Jada Pinkett Smith shed light on a new angle to the Will Smith slapping Chris Rock incident at the 2022 Oscars with a hope and belief.

Jada Pinkett Calls for a Reconciliation Between Will Smith and Chris Rock After the “holy joke and the holy slap”

Days have passed since Jada Pinkett Smith
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/jada-pinkett-smith/] blew the curtains off
her marital discord with Will Smith
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/will-smith/]. However, there continue to be
waves as the actress elaborates on the issue in detail. Many interviews and
talks later, first-hand news and variations of Pinkett’s side of the story still
surface with additional comments and inputs from the star. As Hollywood tries to
decode the fallout of one of its strongest power couples, fans try to piece
together the information they have at hand.

In her latest round of talks, the Madagascar actress opens up with a different
take on the infamous slap that her husband rendered onto cinema history back in
2022.


JADA PINKETT BELIEVES IT IS TIME FOR “HEALING” FOR WILL SMITH AND CHRIS ROCK

The 2022 Oscars ceremony saw Will Smith go up the coveted stage twice. Once to
receive the Best Actor Oscar for King Richard and before that to slap presenter,
Chris Rock. Later, the Men In Black actor did apologize to Rock, to little or no
avail. Now, months later and after dropping fresh bombshells, Jada Pinkett had a
belief. A hope that “these two very capable beautiful men at some time figure
out how to resolve this whole thing of the present.”



In her appearance at the Jay Shetty podcast, the mother of two called the Oscar
incident “the holy joke, the holy slap, and the holy lessons.” The remarks come
days after she opened up on being “shocked” at the time
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-jada-pinkett-smith-was-apparently-as-shocked-by-will-smith-as-chris-rock-at-the-twenty-twenty-two-oscars-slapgate/].
Moreover, The Matrix Reloaded actress made it clear that it was “not cool to
like talk about a medical condition.” Alas, she concluded with the hope that the
incident would eventually have Smith and Rock “amplify their love” and resolve
the bad blood.

The interview also had Pinkett open up on her relationship with her kids,
especially Jaden Smith who had once “saved” her life.


JADEN SMITH DID NOT WANT HER MOTHER TO APOLOGIZE

In the same podcast, the 52-year-old actress spoke about her kids: Trey, Jaden
and Willow Smith [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/willow-smith/]. While she
said that Trey had the “ability to meet” and form new connections, her daughter
was a “fireball”. In the sense that Willow was a much more direct person and
would allow the actress to see a reflection of herself in her. Finally, Pinkett
spoke of her youngest son as “a walking joy”.



Jaden Smith is a successful entrepreneur inspired by Elon Musk
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-the-way-elon-musk-has-done-back-when-a-twenty-three-year-old-jaden-smith-revealed-how-the-now-twitter-boss-inspired-to-move-his-brand-to-italy/],
alongside being an actor and a musician. Among his many acts of love, one was
when he told his mother, “You gave birth to me. Don’t ever apologize to me.” The
mother-son’s bond was also spoken of highly before when the actress spoke of the
time she was battling intense depression. The youngster would go on to “save”
her mother by introducing her to ayahuasca therapy.
