ASAP Rocky Doesn’t Think Will Smith’s Slap Was ‘Targeted At Chris Rock’
While most of the rappers who have weighed in on the Will Smith Oscars slap either empathized or found it funny (seriously, there are so many jokes), there’s at least one who did not. New father-to-be ASAP Rocky, dropping by controversial quote factory Drink Champs, was asked for his take on the slap, which found Smith leaving some fresh prints (heyo) on the face of Chris Rock over a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair.
“I’m a fan of Will, Jada, Chris, all of them,” Rocky replied. “They OGs. I think it’s unfortunate that, like, he emasculated another Black man in front of all them people like that. But I do think that, like, it’s some built-up shit that probably wasn’t really targeted at Chris Rock. I don’t know. … Like what you said, it seems like it’s more than just a G.I. Jane joke.”
Well, he’s certainly right about things being built up. For one thing, Jada has suffered alopecia, an immune disorder that causes hair to fall out in patches. This is why she keeps her head shaved, a look that drew the comparison to the titular character from Demi Moore’s 1997 woman-in-the-military film (it probably doesn’t help that the movie was pretty bad and roundly rebuked on its release). In the preceding years, the Smiths have been a lightning rod for criticism and ridicule as a result of their rumored open marriage and the press run for Will’s memoir. A lot of quotes were taken out of context and used to demean and mock the man, who we know has social media and uses it often. In addition to the way people have talked about his kids, it probably is safe to say he’s had just about enough of the jokes.
Smith later apologized for the slap and faces possible disciplinary measures up to and including expulsion from The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences.

LeBron James’ Latest Revelation Has Fans Praying It’s An April Fools Prank
LeBron James has struggled with injuries this season, however, if there is one thing about LeBron, it’s that he always tries to battle back and stay in the lineup. Even at 37 years old, LeBron remains one of the more durable players in the league, which is a testament to his fitness. LeBron has missed the last couple of Lakers games, however, as his ankle is giving him big problems.
LeBron was expected to test the waters tonight and maybe even make an appearance against the New Orleans Pelicans. Unfortunately, for Lakers fans, LeBron came through with a troubling admission on Twitter this afternoon as he claimed that he was done for the season, and would not play another match for the Lakers until the Fall.
Well, today is April Fools Day and LeBron is known for being a prankster on social media. With this in mind, many of his fans were in the quote tweets of his post, claiming that this was just a bad April Fools joke, and that in a few minutes, he will return to the platform with an admission of guilt. So far, that admission has yet to come.
Stay tuned to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you updates on this developing story.
MGK Reveals Pete Davidson Will Be In His Wedding Party, Says He Was “Totally” There For Skete During Ye Feud
31-year-old Machine Gun Kelly is gearing up for one of the biggest days of his life – his wedding to Transformers actress Megan Fox. While the couple has been pretty open about the oddities of their relationship ahead of their big day, the members of Colson Baker’s wedding party have remained a secret, until now, that is.
During a recent appearance on The Howard Stern Show, the rapper-turned-rocker revealed that his comedian friend Pete Davidson will likely be among those standing beside him as he starts this next chapter of his life. “Will Pete Davidson be your best man? I believe he will be,” the host asked MGK.

“I think my side is gonna be an army… I have so many close and best friends that have been with me for all these years, but yeah, I think Pete’s absolutely gonna be standing there with me,” the “Wild Boy” hitmaker told Stern, adding, “We should mic him just for commentary anyway.”
Elsewhere in the interview, as noted by Page Six, Baker discussed his buddy’s infamous public feud with Kanye West from earlier this year, revealing that he’s “totally” been supporting the Saturday Night Live performer.
“At the end of the day, man, we’re young men trying to find our place in the world and figuring it out, and it doesn’t really help when you’ve got a million different voices ripping you apart or telling you, ‘You’re doing this wrong,'” the mainstream sellout hitmaker shared on Wednesday.
“We’re all just figuring it out, man. This is life,” he continued. “We love everybody, man. We have so much love. It’s almost like, if we need to be the vessels for people’s anger, then so be it. That must be why we’re here. I do hope that they can feel our spirit and see that we love you.”
Kelly also gave his take on Davidson’s budding relationship with 41-year-old Kim Kardashian, revealing that he’s “so happy” for his friend – check out a clip from the recording artist’s interview with Howard Stern below.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Hits James Harden With The Perfect Troll
Giannis Antetokounmpo has been criticized over the years for being a one-dimensional player with no jumpshot. After winning the NBA title last year, Giannis has been looking to change the narratives surrounding him, and so far, he has done a very good job of it. In fact, Giannis had some incredible shots last night against the Brooklyn Nets as he led his team to a spectacular win.
After the game, Giannis decided to troll James Harden, who once said that all Giannis can do is run and dunk. While the Greek Freak was mostly joking, it’s clear that he still wants to prove to people that he can play at a high level beyond just blocking and dunking.

“I don’t want to be the guy only that dunks and runs, I can make a three,” Antetokounmpo said via Uproxx. “But no, it doesn’t really matter, because at the end of the day, if you don’t have a successful season and if you don’t try getting better and staying humble and staying happy, to play all the way until May, June, nobody is going to remember this.”
As it stands, the Bucks are looking like a team that could make a big splash in the NBA playoffs. While some don’t think they will repeat as champions, there are certainly others who beg to differ.

Chris Rock Shuts Down ‘F**k Will Smith’ Heckler at Comedy Show
Chris Rock is taking the high road.
After breaking his silence about the Oscars, the comedian was back in Boston for the second sold-out night of his stand-up comedy tour.
He began his set by once again addressing Sunday’s Academy Awards where he was slapped in the face by Will Smith after making a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair.
One audience member tried to interrupt the show by yelling out, “F**k Will Smith!” but Rock wasn’t having it and immediately shut it down.
“No, no, no, no, no…” he repeatedly said until the heckler stopped.
According to the New York Post, security was removing hecklers at the Wilbur Theater, whether they supported Chris or not.
“All we did was interact and respond to the comedian,” said one fan who was kicked out. “They are so afraid that someone is going to say something that they kicked us out before we could.”
The night before, Rock returned to the stage where he addressed the headline-making incident for the first time.
“I don’t have a bunch of shit about what happened, so if you came to hear that, I have a whole show I wrote before this weekend,” he told the crowd. “I’m still kind of processing what happened. So, at some point I’ll talk about that shit. And it will be serious and funny.”
During that show, hecklers also expressed anti-Smith sentiments, but Rock ignored the comments and continued with his hour-long set.
Will Packer, who produced the Oscars, appeared on “Good Morning America” Friday where he recalled the evening’s events. He said that LAPD was ready to arrest Smith until Rock declined to press charges.
“They were laying out the options, and as they were talking, Chris was being very dismissive of those options,” recalled Packer. “He was like, ‘No, I’m fine.’ He was like, ‘No, no, no.’ Even to the point where I said, ‘Rock, let them finish.’”
