Chris Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith‘s shaved head, which did not appear to go over well with her husband Will Smith.
Smith said twice during the incident, according to Elam, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f***ing mouth!”
Sean “Diddy” Combs took to the stage moments later and told Smith and Rock that they would settle things “like family” later.
Roughly 40 minutes after the incident, Smith returned to the stage to accept the Oscar for best actor and apologized to the Academy and his fellow nominees for the incident, but did not mention Rock by name.
Smith also talked about being a “protector” and thanked the tennis legends and their family.
