Since the shocking incident, Will Smith has apologized to the Academy, and shortly after, he was banned from the Oscars for the next decade. Chris Rock briefly brought up the incident in one of his recent standup routines, but that was about it. And Jada Pinkett Smith posted a cryptic message on her Instagram saying that "this is a season for healing" and she's "here for it." Jada recently had something else to say about the slap heard around the world, and this time it was in relation to her Facebook show Red Table Talk.
