Despite that, Chris did NOT say no, when asked if he would host the award show again...
From E! News
Chris Rock is all about forgiving and forgetting.
It’s been three years since the comedian hosted the Oscars and, infamously, was slapped onstage by Will Smith over a joke he made about Will’s now-estranged wife Jada Pinkett Smith.
But as for whether Chris would ever return as host, he coyly told E! News at the annual Vanity Fair Oscars Party, “You never know.”
“This is what I would say, the most miserable people on earth are people that can’t forgive,” he continued. “And not just people, you have to forgive yourself sometimes. So, hey, you never know.”
The Madagascar alum also had a sage reply as to whether he’s fully moved on from the now-infamous incident, which ultimately led to Will receiving a 10-year ban from Academy events and his later public apology to Chris.
“I live in forgiveness,” Chris noted. “True love starts at forgiveness.”

The slap heard around the world.
They will never, ever ask Chris to host the Oscars again. Never.
Will is restricted. Not Chris
It would make lots of ppl tune in. He doesn't have any other jobs. Why not?
Chris is a reminder of one of the most embarrassing moments on television for a Black man. No one wants to be reminded of that. They'll never invite him to host again.
Chris has never been funny to me
Money must be running out.
He's funny and sometimes smart but I'm not here for Black comedians who dog Black women. Chris, Kevin, all of them love draggin' Black women. Bet he'll never tell another joke about Jada. There is that.
I DON'T WANT TO SEE POOKY HOSTING THE OSCARS.
GET SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT.
BTW, CR DESERVED EVERY BIT OF THAT SLAP! HE TRIED TO EMBARRASS JADA WHO WAS MINDING HER OWN BUSINESS & GOT EMBARRASSED IN THE PROCESS!
Let him host the CMAs, where he can laugh with them while they say the n-word to his face like he did w/ Louis CK.
@3:22PM This is 1 of the few rare times I totally agree w/All Caps. I hate Chris Rock.🖕🏽🖕🏽 He acts like he's special ed. Loud & unfunny. I'll consider writing to The Academy & ask that this 🐵 doesn't get the gig again. He's a disgrace. 🖕🏽🖕🏽
"F" Oscar, Emmy, & Tony!(Grammys azwell)
Stand Down, 6:11! Don't nobody want a childish troll in agreement w/ them!
Take your emoji filled trolling comment on somewhere else!
He shouldn't though...
