Will Smith slapped Chris Rock and everyone made the same Fresh Prince joke

Social media users woke up to the news that Will Smith got in one (not so) little fight at the Oscars last night, and now everyone is making the same Fresh Prince of Bel-Air joke.

The King Richard actor walked onto the stage before swinging his hand at Chris Rock in one of the ‘ugliest moments’ in the history of the awards.

A visibly shocked Rock said after being hit: “Will Smith just smacked the s*** out of me.”

Smith, who was visibly furious, then shouted: “Keep my wife's name out of your f***ing mouth."

It came after Rock began making a GI Jane joke at the expense of Smith's wife Jada Pinkett-Smith, who has battled with alopecia for years.

"It was a GI Jane joke," Rock said, before Smith angrily shouted the same response.

“That was the greatest night in the history of television," a dazed Rock then said.

The reactions have been coming thick and fast ever since – and everyone is making the same joke about Smith getting in one little fight and moving to Bel-Air.

“I’m being called on in my life to love people and to protect people and to be a river to my people,” Smith said while accepting his Best Actor award 15 minutes later.

He continued: “I know, to do what we do, we’ve gotta be able to take abuse. You’ve gotta be able to have people talk crazy about you. In this business, you’ve gotta be able to have people disrespecting you.

“You’ve gotta smile and pretend that that’s okay. But Richard Williams and what I love – what Denzel [Washington] said to me a few minutes ago – ‘In your highest moments, be careful, that’s when the devil comes for you.’”
