Chris Rock’s comedy show ticket sales jump after slapping Will Smith, ticket price Rs 26,000 minimum

It seems that Chris’s comedy show ticket sales have skyrocketed due to Will Smith and Chris Rock’s Slap Gate. The Oscars 2022 presenter is currently on a comedy tour in the US. Ticketing marketplace, TikTok, revealed that the show has sold more tickets overnight than ever before, reports Variety. “We sold more tickets to see Chris Rock overnight than we did last month,” TickPick tweeted.

He also claimed that the show has seen a hike in prices. While the minimum rate per ticket was $46 per ticket (approximately Rs 3,500) as of March 18, a ticket now costs a minimum of $341 (approximately Rs 25,000).

Chris has yet to publicly react to the controversy. However, a TMZ report claimed that the comedian was ‘shocked’ after the slap. Shortly after presenting Summer of Soul with the award for the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature, Chris reportedly made his way into the dressing room and left the building shortly thereafter. Grapevine said that Chris had no plans to stay until the end of the ceremony before slapping Will.

The report also claimed that Will and Chris have not spoken since the incident and that the comedian was not aware of Jada Pinkett Smith’s alopecia, which caused the actress to lose her hair. During the Oscars 2022 ceremony, before presenting the awards, Chris mocked Jada’s look, saying, “GI Joe 2, can’t wait to see it.” Smith did not like the joke. “Keep my wife’s name out of your f***ing mouth,” shouted Chris after slapping him. “Wow man, that was a GI Jane joke,” The Rock defended.

Meanwhile, Will issued a public apology apologizing to Chris, The Academy, and his King Richard team. “I want to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I’m ashamed and my actions weren’t indicative of the man I want to be. For violence in a world of love and kindness There is no room. I would also like to apologize to the Academy, the producers of the show, all the attendees and everyone watching around the world. I want to apologize to the Williams family and my King Richard family. I am deeply sorry for this. That my behavior has stained a grand journey for all of us,” he wrote.
