Oh dear, nothing like your husband overshadowing your entire Oscar appearance with a quick slap.

The incident, which is unlikely to be forgotten anytime soon, occurred after Chris Rock whilst introducing the award for the Best Documentary, jokingly said, “Jada, I love ya. G.I. Jane 2, can’t wait to see ya.”

Will Smith then proceeded to walk onstage and smack the comedian across the face.

Although Will may have won an Oscar and given everyone something to talk about, Jada Pinkett Smith still beats him hands down when it came to that red carpet moment.

Chris Rock may have joked about her hair but if there is anyone who can rock bald, it’s Jada!

She went bald after opening up about autoimmune skin disease, alopecia, and her resultant severe hair loss which led to her hair transformation.

She opened up about her issues with hair loss in a 2018 episode of the Red Table Talk.

“It was terrifying when it first started,” said Pinkett Smith. “I was in the shower one day and had just handfuls of hair in my hands and I was just like, oh my god, am I going bald?”

Jada is truly inspirational and her high-necked, long-sleeved emerald green Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2022 Haute Couture gown with its over-the-top ruffled train was indeed a showstopper.

She styled her dress with matching Jimmy Choo platform stiletto heels and jewelry by Glenn Spiro, founder of the G London Jewelry House.

In December 2021, Jada opened up about her battle with the autoimmune disorder on Instagram and revealed her stunning complexion.

“Now at this point, I can only laugh,” said Pinkett Smith while showing off her bald spots. “Y’all know I’ve been struggling with alopecia and just all of a sudden one day, look at this line right here. Look at that.”

“So it just showed up like that and this is going to be a little bit more difficult for me to hide. So I thought I’d just share it so y’all are not asking any questions,” she added.

“But you know mama’s going to put some rhinestones in there. I’m going to make me a little crown. That’s what mama’s going to do,” Jada concluded.

In September 2012, Jada was spotted in an amazing pair of shoes that we want to share with you. Her daughter Willow Smith also looked beautiful in an animal-printed dress.

They attended the premiere of Free Angela and All Political Prisoners during the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival. It is a documentary about the manhunt, trial, and acquittal of Angela Davis.
