Will Smith slapping Rock at this year’s Oscars after he made an insensitive joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, who suffers with the autoimmune disease alopecia. “I was asked by GQ Magazine some years ago. . .

he [Rock] was the most unpleasant person I’ve ever interviewed of my entire career, and that goes back to 1972 when I started at a local newspaper,” Mr Madeley recalled. “I said, without hesitation, Chris Rock.

It’s on the record, Chris Rock. ”Elaborating further, he told how he and wife Judy Finnegan had met the US comedian when he was promoting children’s animated movie Madagascar. “It was a pre-recorded interview,” the father-of-two continued. “If it had been live, we would have abandoned it.

He was the most unpleasant, rude, aggressive, unlikeable person I’ve ever interviewed on camera, without question. “We edited around all the difficult bits and the interview that went out looked alright, but actually, his behaviour was awful.
