The conservative actor spoke out on the 'Kyle & Jackie O' morning radio show about Smith's infamous slap, claiming that it revealed 'who he really is'—but fans aren't buying it.

Right-wing comedian and former SNL star Rob Schneider is under fire after insulting actor Will Smith for his now infamous slapping incident with Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars.

Schneider spoke out about the dust-up on Australian morning radio showKyle & Jackie O.


Schneider, who is a close friend of Rock's, had nothing nice to say about Smith, claiming that the slapping incident is "who [Smith] really is," not his Hollywood persona.

Schneider told the hosts:

"Will Smith is a tw*t. Will Smith has been hiding the fact of who he really is and it was exposed that night that he's really an a**hole."
"To do that in front of all of those people to a really great, legendary comedian—who's literally the best comedian of our generation—you wouldn't have this whole wave of comedy that came after if it wasn't for Chris Rock."

Schneider went on to add:

"He's a liar. He's a complete, utter fraud, and it was exposed in that time. Will Smith is a douchebag."

He then took aim at the Oscars and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, the organization that puts the awards show on, for allowing Smith to still collect his Best Actor trophy for King Richard moments after the incident.

"That's how politically correct the Academy is that they were so cowardly, because if I would've done that I would've been hauled out to prison. They were so worried about being racist."

Schneider contended that Smith too should have been "hauled out" of the ceremony because he "committed a crime."

The comedian also said he didn't buy Smith's reason for the slap—Smith has said he was defending his now-estranged wife Jada Pinkett Smith's honor after Rock made fun of her bald hairstyle, which Pinkett Smith has said was due to alopecia.

But Schneider contends that the joke Rock made was not offensive enough to warrant such a response.

Schneider's comments on Smith definitely did not go over well on social media, with many feeling Schneider is just jealous of Smith's star power.

Someone Flew A 'Trump Country' Banner Over Bernie And AOC's Packed Rally—And AOC Clapped Back Hard

Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had the perfect response after one of President Donald Trump's supporters flew a banner reading "Folsom Is Trump Country" over a Northern California rally she held with her colleague, Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders.

She brushed off a warning that they were entering “Trump country” as the crowd swelled in deep-red Folsom, a Republican stronghold nestled in Representative Kevin Kiley’s district. Just to drive the point home, a small plane buzzed above the rally, trailing a banner in bold red letters: “Folsom Is Trump Country.”

MAGA Senator Gets An Earful From Angry Constituents During Iowa Town Hall—And It's Pure Fire

Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley was criticized by his "pissed" constituents during a town hall in Fort Madison this week who demanded why he hasn’t taken stronger action to hold President Donald Trump and his administration accountable as tensions escalate with the Supreme Court.

Those in attendance were galvanized by the Trump administration’s refusal to comply with a unanimous Supreme Court order instructing the White House to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Garcia was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador known for its reputation for torture.
