Nearly 3 months after the slap heard around the world first shook airwaves, the altercation between Will Smith and Chris Rock continues to be a hot topic in Hollywood.

But, beyond Smith’s highly publicized apologies, the two entertainment legends have been fairly mum on the historic incident – a situation Jada Pinkett-Smith is hoping changes soon.

As viewers know, Will’s on-stage assault of Rock came after the comedian cracked a joke about Jada’s bald head (which was later revealed to be the result of a bout with alopecia).

During a recent episode of her EMMY-winning Facebook Watch talk show ‘Red Table Talk,’ Pinkett-Smith dished in detail about the emotional and physical impact of the autoimmune disorder on her life before briefly addressing the infamous Oscars ordeal.

And Depp has won in a unanimous verdict read out in a Virginia courtroom.

As the age-old adage goes: time heals all wounds.

And while that may not be the case for some, it is the case for former 3LW members Naturi Naughton and Adrienne Houghton. 

Together with Kiely Williams, the ladies made up the members of the 00s R&B ensemble

With hits such as ‘No More’ and ‘Playas Gon’ Play’ under their belt, the group looked poised to break new ground in an ever-competitive music landscape.

Those plans were halted when Naughton dramatically left the group amidst ample drama and a flying bucket of KFC. The latter of which has remained somewhat of a Pop culture mystery – given the alternate accounts uttered by all involved. 

She was replaced by Jessica Benson for a brief spell before 3LW disbanded and two of its members went on to form The Cheetah Girls.

In 2017, Houghton apologized to Naughton live on The Real. Now, the ladies appear to be mending fences the more.
