Jada Pinkett Smith Opens Up About Will Smith's Controversial Actions

Jada Pinkett Smith reveals in an upcoming interview with Hoda Kotb that Chris Rock apologized to her offstage after Will Smith slapped him at the 2022 Academy Awards. Pinkett Smith shares that Rock said, "Jada, I meant no harm," but she was preoccupied with her husband's anger and couldn't fully process the apology. She also addresses the public response to Smith's behavior, stating that the blame placed on her was influenced by a false narrative created on her canceled Facebook Live series, "Red Table Talk." The full interview airs on October 13.
