Ricky Gervais has appeared to respond to Will Smith hitting Chris Rock in the face during the 2022 Oscars.
During Sunday (27 March) night’s ceremony, Rock made a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, while he was presenting an award.
“Jada, I love you. GI Jane 2, can’t wait to see you,” Rock said, seemingly in reference to Pinkett Smith’s shaved head.
Last year, Pinkett Smith announced she had shaved her head after being diagnosed with alopecia.
On Monday (28 March), Gervais retweeted a video shared by the official David Brent account.
The clip, taken from an episode of The Office, showed his character saying: “Particularly for his wife. And she’s got alopecia. So… not a happy homelife.”
The clip has since been retweeted more than 3,000 times.
