Tony Rock recently answered his fan’s questions on Twitter where he stated that he has not accepted Will Smith’s apology. When asked what he planned to do after his brother was slapped, he replied by simply saying "respond."

The comedian also confirmed that Chris Rock and Will Smith had not made up at Oscars 2022. Rumors about the duo’s hashing out have been trending on the internet after Page Six learned from Sean “Diddy” Combs that they would be making amends and working through their differences after the event.

Tony said that he does not approve of Will’s apology. When he was asked if he would fight with fire or go the professional way, he said, “It’s on bro."
