This comes off the heels of the 94th Academy Awards where fellow comedian Chris Rock was slapped by Will Smith after a joke aimed at the eventual Oscar winner’s wife Jada Pinkett-Smith. Smith apologized to Rock on Social Media after the incident. Rock, who performed at the comedy festival earlier in the day appeared on stage with Chappelle saying jokingly “Was that Will Smith.”
