Jada Pinkett Smith has finally addressed her husband Will Smith slapping Chris Rock to please her at the Oscars in “Red Table Talk” return and according to her, the Smith family has been focused on healing in the heat of the Oscars slap brouhaha.
The New York Post has more;
Jada Pinkett Smith’s “Red Table Talk” has returned for its fifth season — and it referenced Will Smith’s Oscars slap right off the bat.
“Considering all that has happened in the last few weeks, the Smith family has been focused on deep healing,” a title card stated at the beginning of the episode, which was released on Facebook Watch on Wednesday.
“Some of the discoveries around our healing will be shared at the table when the time calls,” the message further read. “Until then the table will continue offering itself to powerful, inspiring and healing testimonies like that of our incredibly impressive first guest.”
The episode then cut to a pre-taped segment featuring Pinkett Smith, her daughter, Willow Smith, and her mother, Adrienne Banfield Norris.
The episode was purportedly taped before the Oscars debacle and included special guest Janelle Monáe
During the ceremony, Rock compared Pinkett Smith — who suffers from alopecia and shaved her head last summer — to Demi Moore’s bald character “G.I. Jane,” prompting the slap from Smith.
“Keep my wife’s name out of your f – – king mouth!” Smith then shouted — twice — after returning to his seat.
A visibly stunned Rock continued with his presentation before leaving the stage. Smith won the Best Actor Oscar a short time later for his role in “King Richard.”
You know Jada is just plotting on when it is the best time to embarrass Will, it is just a matter of time when it happens and will Will allow it to happen. Will needs to take control of his life and he is considering divorce.
