Grammys 2022: Host Trevor Noah joked about Will Smith X Chris Rock Controversy, Fan’s Reaction
3 min readThe 64th Annual Grammy Awards will recognize music luminaries and showcase incredible performances. The musical night was kicked off by host Trevor Noah, who introduced Hollywood superstars, artists, singers, and bands to the audience while mocking the 2022 Oscars. Noah made a joke about the Oscars dispute involving Will Smith and Chris Rock. He stated that the Grammys in 2022 will be about awarding prizes and “keeping people’s names out of our lips.”
What did fans think of Trevor Noah’s prank at the Grammy Awards in 2022?
The conflict between Will Smith and Chris Rock that erupted last Sunday hasn’t faded from the minds of viewers. Fans couldn’t stop talking about Noah’s remark on the incident. Here’s how the internet responded to Trevor Noah’s remark at the Grammy Awards in 2022.
What happened at the Grammy Awards in 2022?
Without a joke about the 2022 Oscars, Noah’s comedic hosting would have been incomplete. Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Grammy Awards when the latter made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s bald appearance. Pinkett Smith’s appearance was compared by the comic to Demi Moore’s in the film G.I. Jane 2. The joke irritated the King Richard actor because Jada’s hair loss was caused by her medical ailment, alopecia. Will was spotted going towards the presenter and slapping him after Rock uttered the joke.
Did Rock file any accusations?
Despite the fact that Chris Rock did not file any accusations against the actor, the Grammy may take action against him. Following the incident, Will Smith resigned from the Grammy. Will Smith was also nominated for an Academy Award for his portrayal of King Richard. During his acceptance speech, Will apologised to both Chris Rock and the Grammy. According to him,” “I would like to apologize to the Academy.” To all of my fellow nominees, I’d want to express my remorse. I’m not crying because I got an award; this is a great moment. It’s not about winning an award for me. It’s all about being able to shine a light on everyone, including the entire cast and crew of King Richard.” Later, he also apologised on social media.
