(CNN) — Jada Pinkett Smith spoke for the first time since the controversy at the Oscars in which her husband Will Smith abofeteó a Chris Rock for joking regarding her.
“This is a season of healing and I’m here for it,” dijo Pinkett Smith.
The “Matrix” star has been at the center of controversy since Rock, during his Academy Awards performance on Sunday, joked regarding his shaved head.
“Jada, I love you, ‘GI Jane 2,’ I can’t wait to see it,” Rock said.
In the movie “GI Jane”, the star Demi Moore shaves her head.
Will Smith was offended by the joke as Pinkett Smith suffers hair loss due to alopecia.
Smith ran up on stage and slapped Rock across the face, before returning to his seat and yelling at Rock, “Keep my wife’s name out of your fucking mouth!”
Smith issued an apology to Rock on Monday in a statement posted on social media.
