However, his family members aren\u2019t being shy about voicing their thoughts. Most recently, Rock\u2019s mother Rosalie \u201cRose\u201d Rock shared her thoughts in an interview with South Carolina news station WIS-TV.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWhen Will slapped Chris, he slapped all of us,\u201d the 77-year-old South Carolina native <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.live5news.com\/2022\/04\/22\/wis-exclusive-chris-rocks-mom-reacts-oscars-slap-when-will-slapped-chris-he-slapped-all-us\/\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span>. \u201cBut he really slapped me. Because when you hurt my child, you hurt me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>When asked what she\u2019d say to Smith given the chance, Rock\u2019s mom didn\u2019t mince any words.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI have no idea what I would say other than, \u2018What in the world were you thinking? Because you did a slap, but so many things could have happened from that,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cChris could have stepped back and fallen, and you really could have gotten taken out in handcuffs. So, you didn\u2019t think.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Rock\u2019s brother had previously shared his thoughts on the matter. Kenny Rock, who is a 42-year-old actor, told the Los Angeles Times that he wasn\u2019t watching the Oscars live when Smith slapped his sibling on national TV. Watching the footage over and over was especially difficult for him to handle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIt eats at me watching it over and over again because you\u2019ve seen a loved one being attacked and there\u2019s nothing you can do about it,\u201d Kenny <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/chris-rocks-brother-kenny-says-oscars-slap-eats-at-him-you-just-had-no-respect\"><span>told<\/span><\/a><span> the publication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cEvery time I\u2019m watching the videos, it\u2019s like a rendition that just keeps going over and over in my head. My brother was no threat to him and you just had no respect for him at that moment. You just belittled him in front of millions of people that watch the show,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Smith has experienced significant backlash since the incident. He resigned from the Academy and apologized in early April.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cMy actions at the 94th Academy Awards presentation were shocking, painful, and inexcusable,\u201d the \u201cKing Richard\u201d actor said in part, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/heartbroken-will-smith-announces-hes-resigned-from-the-academy\"><span>according to<\/span><\/a><span> The Daily Wire. \u201cThe list of those I have hurt is long and includes Chris [Rock], his family, many of my dear friends and loved ones, all those in attendance, and global audiences at home. I betrayed the trust of the Academy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI deprived other nominees and winners of their opportunity to celebrate and be celebrated for their extraordinary work,\u201d Smith continued. \u201cI am heartbroken. I want to put the focus back on those who deserve attention for their achievements and allow the Academy to get back to the incredible work it does to support creativity and artistry in film. So, I am resigning from membership in the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and will accept any further consequences the Board deems appropriate.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
