David recreates Will Smith’s Slapgate in Netflix is a joke fest

In a huge comedy event like this, celebrity banters are bound to happen. The crowd went ham laughing at the show when Better Call Saul star, Mr. Bob Odenkirk slapped David Cross across the face. He did so to re-create the whole Will Smith slapping Chris Rock scenario. He even yelled at David from the audience much like King Richard’s star Will Smith at the Oscars.

Will Smith’s infamous slap mocked

Will slapped Chris Rock, who was hosting the 2022 Oscars, because Chris made a joke about Will’s wife, Jada, calling her a G.I Jane 2. Jada’s inability to grow hair because of her condition, Alopecia, got Will offended. By comparing Jada to G. I Jane, Chris was calling her bald. Will walked up the prestigious Oscar stage and planted a tight slap on Chris’s cheek. We could hear the gasps from the audience as it happened. Will Smith’s slap on Chris Rock had to send a wave of memes throughout the internet. While the shock consumed everyone at the start, it was soon realized that Will was in the wrong and he was suspended from the Oscars for 10 years.

David Cross and Mr. Bob Odenkirk re-created the scene in a mockery of the event. It left the crowd laughing as the event in question was fresh because of the memes and very recent. Mr. Bob then yelled at David, just like Will did saying,” keep my wife’s name out of you
