Along_the_Wire Rock doesn’t strike me as a regular reader of MailOnline or Variety - I’d imagine that he had no idea she had alopecia
I have to disagree, and not just for the sake of being contrarian. Rock, Smith and Pinkett Smith had been friends for decades - Rock even appeared on Fresh Prince, and Pinkett Smith was on The Chris Rock Show.
Rock wouldn’t need to be a regular reader of MailOnline to keep tabs on them. They might have still spoken with each other occasionally in the recent past, and even not probably still have a number of mutual friends.
Rock even made another joke about Pinkett Smith when he hosted the Oscars in 2016, the year when Pinkett Smith was among those who boycotted it over “a lack of diversity among nominees”: Rock said: “Jada says she’s not coming. Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s panties. I wasn’t invited!”
So even just from that it seems pretty clear he’s been keeping tabs on what she’s up to.
PS I like how you added “I didn’t til yesterday morning” to your comment - as if the fact that a complete nobody in England who doesn’t even care didn’t know PS had alopecia, is somehow in any way relevant to explaining why an old Hollywood friend in Chris Rock would have had no idea.
