Kevin Hart Gifts Chris Rock A Goat Live On Stage And Named It Will Smith
It’s a reference to the March Oscars incident.
During their recent comedy show, Kevin Hart hilariously gifted Chris Rock a goat called Will Smith live on stage. It would be recalled that 53-Year-Old Will slapped Rock across the face at March’s Oscars after the comedian joked about Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaven head.
The animal gift presented to Rock, 57, is believed to be a reference to the then-incident.
Hart, 43, at their Rock Hart: Only Headliners Allowed show in New York’s Madison Square Garden, brush back on the altercation and is seen holding the goat by a lead. In a clip on TikTok, he remarked: “What the f**k did you just say?” Dave Chappelle, 48, who joined the show, replied: “Don’t act like I’m crazy; you brought the goat here.”
“This n***** [the goat] is confused with the f**k is happening. What you gonna name this goat, Chris?”
Hart quickly declared: “The name is Will Smith.” In a twist, the kind gesture backfired when the goat gave Rock a gift of its own – it had reportedly s**t on Rock’s shoes and wrecked them. But thankfully, the comedian had on some white moon boots.

In an interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, Kevin explained the reason behind the gift.
He told 47-Year-Old Jimmy that Chris remains a mentor, friend, inspiration and is a large part of the reason why he’s today in his career. “Just from his advice, his insight, etc. He’s my G.O.A.T [greatest of all time]; he’s my guy. And I wanted him to feel that” Hart, who hopes both Rock and Will can put their differences behind them, stated.
This comes after Kevin said he’s in a better space than he was in the aftermath of the Oscars.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, he said his friend – Will is still apologetic after smacking Rock on stage but is ready to move forward and not dwell on the past. Following the incident, it had been reported that Will went to India for spiritual healing and has not been seen much since. Also, it’s unknown if he has contacted Rock, who has been in the news this week for his new romance with actress Lake Bell.
