Packer says that Chris Rock did not get to one joke that was pre-written for him in the teleprompter.
He did not tell one of the planned jokes.
He was immediately freestyling.
I figured, okay, hes going to say something or come at him.
Something funnys gonna happen because thats the nature of Chris and thats the nature of Will.
But when Smith started yelling at the stage with real anger, his heart dropped.
I just remember thinking,Oh no, oh no, not like this.
