Chris Rock’s 2022 hosting stint at the Oscars got an obscene amount of attention at the time, and now it’s being talked about all over again as the comedian is finally cracking jokes about it. But Rock fans surely remember that this isn’t the first time Rock was involved with drama and controversy while hosting Hollywood’s biggest night.
Besides some vague references to Oscar winner Will Smith storming onto the stage to slap him, Rock hadn’t really dug into the incident until right now. His Netflix special “Selective Outrage” debuted on March 4, just over a week before the 95th Annual Academy Awards premiere. It’s hard to believe that this timing wasn’t intentional.
