Others were more supportive of Smith. Tiffany Haddish, who starred in Girls Trip with Pinkett Smith, told People that it “meant the world” to her to see Smith protect his wife.
“And maybe the world might not like how it went down, but for me, it was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen because it made me believe that there are still men out there that love and care about their women, their wives,” Haddish said.
Nicki Minaj also posted a series of tweets in support of Smith, saying she loves Chris Rock, but thought the joke was out of line.
