Chris Rock breaks his silence and asks his fans to give him time

Chris Rock has yet to reflect on what just happened at the Oscars.

Chris Rock broke his silence, and he had no choice, because he had to return to the stage only a few days after the savage attack he suffered at the hands of Will Smith on the night of the Oscars.

Rock was indeed performing in Boston, and the fans present gave him quite a warm welcome.

The comedian, however, warned the crowd that he was not yet ready to address the issue head on, and asked to be patient with him, reports Variety.

“How was your weekend? I don’t have a whole bunch of stuff to say about what happened, so if you came to hear that, I have a whole show I wrote before (…) I’m still kind of processing everything that happened. At some point, I’m going to talk about it, and it’s going to be serious and funny”, a solid but still visibly shaken Chris Rock told the Boston audience.

Actor Will Smith got up from his chair to punch Chris Rock in the face at the recent Oscars after the latter made a joke at the expense of his wife, Jada Pinkett, causing consternation and generating a wave of disapproval in Hollywood and around the world.

Queen Elizabeth has a new original vehicle!

Used to prestigious vehicles, Queen Elizabeth adds a new one to her collection. But beware, it is not what you think…

The British monarch has a collection of vehicles more prestigious than the others. Her Majesty often drives Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Range Rover or Land Rover that she sometimes drives herself.

This time, the 95-year-old queen has purchased a high-end golf cart to help her get around, according to the Daily Mail.

The luxury vehicle was reportedly designed by Danish manufacturer Garia in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz. The battery-powered cart can reach speeds of up to 70 mph and travel 50 miles before recharging. It is equipped with four brown leather reclining seats.

The new special cart is also said to be equipped with 14-inch alloy wheels, a heated windshield, waterproof doors, cup holders, a mini-refrigerator, Bluetooth speakers and a 10.1-inch screen next to the steering wheel.

Queen Elizabeth has had some mobility issues in recent weeks, including during Prince Philips memorial service Tuesday at Westminster Abbey.

Will Smith finally apologizes to Chris Rock for his violent behavior at the Oscars

Will Smith finally apologized to Chris Rock after hitting him at the Oscars, but is it really enough?

It took not only a full day, but also seeing him celebrate his win at the Oscars and then at the Vanity Fair party for Will Smith to finally come to terms with his actions and apologize to Chris Rock, whom he savagely assaulted after a joke the latter directed at his wife, Jada Pinkett.

“Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behaviour at last night’s Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable. Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada’s medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally. I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness”, Smith wrote on Instagram.

At this moment, the Academy has no intention of letting go of the matter, Variety also reports, and will be looking into the incident and what to do next. Surprising, considering these same organizers decided to pretend nothing happened on the sidelines of what clearly turned out to be a live assault on the night of the gala.

As far as potential lawsuits go, neither Chris Rock nor the LADP seem motivated to move forward legally at this point.

Oscars: Will Smith hits Chris Rock and yells at him on stage

A surreal scene at the Oscars.

In a bizarre moment, Will Smith seems to have lost it at the Oscars.

The actor got up from his seat after Chris Rock made a joke at his wife Jada’s expense, and decided to slap him with an open hand that reverberated to the back of the room.

Will Smith then returned to his seat before continuing to yell at Rock from his chair, telling him to “leave his wife’s name out of his f****** mouth.”

Chris Rock, stunned, blurted out:

“Wow, Will Smith just smacked the s*** out of me.”

Stranger still, the gala continued as if nothing had happened afterwards, with a few comments from presenters, including P. Diddy, but nothing more.

Worse, the Academy even awarded the Best Actor Oscar to Will Smith for his role in King Richard moments later!

Smith made an almost incoherent speech, apologizing to everyone but Chris Rock, and trying to link the Williams family and the movie he had just won to his misadventure.

It should be noted that many still believe that this is a stunt given the violence of the case, while others want to see Will Smith face justice for his action.

The Los Angeles Police Department commented, saying that the victim in the case chose not to press charges.
