While addressing the shocking Oscars incident, the 58-year-old comedian said that Smith ''practices selective outrage,'' before he took a dig at Jada and addressed their famous Red Table Talk episode, where Jada sat down with her husband Will, andadmitted having an affair with singer August Alsina.

"Will Smith practices selective outrage," said Rock before adding, "Everybody that really knows knows I had nothing to do with that s***. I didn't have any 'entanglements."

''His wife was f*** her son's friend. Now I normally wouldn't talk about this s**t,'' Rock said, as per Daily Mail.

Further referencing the famous episode of 'Red Table Talk', Chris added, ''But for some reason, these n*** put that sh*t on the Internet. I have no idea why two talented people would do something that f*** low down. What the f**k.''

''We've all been cheated on. Everybody in here has been cheated on. None of us have been interviewed by the person that cheated on us on television, like "Hey I was sucking somebody else's d***, how did that make you feel? Why the f*** would you do that s***?'' he asked.

''She hurt him way more than he hurt me, OK,'' Rock said before he added that how after Oscar's slap, ''Everybody in the world called him a b***.''

Addressing the 'slapgate' controversy and the film, Rock also revealed that he has watched Smith's latest film Emancipation, in which the Aladdin actorplays the role of Whipped Peter or Gordon, a slave. Rock said he enjoyed seeing the actor beaten in the film.

"The other day, I watched Emancipation just so I could watch him getting whipped."

The famous 'slapgate'

Last year, during the Academy Awards, Smith smacked Rock over a joke he made about his wife Jada's bald head. This all happened when Chris took the stage to present an award, and during his brief gig, he made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith's bald head.

His joke probably provoked Smith, who quickly went on stage and slapped Rock. For his violent actions, Academy has banned Will for 10 years.
