American actor and singer, Jaden Smith has hailed his father, Will Smith, for slapping comedian, Chris Rock, after he made a joke about his mother, Jada Pinkett Smith.

Jaden Lauds Will Smith

While presenting at the 2022 Oscars, Rock made a joke about Jada making “G.I Jane 2” in reference to her shaved head. The actress, who suffers from alopecia, immediately rolled her eyes.

Will Smith then rushed the stage and slapped the comedian, went back to his seat and began screaming for Rock to “Keep my wife’s name out of your f–king mouth.”

Although Will Smith had apologized for his rash action, Jaden appears to have hailed his dad after the Academy Awards ended on Sunday night.

“And That’s How We Do It,” Jaden Smith tweeted without specifying whether he was talking about the slap or the fact that moments after the altercation his father won an award for the Best Actor at the 2022 Oscars.

KanyiDaily recalls that Will Smith and Jada Pinkett had revealed that they have never considered getting a divorce despite the dark times in their 21-year-old marriage.
