I agree that’s the case with regular people in life. But when you choose to be a public figure and expect regular people to patronize your product you don’t owe them an explanation but it’s probably in your best interest to give them one if you want them to continue to support you. But he chooses not to don’t complain in your career struggles. Just like if you have a job and you choose to slap a coworker. Your job will probably ask for an explanation. You can chose not to give one but don’t complain if they fire you. Your job pays you they can take that money away. Will smith’s fans pay him, they can also take that money away.

Sorry Stevie, An explanation is not necessary. It was an irrational act. How can that be adequately explained? Will did much more harm to himself than to Chris. Let him be.

It was irrational. I agree. However, it was calculated. He knew he was bigger and stronger than Rock. That is why he did it. If it was someone his size he MIGHT told them to keep jada out their mouth . . . from his SEAT! He would not have gone to slap someone bigger! It was irrational, but it was calculated. He thought he could slap a smaller man and not face any physical price.

So I am a Will Smith fan, and I am also a Chris Rock fan, and the only person that is owed an apology, is Chris Rock. So Will Smith at the event where this happened, the Oscars, said in the very moment of how much he regretted what had just happened, and I believe there’s been subsequent efforts on his part to try to mend fences with Chris Rock. So I understand how difficult it is particularly for men to own up to their mistakes, and issue apologies, and for men to accept a generally heartfelt apology, because I think that’s what that was, and unfortunately, the 2 men for whatever reason, simply have not been able to move past this, and come together in solitary, and say, hey, we’ve reconciled our differences, and it’s time to move on and I think until that happens a lot of people are going to continue to take sides, and that is tragic, and so all those who are closely associated with these 2 men who had a moment needs to understand, that until there’s a reconciliation between the 2 of them this tragedy will continue to play out, and I think that’s where I would like to leave this. Cheers 🥂
Ultimately, it’s up to Will to decide if he’d like to explain himself.
Steve should respond to these comments 😂 LOTTA PEOPLE NOT AGREEING WITH HIS WORDS 😂
It's Krazy because chris said he don't wanna sit down with will smith
But it didn't it made a 100 mill goodbye fool

Man nobody gives 2 fu🤬🤬s about what you say or think,from what I’ve been seeing they still love Will😂😂😂
He OWES NO one an EXPLANATION but Chris Rock. Bump YOU!!!!!
Man who cares

Oh shut up. Will smith is one of the best actors of our time. He should not be remembered only as a man who, after being pushed to the wall by Chris R. Continuous jokes on his wife, lost it. It can happen to anyone. He did not kill anyone.
Let him be 😊. But,Trump is acceptable and can run for President with 34 felonies.

Will Smith does not need a sit down on live tv with Chris Rock to make Stephen A feel better. That’s between two grown men. Chris Rock said he’s over it and should be too.
I do not know what happened behind the scenes so I wish Will the best that God has for him
If Will Smith apologizes a thousand times it still would not satisfy people. So glad his movie was a box office hit! Isn’t that something? His movie did better than the movies that were out there! Hollywood loves money so I think they’ll probably be taking another look at this box office guy. So glad for you Will!
You are wrong before I read it. He explained. The movie is GREAT. You are NOT speaking for millions.

No. Completely wrong take. We are all tired in hearing about Jada and their personal life. We know why he did what he did, and while it was not good we are all ready to move on. I am going to see Bad Boys regardless
Let’s extend grace to everyone!
I have to disagree with you on this. Why does he need to have a sit down with Chris Rock? Why? He apologized. The movie after the "slap" did not do well but Bad Boys 4 did fabulous! Who are the millions of people out there? You can't speak for us. If someone stated they are speaking for you, you would not be happy . He has been punished by the academy, lost money etc. Isn't that enough. Hasn't it been 2 years, why are you bringing this up. Is this an old segment from you? If not, what is the point?
Let it go. If anybody should be canceled, it would have been his wife.
An explanation is not required for me. An interview will only bring back more unnecessary conversation. Move on...
Stephen A, if I'm not mistaken....he did reach out to Chris so they could talk and Chris isn't ready to have that conversation yet. Where's the grace that we're supposed to extend to people? We all knew Will not be that kind of person. I don't think he should stop his life until Chris is ready to talk. I'm sure he regrets that moment but we the people has always had a thing for Will because he always appeared to be kind. Let's move forward and let them two find their way back to each others good graces. ❤️

Even Jesus requires repentance for forgiveness.
You're late! He's already explained himself on not one but two shows. Stop promoting for him to come on your show. He's human with emotions, and everyone has a breaking point. You know what he's been through. His life is exposed to the public, including yours when you do wrong or have an emotional or human reaction. Stop the nonsense! Only God can judge, and he doesn't. He's a forgiving God. How dare anyone judge him? The movie was excellent. A+ Rating. Five stars!!! Time has passed. Get over it!

Here’s the thing with people like SAS….he’ll make these “demands” that almost none of us agree with 😂 but if Will had done absolutely nothing that night that jokes flew about his wife?…Stephen A and other nerds like him would say “OH! I would NEVER allow another man to talk about my wife and get away with it 🤓”
stephen A: if you’re black i’m on your side 😂😂😂
He doesn't owe fans an explanation. He might owe his family, Chris Rock, or the Oscar committee an explanation, but he doesn't owe the fans anything.
A grown man hung up on what another grown man did that has nothing to do with him, and still thinks he is owed an explanation for something he has no business being a part of, sh*t Chris doesn't probably cared that much since it happened, this is ridiculous
Nothing to explain we all know why he did that

Cant hold everything against everyone bruh we just cancel everyone? Could be you next
He doesn't have to explain anything to you or even to us. He apologized and if Chris wants to sit down with him, that is a conversation between the two of them. It's none of our business.
How about you use your platform to discuss important topics?! This slap from one man to another over two years ago is old. It’s their business! Accountability was taken and apologies were given so move on and stop trying to speak for other people. You should pray none of your skeletons fall out of the closet and people drag you over them. How about you focus this same energy on encouraging people to take this year’s election seriously? How about discussing Project 2025?
