Atleast in US a black comedian can 'roast' Hollywood for being racist and they can laugh over themselves. In India, Upper Castes (majority of them) don't even acknowledge the horrendous torture inflicted upon lower castes every single day - sometimes physical but almost always psychological.
This is such a brave & brilliant performance. You can see & hear that he’s nervous, delivering an unusually consequential & controversial opening monologue to an audience of mostly white liberal elites, many of whom are staring back at him unimpressed. I remember watching this in 2016 & thinking: “oh so that’s who Chris Rock is. This is why he’s so famous.”
The jokes are actually quite stale, as are the awards, as is the academy, as the whole pat on back goes... Nonetheless good for drilling the message home and at least he hits a homer with originality in last joke to tie it up nice.
A comedians job is to be controversial. Chris hit the nail right on the head with this monologue. It made people think, it got a rise out of them, made them uncomfortable, might've even pissed some of them off. In fact it did, it was even on the news and its everywhere on youtube that people were tweeting about feeling uncomfortable. Nowadays people get offended way to easily. Its ridiculous. Great job by Chris Rock.
'Nowadays people get offended way too easily' ummm this whole thing was only a controversy because people were offended that all the acting nominees were white...
@@aazimqawi3835 I never said you *had* to be controversial but most comedians *are* controversial and always will be. If not one person is offended at least once then its not comedy. Comedy is poking fun at serious shit that gets a reaction and rise out of people. Its always been like that. Always.
@@MrBen51309 Back then I saw little criticism on stuff like Chris Rock talked about in his stand up. Today in the world of the internet and dumb #metoo movement everyone is sensitive!
I've always loved Chris Rock, from his long history of standup, to his appearances in Adam Sandler movies, to being my favorite character in Madagascar. And, now that he was slapped by Will, I love him even more.
His head looks smaller! this coming from someone (me) who's getting bigger (less hair) as the years go by. He is looking great and humor could never end with such a great talented icon!
I think the popular expression is "Black don't crack" I dated a black girl 10 years ago that looks the exact same today. I told her that black people age like wine, white people age like cheese. She lol'ed.
Chris Rock is my favorite comedian, simply because I notice he sets his audience up to relax and laugh, then attack them directly. It's like Dave Chappelle said about how you can't laugh at jokes about everyone else, and when they target you pull back like it's no longer comedy.
Chris was bringing awareness with laughter which is a comedian’s gift. Speaking about lynching to what The brown people concerns are today🤸🏼♀️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@josh18230 No one was in pain here, there's different between pain and being comfortable. Most were uncomfortable because they are racist, so is the industry and Chris was pointing that out. The fact that you missed all that and went to pain is sad.
Aahhhhh yeah they were faking those Oscar winning 😆 laughs. Buuuut Chris had to ease their white sensibilities by strategically placing little soft zingers here and there to let them release some of that tension because some of those white men were about to 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯.

I mean, if it involves you, would you agree? Hollywood it's as cliquey as Comedy. You don't step on people's toes and given its capitalism, they can use their filmmaking means of production as they please. They also aren't forced to ve inclusive in their vision. They can have a vision for 10 years and as long as 1 year is inclusive ti not seem racist, in a racial typecast, they're not seen ads racist.

That's a brave dude man. The guy stands on stage in a theater full of rich white people ... and all he talked about was black people and made them laugh.
A brilliant act, and one of the most beloved comedians. Will Smith slapped him not because of this years Oscar’s , but because of this video where Chris mocks Jada boycotting the Oscar’s when she wasn’t even invited. Will is going to pay for that slap.
Because those elitist rich people are not used to someone telling them the truth, they are used to "yes men" and crazy fans telling them they are so perfect. F$%k them, good on Chris !
I noticed when Chris was making black jokes everyone was knee slapping laughing but as soon as he talked about Hollywood being racist, a few applause, a few laughs. Feed them what they want and then add a little truth serum
Yes. I thought Will missed a great opportunity to bring awareness to the medical condition alopecia. He could have taken that stage not only to voice his dislike of the joke, but as to why.
@@lytrell1326 Will Smith proved to be an insecure jackass! Just watch Redd Foxx Roast series how the greatest actors and artists in the history such as Kirk Douglas, Frank Sinatra, ... were getting roasted by Dean Martin and Don Rickles. They would laugh it off with dignity and class instead of storming the stage and smacking the comedians!
With the way the camera turned to Kevin Hart immediately after he was mentioned it shows that the direction was planned very accurately. ...which I'm not sure if it means that it was intentional, or if the cameraman messed up and wasn't ready when it was his turn.
@@KombatGod no actually the cameraman was tasked to pan to Kevin Hart at a certain point but due to his miniature size they couldn’t find him and the cameraman panicked
he really knocked this out of the park to me. a tense subject artfully managed. which makes me honor him even more for sparing will and jada a verbal beating.
9:38 The earpiece fell, Chris instantly catches it with perfect reflex without letting the audience even notice and continues with the monologue, now thats what I call a pro.
Lootfisk That was one of the hardest lines I ever heard from Chris Rock. Like that shit had me shook cause everything he said is true. Through out the years only so many black noms actually won awards. This Chris Rock opening and Ricky Gervais this year have to be my all time faves.
Boy Chris was tearing it up on that stage that night Way to go Chris We wasn’t worried about being nominated back in the day we was busy trying to live another day 1962 is the year I was born My mom was busy trying to make a life And she protected me the rest of her life bless her heavenly soul🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😇 P.S.

They get it..they just can't do anything about it
Der Banger ! yep. and I loved it
Brilliant , supreme confidence...love that!!!👏👏👏
Amazing. Even with the current drama it’s brave to say all these things in such a big and lucrative stage. Keep it up.
That white tux Chris had on looked really good on him.
+AIRG01 umm...what?
Well, now that I'm seeing this in a new light with fresh eyes today (lol) I can see that the fashion choice was ironic.
Isatu Mansaray Sus
THAT'S HABERDASHERIST!
Isatu Mansaray he’s my fave I love him I don’t care I think Chris Rock is attractive to me
Looks like Will had been harbouring some revenge type feelings for a while.
You’d think he’d have those feelings towards his wife sleeping with her kids friend.
No, I think he was still laughing at the previous joke and when it sunk in what Rock said he lost it! Good man!
@@Dan0TheMano no that has nothing to do with black representation in Hollywood.... Those are 2 different situations
I agree
Yep since chris rocks 2016 Oscars speech where he continually belitteled and joked on will jayda and the black boycott
this guy is a genius, instead of boycotting the oscars he came and shared his thoughts in a hilarious and reasonable fashion, i know a lot of directors the movie industry in general will take note.
Or....not.😕
Stay strong Chris Rock. God bless you.
That's a brave dude man.
The guy stands on stage in a theater full of rich white people ... and all he talked about was black people and made them laugh.
He's brave because he's black and stood up in a room full of rich white people talking about black people? 🤔
@301AG Ok, cool. I can understand it since you put it that way, but the OP made it about skin color instead of class.
@@skip031890 isn't that what the white's have been doing since eternity?
@@sunny9051 yes they did
Behold,...... oblivious puppet.
I can not believe he is 54 years old
He looked 30 years old
OFEK HAIM IKR! DAMN
Ikr i was soo shook omg hes immortal
+OFEK HAIM WHAT???? He is 52 YEARS OLD! I thought he was in his late 20s or early 30s.
Dicky Collins same with Jamie Fox. Fountain of youth.
+Green Classified HOLY CRAP JAMIE FOXX IS 50!!
One of my absolute faves! Chris completely hit the nail on so many relevant topics, even for 2024
A brilliant act, and one of the most beloved comedians. Will Smith slapped him not because of this years Oscar’s , but because of this video where Chris mocks Jada boycotting the Oscar’s when she wasn’t even invited. Will is going to pay for that slap.
That is exactly it. The slap was about this video, not that silly GI Jane joke. Jada was still upset about this video.
Never seen so many uncomfortable people in one place.
Because those elitist rich people are not used to someone telling them the truth, they are used to "yes men" and crazy fans telling them they are so perfect. F$%k them, good on Chris !
And basically he held back; compared to some of the stand-up routines I've heard him do on racism.
Ken Johnson loOOLOLOL

Damn, that man has balls of steel.
yeah he don' give a fuck xD
You got that right. There were a lot of uncomfortable folks in there.
Thank you Mr Rock sir! Love this monolog. Brilliant!!
Just realised that Comedians are some of the most intelligent and intellectual people in the world!
I noticed when Chris was making black jokes everyone was knee slapping laughing but as soon as he talked about Hollywood being racist, a few applause, a few laughs. Feed them what they want and then add a little truth serum
They think they're slick.
Exactly! He had the perfect balance. He knew what he was doing
it's disgusting which is why their viewers are leaving them.
Genius
BOOM*****
Chris accepting the host duties, and addressing the issues brought more light to the subject, then those choosing to stay away. Bravo Chris 👏
Yes. I thought Will missed a great opportunity to bring awareness to the medical condition alopecia. He could have taken that stage not only to voice his dislike of the joke, but as to why.
Spot on
Nah
@@micholesmith5206 Will is not very eloquent in real life i doubt he'd even know what to say, Chris can talk for hours.
Probably my favourite opening monologue. I love Chris Rock and his comedy. He is a living legend.
This has been the shortest 10 minutes i have ever experienced 🖤
“It’s about having equal opportunities”. This was one of the best monologues at Oscar delivered with great humour.
Exactly. Not outcomes. People having it rougher just want their fair shot at something, not a handout saying "you made it to our level".
How do you feel now?
2022 Oscar monologue
Filled with slaps and swears.
His slap was great "humour" as well
@@lytrell1326 Will Smith proved to be an insecure jackass! Just watch Redd Foxx Roast series how the greatest actors and artists in the history such as Kirk Douglas, Frank Sinatra, ... were getting roasted by Dean Martin and Don Rickles. They would laugh it off with dignity and class instead of storming the stage and smacking the comedians!
The camera messing up when he said "best cinematographer" was hilarious
timestamp
@@freecreditreport.combaby 2:25
With the way the camera turned to Kevin Hart immediately after he was mentioned it shows that the direction was planned very accurately.
...which I'm not sure if it means that it was intentional, or if the cameraman messed up and wasn't ready when it was his turn.
@@KombatGod no actually the cameraman was tasked to pan to Kevin Hart at a certain point but due to his miniature size they couldn’t find him and the cameraman panicked
@@JJJ-ok7nc lol ok my bad.
He's been 'roasting' for days. He's talent is overwhelming. Bless him he always delivers 🙏 🙌 👏.
Chris rock bro u are brutally honest about the world 🌎 keep it up much love blessings 🙏👑.
"I can't boycott rihanna's pants coz I wasnt invited there"😂😂😂
He's never been to that part of Pussytown before
Watching this again. Literally stopped and smiled when Chadwick was in the camera. RIP 👑

I kind of broke down. It sucks that many young black children lost a personal hero, and really positive role model.
@@joshuachavez2537 Why? He didn't even knew you exist.

Very insightful monologue. Well done Chris.
Man, undoubtedly one of the greatest comedians that ever lived he is thought-provoking he straight up slayed that monologue everything was so cringe 😂
A black category :
*Best Black friend who dies first in a horror movie*
Or Best Black Best Friend. The Oscar goes to Stacey Dash!!!!!
Maynard Frith 🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒😒
@Maynard Frith What a joke.
@Maynard Frith ur either ignorant or very stupid
I don’t even know why that’s a stereotype. Black people straight-up never die first at all in horror movies.
Brilliant! Thank you Will Smith for reminding us of what a valuable talent Chris Rock is to America!
Yess lol
ikr
Will didn't knock him OUT, but he knocked him IN(to) the spotlight he deserves.
Hahaha its all in fun but dont forget about Jesus Christ coming back to earth soon !!!!!!!!!
@tara Devi nope you gotta thank uhm, what’s her face? the bald headed wife.
Wow. Just seeing this now for the first time. He killed it. Wow. He’s def one of the best out there man.
Kudos to you, Chris Rock! Your Oscar's monologue rocks! Such a brilliant delivery...it surely broke the ice (there was tension in the beginning)!👏🤗😅
C. Rock is now the most famous comedian on the planet. Well done will.
He already is
@@gresyehb9862 yeah but this whole situation put him in the spotlight again 🤩
yea these jokes are hilarious. Can't wait for his tour.
he really knocked this out of the park to me. a tense subject artfully managed. which makes me honor him even more for sparing will and jada a verbal beating.
and Will becomes the most hated😆
Chris Rock is a comedy legend. We are incredibly lucky to be here witnessing his incredible performances. Can’t wait to see him on his tour this year.
👌
Man please
Chris is NOT EVEN FUNNY!!!
@@karensimmons1572 ok Karen
@@karensimmons1572 shut up Karen
I love the way his eyes sparkle.
9:38 The earpiece fell, Chris instantly catches it with perfect reflex without letting the audience even notice and continues with the monologue, now thats what I call a pro.
When your grandmother is swinging from a tree, it's really hard to care about best documentary of foreign short. Im dead
Lootfisk Chris Rock is a genius. Period.
Holly shit this is too much 😂
i laughed too hard at that
no no, the grandma is dead
Lootfisk That was one of the hardest lines I ever heard from Chris Rock. Like that shit had me shook cause everything he said is true. Through out the years only so many black noms actually won awards. This Chris Rock opening and Ricky Gervais this year have to be my all time faves.
Chris goes hard and then touches his earpiece - am sure someone must be telling him THIS IS NOT WHAT WE AGREED ON. 😂😂
😆 🤣 exactly 💯
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣☠️
😂😂😂
😅😅😅
Boy Chris was tearing it up on that stage that night
Way to go Chris
We wasn’t worried about being nominated back in the day we was busy trying to live another day
1962 is the year I was born
My mom was busy trying to make a life
And she protected me the rest of her life bless her heavenly soul🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😇
P.S. Thanks to the people that lost their lives during the protest marching back then,thanks for paving the way🔥🙏🏾👏🏾✊🏾😇
WAY TO GO CHRIS ROCK✊🏾💪🏾✊🏾💪🏾✊🏾💪🏾🎤
God Bless🙏🏾
Chris Rock was 51 years old in 2016 ..and he looks very young....wow
People talking about the crowd getting uncomfortable. C'mon guys that is the botox.
Dead 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nah they're uncomfortable AF. You can hear it by what they choose to laugh at and what they don't.
Lmao😂
@Maynard Frith enlighten me. How many? And also mention how many movies you have seen please. Otherwise I have to think you don’t know how to use internet.
😭😭😭

"We need the same opportunities"

T'challa took Your Words to heart Chris Rock 👍👍👍

I saw that and had to check what year this was from...crazy coincidence?

Old white jewish people made money from that movie, not the black man
Love that
Say what you must about the man, his legendary status is undisputed. The best to ever do it.
Longstanding and legendary comedic legend. Very provactive.
