth.”
A few minutes after the incident, Will Smith won the Oscar for best actor for “King Richard”. In the category, names like Benedict Cumberbatch, Denzel Washington, Andrew Garfield and Javier Bardem competed.
In his speech, the actor said that Richard Williams was a “strong supporter of his family” and later apologized to the Academy and the audience, saying he wanted to be a recipient of love. “Love makes you do crazy things,” he added.
Will and Jada have been married since 1997 and are parents to Jaden and Willow, 20. In October 2021, the actress revealed details of her sex life with her husband in an episode of her show “Red Table Table”, which featured a guest appearance by Gwyneth Paltrow.
“It’s hard,” she began about her sexual routine. “We all started this very young, at the age of 22. I think you expect your partner to know [o que você quer], especially when it comes to sex. It’s like, ‘well if you love me you should know, you should read my mind’. And that’s a huge trap,” he said at the time.
