A shocking moment occurred during the Academy Awards as Will Smith punched Chris Rock after the comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith making G.I. Jane 2 due to her shaved head.
While Smith was seen laughing at the joke at first, his wife was clearly not entertained. Moments later, Smith got up on stage and punched Rock and then yelled “leave my wife’s name out of your f–king mouth” several times while ABC muted the audio
