Chris Rock Academy awards 2022 controversy

Question

Accepted Answer

This time at the Dolby Theatre, the comedian joked about American actor and singer Jada Pinkett Smith's hairstyle. The actor has been open about her struggles with alopecia, a condition in which people lose hair rapidly on their scalp, eyebrows and eyelashes. It wasn't funny at all when Chris Rock said in front of the world audience that he is looking forward to seeing Jada Pinkett Smith in G.I Jane II. He was taking a jibe at her buzzcut, a similar hairstyle had been sported by Demi Moore in 1997 film G.I Jane. Pinkett Smith naturally appalled by the joke was seen rolling her eyes on camera.
