In a statement following the verdict, Rock expressed his satisfaction with the outcome. “This case was never just about the slap itself; it was about holding someone accountable for their actions and addressing the harm done,” Rock said. “I’m relieved that the court recognized the seriousness of what happened.”

The slap had already led to significant repercussions for Smith, including his resignation from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and a ban from attending the Oscars for ten years.
The verdict has sparked a range of reactions across the entertainment industry and beyond. Supporters of Rock view the ruling as a validation of his experience and a necessary step in ensuring accountability for actions that occur in the public eye. “This decision underscores the importance of respecting personal boundaries and taking responsibility for one’s actions,” said one supporter.
