In the Oscars 2022 event, Chris Rock took turns roasting everyone on the front row seats. Jada Smith also caught Chris Rock’s attention and boy did he make the most out of it. But that GI Jane joke looked like it was a tad bit over the line. Isaiah Lee, the Dave Chappelle attacker, is also of the same opinion:

“That’s not right what [Chris Rock] said about his wife, calling her GI Jane.”
