00:00Hey guys, it's Allie for Hollywood Life with your news in entertainment.

00:03Let's jump into it today with an update regarding the Oscar slap.

00:06Recall Will Smith slapped Chris Rock on stage at the Academy Awards

00:10after he said a joke about his wife's bald head.

00:12Now, Jada Pinkett Smith's series Red Table Talk premiered yesterday,

00:16and rather than share her opinion on the situation,

00:18she just included a simple statement on a black screen prior to the episode that read,

00:22Considering all that has happened in the last few weeks,

00:25the Smith family has been focusing on deep healing.

00:27Some of the discoveries around our healing will be shared at the table when the time comes.

00:32Until then, the table will continue offering itself to powerful, inspiring, and healing testimonies

00:37like that of our incredible, impressive first guest.

00:41Thanks for joining us, Jada.

00:42Unfortunately, nothing else was said about Will or the Academy Awards incident,

00:46but it's not clear if the first episode was filmed before or after the slap happened,

00:50so I guess we'll just have to wait and see if they address it this season.
