This was after Rock made a GI Jane joke about Smith’s wife, Jada. He got up and went to the stage and punched him in the face. He then walked back to his seat and said, “keep my wife’s name out of your f***ing mouth.”
Of course, tweeps weighed in on the matter.
Denzel Washington is a wise OG for telling Will Smith “at the highest moment becareful that’s when the devil comes for you” 💯 facts. Will and Chris should sort this out… #Oscars #AcademyAwards pic.twitter.com/wgMbDmuOhf

If you think Will and Chris's catastrophe was staged, just wait for Kanye v Trevor Noah at the Grammys coming soon 😅 pic.twitter.com/0V4iowm1fF
