Most of these images had to do with the slap itself, but some referenced what could have happened if Chris Rock had made a joke about someone else.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>For example, they quipped that it was a good thing Rock didn\u2019t choose to make fun of Alec Baldwin\u2019s wife, otherwise he could have gotten a harsher reaction than a slap. This of course references the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchinson on the set of \u201cRust\u201d when the prop gun Baldwin was holding fired and struck her.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Now, Baldwin is weighing in on the situation, saying it reminded him of the infamous daytime talk show, \u201cThe Jerry Springer Show.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The 63-year-old \u201c30 Rock\u201d alum took to social media early Tuesday with a message for Rock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI am not reading much about how, or even if, the producers attended to Chris. But I love you, @chrisrock,\u201d Baldwin shared. \u201cAnd I\u2019m sorry the Oscars turned into the Jerry Springer show.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Alec Baldwin saying the Oscars are like a Jerry Springer show just weeks after settling a lawsuit with the man Baldwin punched in the face over a parking spot. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GYOrbzd46M\">pic.twitter.com\/GYOrbzd46M<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Emily Miller (@emilymiller) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/emilymiller\/status\/1508614259789516806?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 29, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>Baldwin wasn\u2019t the only celebrity expressing his shock and disgust over the incident between Smith and Rock, however, some social media fans pointed out the hypocrisy of the actor commenting on lashing out physically after getting upset. They mentioned how Baldwin recently settled a court case with a man who sued the actor for allegedly beating him up <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/alec-baldwin-arrested-punching-man-paul-bois\"><span>during a fight over a parking spot<\/span><\/a><span> three years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Wojciech Cieszkowski accused the actor of assault and slander, saying the \u201c30 Rock\u201d alum punched him in the jaw and shoved him in 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAlec Baldwin saying the Oscars are like a Jerry Springer show just weeks after settling a lawsuit with the man Baldwin punched in the face over a parking spot,\u201d journalist Emily Miller <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/emilymiller\/status\/1508614259789516806\"><span>shared<\/span><\/a><span> on Twitter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It\u2019s also worth noting that Baldwin\u2019s temper has gotten the better of him multiple times. The actor stands accused of assaulting photographers on multiple occasions and was even kicked off an American Airlines flight in 2013 when he refused to turn off his cell phone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>As for the slap, Smith issued a formal apology last night.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cViolence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive,\u201d the 53-year-old actor shared on Instagram. \u201cMy behavior at last night\u2019s Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable. Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada\u2019s medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris,\u201d he continued. \u201cI 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.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI would also like to apologize to the Academy, the producers of the show, all the attendees and everyone watching around the world,\u201d he concluded.\u00a0 <\/span><span>\u201cI would like to apologize to the Williams Family and my King Richard Family. I deeply regret that my behavior has stained what has been an otherwise gorgeous journey for all of us. I am a work in progress.
