One Of Chris Rock's Will Smith Jokes Gets Scrubbed From His Netflix Special

Chris Rock s live show on Netflix didnt go without an edit to the specials recorded version, according to The Hollywood Reporter .

Rock, who filmed the Selective Outrage special last weekend, went all in on Will Smith following a lengthy period of mostly silence regarding the Fresh Prince actors infamous 2022 Oscars slap .

The comedian, however, didnt accurately deliver one of his jokes about Jada Pinkett Smith , which led to the quip getting cut from a recorded version of the special posted to the streaming platform.

Years ago, his wife said I should quit the Oscars I shouldnt host cause her man didnt get nominated for Emancipation, the biggest piece of shit ever. No, not Emancipation, I fucked up the joke, Rock of his 2016 Oscars hosting gig. But he meant to refer to Smiths film Concussion.

Rock was aware of the later edit, according to the Hollywood Reporter. After initially tripping up, he recovered during the live special.

She started this shit. She said that me, a fucking grown-ass man, should quit his job because, My husband didnt get nominated for Concussion, said Rock, referring to a past ceremony that Pinkett Smith boycotted amid the #OscarsSoWhite controversy.
