Did over-sharing cause Chris Rock to joke about Jada Pinkett Smith and get slapped? Nick Cannon certainly has that point of view. According to the Independent, the host himself has got a new Amazon podcast called The Daily Cannon, where he spoke about the end of Red Table Talk. “I don’t want to know all this s*** about y’all”, he said feeling that the Smith family would tend to over-share personal information with the world.
He continued to say how the 2020 special episode caused rage within the I Am Legend actor. The Smiths discussed the Matrix actresses’ ‘entanglement’ with August Alsina, face to face, for the whole world to see. The America’s Got Talent actor feels like this was unnecessary and too personal. Eventually, Chris Rock’s comparing her head to G.I. Jane led an enraged Will Smith to walk up to the stage and slap him.
