Major League DJz React To Will Slapping Chris Rock At The Oscars Over The Weekend

Major League DJz React To Will Slapping Chris Rock At The Oscars Over The Weekend. African Dance music duo that consist of twin brothers born in America, but raised on South African soil.

Will Smith slapped Chris Rock in the face on stage at the Oscars after the comic made a joke about the actor’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith.”Jada, can’t wait for GI Jane 2,” he said, in an apparent reference to her shaved hairdo – a result of the hair loss condition alopecia.Smith walked on stage and struck Rock before returning to his seat and shouting: “Keep my wife’s name out of your [expletive] mouth.”

While the scene caused a stir on the internet, Major League DJz are some of those who had something to say about Will. In a post they made, the duo shared a meme of a guy writing down something and they accompanied the meme with: “Trevor Noah and other comedians removing Jada Smith jokes on their list.. #Oscars.”

Will later apologised to the Academy.In a tearful acceptance speech for best actor, he also said he wanted to apologise to all his fellow nominees. There was no specific apology for Rock. The star picked up the first Oscar of his career for playing the father of tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams in King Richard. “Art imitates life,” he said. “I look like the crazy father, just like they said about Richard Williams. But love will make you do crazy things.”

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which organises the Oscars, tweeted that it “does not condone violence of any form”.

Rock’s joke referred to 1997 film GI Jane, in which Demi Moore played the title role with a severe buzzcut. Pinkett Smith rolled her eyes at the comment, while Smith appeared to initially laugh and clap his hands before he was seen on stage, walking up to Rock.The comedian looked stunned in the immediate aftermath of the incident, but told the audience: “That was the greatest night in the history of television.”
