Will Smith sat down with Trevor Noah on Monday night’s edition of “The Daily Show”, marking his first late-night interview since he notoriously slapped Chris Rock onstage during the Academy Awards back in March.Will Smith Says He’s Lost Sleep Worrying About Whether Oscars Slap Will Affect ‘Emancipation’ Team’s Success“I guess what I would say, you just never know what somebody’s going through,” Smith told Noah. “You just don’t know what’s going on with people.

“I thought he was doing a good job but he did two things that bothered me: He never said he was sorry again, and he didn’t address Chris Rock again. Maybe that’s on purpose, but when he said, ‘I have to accept myself as being a flawed human,’ it was a little bit of, I’m letting myself off the hook.

Meanwhile, Jeff Bock, media analyst at Exhibitor Relations Co., points out that the PR campaign for Smith’s new movie, “Emancipation”, is “obviously fully conceived and constructed for Smith to be brought back into the good graces of audiences, more so than advertising the film itself.”
