\u201cMy dad, Will Smith, stood up to a bully \u2014 Chris Rock \u2014 for making fun of my mom, Jada Pinkett Smith. The world may have turned on him, but I was proud. He taught me to always defend my woman, no matter how big the stage. He\u2019ll always be my hero for giving Chris Rock that hot slap in front of the entire world.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n
