Although more than a year has passed since that famous slap by international film star Will Smith to comedian Chris Rock, and the organization of another Oscar ceremony and the distribution of his awards, the incident still tops the headlines of news and newspapers, and stories and stories revolve around it from every side.
Recently, Chris Rock’s brother, American comedian Tony Rock, lied to Will Smith’s account, stressing that the latter had not made any attempt to communicate with him or his brother since that slap.
During his appearance on Big Boy TV, to talk regarding his previous friendship with Will Smith, Tony said that the latter took advantage of this matter to lie to people.
Smith had appeared a few days following Chris slapped him, and said that he tried to communicate with him and his brother Tony, with the aim of fixing the dispute between them, and he also appeared later in a video in which he told his fans that Chris Rock did not answer his calls and messages.
But Tony gave another opinion completely contrary to this novel, stressing that none of this happened, and that he did not change his phone number, which Will Smith knows well, which he explained that the advisors of the hero of the movie “King Richard” advised him to lie to improve his image in front of the public.
Tony did not hesitate at all to talk regarding that slap, and regarding his opinion of Will Smith’s allegations of contacting him and his brother, and he said: “This was not true, I think following two nights he said: I contacted Chris, and he did not want to talk, it was not that, he does not condemn I have anything.. I always thought we got along better than that.”
Tony continued his speech that this call did not come from his friend until today, and therefore he never expected it to come, and he also considered that Will’s slap to his brother came as a result of the accumulations that Will Smith suffers from within his family, and everyone knows it.
