Jane 2,' can't wait to see it" and hit Rock in the face.
In 2016, Rock hosted the Oscars and joked about Pinkett Smith and her husband boycotting over #OscarsSoWhite, the online movement which began as a way to address the lack of diversity at the Academy Awards. "Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna's panties," Rock said during his opening monologue."I wasn't invited.""Jada's mad her man Will was not nominated for 'Concussion.'" Rock said in reference to the 2015 football film Will Smith starred in."I get it. It's not fair that Will was this good and didn't get nominated. It's also not fair that Will was paid $20 million for [the 1999 film] 'Wild Wild West.
Smith and Rock's relationship goes back to the 1990s. Rock guest starred on Smith's hit series"The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" where he played a character named Maurice and Maurice's sister Jasmine.
