Oscars 2023: Chris Rock declines Host offer
American comedian and actor, Chris Rock has declined the offer to be the Host for the 2023 Oscars award ceremony.
The 57-year-old filmmaker said this in an interview maintains that after what happened at this year’s event, accepting the offer would be like returning to the scene of a crime.
Recall that Smith walked onstage and slapped Rock on the face at the 94th Academy Awards on March 27, 2022 in response to the joke Chris made about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett’s shaved head.
