Chris Rock performed a surprise set at Comedy Cellar Tuesday night
but kicked it off by telling the audience that he would not talk about the Will Smith slap.
“He literally only addressed it as the the crowd was going wild for his surprise appearance, and he got on stage and said,
‘Lower your expectations. I’m not going to address that s–t,'” an audience spy tells Page Six exclusively.
The star began his Ego Death comedy tour last week and many dates sold out after the slapping incident.
The insider added that Chris joked he was workshopping material because “all the sudden people cared about his early shows.”
“The joke was funny. It wasn’t hilarious funny, but I know that if he knew that she had alopecia … he wouldn’t make a joke about that. But he didn’t know,” Kenny.
