I am not 100% sure it was real or a work. It I do not see the end game if it was a work? Why do these 50+ actors need to be relevant by embarrassing themselves on TV? Rock looks like he leaned into the slap though so I can see why some people are calling it fake.

Slapping a comedian for making fun of someone or something is a slippery slope though and shouldn’t be something that is celebrated. Sticking up for your family is also admirable. I don’t really know what to think but hard to avoid all the memes and discussion on this topic today
I’m certain it’s real. Smith always wants to be the nice guy. He’d never want to pull off a publicity stunt where he comes off as wrong. He lost it when his wife gave daggers. And they say chivalry isn’t dead. First he was cucolded, now he’s whipped. I don’t know what the next stage is but she’s certainly got him on the leash.
