Comedy fans will no doubt recall the backlash <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/i-am-not-bending-to-anyones-demands-dave-chappelle-declares\">Dave Chappelle faced<\/a> for making quips about the trans community. Now, Will Smith has made his stance known on mocking medical conditions \u2013 at least when those jokes are about his wife.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Jada lost her hair due to a battle with alopecia. During the 2022 Academy Awards Sunday night, Rock said: \u201cJada, I love ya. G.I. Jane 2 movie, can\u2019t wait to see it.\u201d This referred to how Demi Moore shaved her head to star in G.I. Jane (1997).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The joke prompted Will to storm up on the stage and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/will-smith-struck-chris-rock-in-the-face-at-oscars-after-he-cracked-a-joke-about-jada-pinkett-smiths-hair-loss\"><span>smack Rock across the face<\/span><\/a><span>\u00a0and repeatedly yell, \u201cKeep my wife\u2019s name out your f***ing mouth!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWow, dude,\u201d Rock replied. \u201cIt was a G.I.
