Chris Rock discussed the infamous Will Smith Oscars slap while on stage during a recent appearance for his "Only Headliners Allowed" comedy tour with Kevin Hart in New Jersey.

The comedian admitted the hit from the Academy Award-winner "hurt," but insisted he wasn't a "victim" as he joked with the audience at the PNC Bank Arts Center.  "Anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face," Rock told the crowd, according to Us Weekly.

He later added, "I'm not a victim. Yeah, that s--- hurt, motherf---er. But, I shook that s--- off and went to work the next day.

I don't go to the hospital for a paper cut." Chris Rock talked about the now-infamous Will Smith Oscars slap while performing a stand-up routine with Kevin Hart in New Jersey on Sunday.
