Chris Rock cryptically claims he won’t address Will Smith Oscar slap ‘without being paid’

Chris Rock drops hints about wanting ‘payment’ before he ‘even thinks’ of mentioning the Oscar slap incident with Will Smith.

The comedian’s comments came during one of his own shows and according to findings by the Palm Desert Sun, he admitted he’s waiting ‘to get paid’.

He was even quoted saying, “I’m OK, I have a whole show, and I’m not talking about that until I get paid. Life is good. I got my hearing back.”

While his cryptic comments have not yet made sense to many of his fans, it is possible that the comedian is hinting toward an exclusive interview, deal or even civil lawsuit.

The entire incident occurred on the Oscars stage for those unversed and ended up headlining the entire event.

Just prior to this statement Rock admitted that he’s still “processing” all that’s happened and according to HollywoodLife, claimed, “I had like a whole show I wrote before this weekend. I’m still kinda processing what happened. So at some point, I’ll talk about that [expletive]. So I’m gonna tell some jokes It’s nice to be out.”
