In his Oscars monologue, Rock mocked Pinkett Smith's choice not to attend the show.
"Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s panties. I wasn’t invited," he joked.
Rock continued that Pinkett Smith was just "mad" that husband Will Smith wasn't nominated for his lead role in Concussion. But Pinkett Smith isn't concerned, she told the paparazzi. Instead, she wants to focus on other issues.
