À propos de cet audio
Chris Rock is back in the headlines this week making a splashy return to the Oscars social scene after years of self-imposed distance. According to AOL, Rock attended the Vanity Fair Oscars Party on March 2, marking his first appearance at a major Academy-related event since the infamous 2022 ceremony where Will Smith slapped him onstage. Looking as sharp as ever in a black tux, Rock was seen mingling with celebrities like David Spade, Mick Jagger, and Timothée Chalamet, and posed for photos with Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos as well as Sacha Baron Cohen and Tracee Ellis Ross. Making it a special family affair, he brought along his youngest daughter Zahra, showing a relaxed and upbeat demeanor that suggests he may finally be closing the book on the controversy. Notably absent from the festivities was Will Smith, who remains banned from Academy events. Rock’s renewed public presence is stoking conversations about both his resilience and the evolving dynamics of Hollywood’s most-watched annual gathering.
Adding to his year of high-profile moments, The Wrap and IMDb broke the news that Chris Rock has signed with WME for exclusive representation. The move positions him to expand his footprint across acting, directing, comedy touring, and book projects. This business development is particularly significant given his recent pivot toward writing and directing, with Rock currently attached to direct the U.S. remake of the Oscar-winning Danish drama Another Round.
Meanwhile, Netflix remains in the Chris Rock business following the tremendous impact of his 2023 special Selective Outrage, which was widely reported—including by “Telegrafi"—as the platform’s first-ever global live-streamed comedy event and a major financial milestone, with Rock reportedly securing a forty million dollar deal for just two specials, outpacing even Jerry Seinfeld and Louis CK.
He also recently celebrated his 60th birthday in New York in the company of A-list friends Madonna, Bill Murray, Tom Hanks, and Jerry Seinfeld, according to AOL, indicating that he remains deeply connected to elite entertainment circles.
On the cultural front, the 20th anniversary of Everybody Hates Chris is being honored this month with a special marathon on Dabl TV, a fitting tribute to a show that still resonates with audiences and underscores Rock’s lasting influence in television history.
There is little evidence of any new major controversy, unconfirmed rumors, or negative social media storms involving Chris Rock in recent days. If anything, the headlines signal a period of renewed professional energy and public goodwill, cementing his place as both a survivor and a force in comedy and culture.
