*Chris Rock reportedly cut his comedy set short and stormed off stage during billionaire Anthony Pratt’s recent holiday party in Australia.
While joking about politics, Rock noticed someone recording him, prompting his abrupt exit. Sources said this resulted in an unexpected shortened set at the VIP event.
According to the New York Post’s Gossip columnist Cindy Adams, Rock “saw something the audience did not” and that “upset him.”
“Like he went momentarily ape and shouted something like he wasn’t supposed to be taped, videoed, reported or whatever else wasn’t supposed to happen,” Adams reported.
Rock allegedly “didn’t complain, didn’t explain, didn’t do one more minute” of his set before “barrelling quickly, forcefully, through people to the exit doors.”
“He kept b-tching loudly and, without a second’s hesitation, stormed out — never to return,” Adams wrote.
Meanwhile, Rock recently revived his classic 2000’s live-action sitcom “Everybody Hates Chris” with a new animated series that debuted on Comedy Central in September.
The comedian stars in and serves as an executive producer on the show “Everybody Still Hates Chris.” The funnyman, who was the narrator in the original series, reprises his role, along with “Everybody Hates Chris” mainstays Terry Crews and Tichina Arnold, who played Chris’ parents Julius and Rochelle.
The new half-hour animated show finds Rock providing the voice for adult Chris, narrating stories “inspired by his experience growing up as a skinny nerd in a large working-class family in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, during the late 1980s,” per the synopsis.
