Chris Rock got jokes.
Yesterday we reported that a man rushes the stage while Dave Chappelle was performing at the Hollywood Bowl on Tuesday night. In the videos circulating the internet, you can see a man literally running on stage and tackling Dave to the ground. The man comes from Chappelle’s right, and catches the comedian off guard.
Other videos show the aftermath of the incident. In the videos you can see Chapelle call Jamie Foxx to the stage where they joke about the incident.“Whenever you’re in trouble, Jamie Foxx will show up in a sheriff’s hat,” said Chappelle. “N*gga, I thought that was part of the show, I didn’t know what the f*ck…” Foxx says jokingly. Chappelle finishes “I grabbed the back of that n*gga head. His hair was spongy. Absorbent.”
Chris Rock was there supporting Chappelle as well. It’s reported that Rock grabbed the mic after the situation and joked, “was that Will Smith?” Of course referring to the infamous smack heard across the world.
Author Julissa Arce shares her experience via Twitter. She says, “Dave Chappelle got tackled to the ground on stage! Then Chris Rock came out and said, ‘was it Will Smith?!’ The wildest s***, I have ever seen!”
