How Jada Pinkett Smith, 'Red Table Talk' handled the slap (Los Angeles Times)

'The Smith family has been focusing on deep healing,' a statement read during an episode of 'Red Table Talk,' co-hosted by Jada Pinkett Smith.

When people leave me, [it] was a direct correlation to my dad, and always feeling like, ‘If I wasn’t perfect, will they leave me?’ I don’t want to feel the pain of anybody leaving me.” “That was always in the back of my mind. “I really had to put it in a spiritual perspective of like, the higher power takes so much from people. I watch the higher power take things every day, and by golly, if the higher power wants to take your hair? “When I came offstage, I was still that scared little girl. He later extended his apology to Rock in a statement, calling his own conduct “unacceptable and inexcusable.” After the 2022 Oscars aired on ABC, Rock also drew criticism for making fun of Pinkett Smith’s hair — especially considering he once interviewed an alopecia patient for a documentary about Black hair. At the 2022 Oscars, Smith walked onto the stage and smacked Rock after the presenter made a joke about Pinkett Smith’s bald hairstyle. “Some of the discoveries around our healing will be shared at the table when the time calls. The academy announced its decision after Smith resigned from the organization. Until then ... the table will continue offering itself to powerful, inspiring and healing testimonies like that of our incredibly impressive first guest. But I will always, always stand with women.

'Red Table Talk' Sidesteps Oscars Slap, Jada Pinkett Smith ... (Variety)

'Red Table Talk' sidestepped the Oscars slap, but Jada Pinkett Smith promised to eventually discuss her family's 'healing.'

Many have suspected he will eventually sit down down for a larger television interview, and some have questioned if he would break his silence on “Red Table Talk,” with Oprah or elsewhere. After the shocking moment, he won the statue for best actor, marking the first Oscar win of his career, and he addressed the slap in a lengthy and tearful acceptance speech, though he did not apologize to Rock at the podium. “Considering all that has happened in the last few weeks, the Smith family has been focusing on deep healing,” the message read. Last month, the Smiths were at the center of the biggest controversy in Oscars history when Will Smith went up onstage and slapped presenter Chris Rock, who made a joke at Pinkett Smith’s expense about her shaved head. However, an individual close to the talk show says the timing delay had nothing to do with the statement and was simply a post-production issue. “Some of the discoveries around our healing will be shared at the table when the time calls.” The message continued, “Until then…The table will continue offering itself to powerful, inspiring and healing testimonies like that of our incredible impressive first guest.”

Jada Pinkett Smith will not be bringing “The Slap” to the Red Table ... (The A.V. Club)

It's a season of healing on Red Table Talk, and that means no talking about the thing everybody's talking about.

Following Oscar night, Jada Pinkett Smith announced on Instagram that this was “ a season for healing and I’m here for it.” But, to everything (turn, turn, turn), there is a season. “I had sex with so many women, and it was so constitutionally disagreeable to the core of my being, that I developed a psychosomatic reaction to having an orgasm,” he wrote in his memoir, Will. “It would literally make me gag and sometimes even vomit.” Yeah, nobody asked, dude. In fact, an opening title card warned viewers that there would be no Slap talk on this show because “the Smith family has been focused on deep healing.”
