American comedian, Chris Rock has finally broken silence after he got slapped by Will Smith at the Oscars.
Chris Rock, while reacting said he is still kindda processing what happened.
The former Saturday Night Live star during his recent show was greeted with a long standing ovation as he took to the stage, thanking his fans for their support.
However, the usually-uninhibited funnyman quickly shut down any hopes he would crack jokes about the slap heard round the world to the 3,000 fans in the audience.
“Let me be all misty and s***,’ he said, with tears in his eyes.’I don’t have a bunch of s*** to say about that, so if you came here for that…’ he said, and paused.
“I had written a whole show before this weekend. ‘I’m still processing what happened, so at some point I’ll talk about that s***.
“It’ll be serious. It’ll be funny, but right now I’m going to tell some jokes.’
Twice during the show, a couple of members of the audience shouted: ‘Will Smith,’ drawing a far louder chorus of boos.
