Chris Rock Won't Talk Will Smith Oscars Slap Until He 'Gets Paid'

Chris Rock has shed some light on how he feels about Will Smith hitting him at the Oscars, but says he won't reveal more until he gets cold, hard cash.

According to a report from the Palm Springs Desert Sun, the comedian told a live audience that he would not be talking about the Oscars until he was compensated.

Chris said that he had a whole show and that he was not talking about it until he got paid. Life is good. I got my hearing back.

If Chris means that he is waiting on a network to pay him for a sit-down, then he and his team have already been approached by every broadcast company in the game at this point. Maybe they haven't offered enough?

He might be talking about a civil lawsuit against Will, where he could potentially get paid that way as well.

Chris seems to be in good spirits and carrying on as if nothing has happened. The Desert Sun has more information about what is in the Chris set.

They say he took a lot of shots at politicians, including Hillary Clinton. He made fun of corporations and their diversity initiatives, while also using his family life and being single as an excuse to offend people. The DS says he got a standing O.

Chris is opening up more and more as his tour goes on, and he said he is still processing the smack.

He seems to be finding some humor in the whole thing, or just masking how he really feels with his comedy chops. Time will tell if Chris speaks on this officially.

In the meantime. The 10-year ban that Will was given only applies to his attendance and has nothing to do with eligibility for awards is still dividing Hollywood.
