According to both TMZ and Fox News Digital, comedian Chris Rock caught a peeping tom filming him from his home’s fire escape and called the police on the intruder. He reportedly told the cops that “an unknown person went on to his fire escape” and was trying to film him at around 8 pm on Sunday, June 4th.
Fox News Digital’s source said that the alleged intruder “didn’t attempt to gain entry” to the SoHo apartment, but that “Rock said he saw him filming.” The NYPD report made a similar claim, saying that “The victim [Chris Rock] states he observed through his window an individual outside on the fire escape” and that “The man appeared to be filming.”
TMZ reports that the police quickly headed to Chris Rock’s SoHo home, but the alleged filmer was able to get away before they arrived, with one source claiming that he jumped down the fire escape and made a getaway in a white Mercedes. The New York Post, in its report on the incident, claimed that the suspect was wearing a dark jacket and pink Crocs.
While most of the creepy celebrity stalker videos come from Los Angeles, NYC is no stranger to such incidents. For example, a stalker named Roger Alvarado broke into Taylor Swift’s apartment in New York City’s Tribeca neighborhood not once but twice. In one incident, he was found napping in her bed after showering in her shower.
Other than this stalker incident, Rock made the news most recently for his special, in which he jokes about the infamous slap incident at the 2022 Oscars, and for calling out the Democrats for wanting to arrest Trump.
Speaking about Trump’s arrest while hosting an event at the Kennedy Center honoring Adam Sandler with the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, Rock said, “Are you guys really going to arrest Trump? Do you know this is only going to make him more popular? It’s like arresting Tupac. He’s just gonna sell more records. Are you stupid?”
Rock also mocked Will Smith over the slap incident in his recent special, saying that Rock has “selective outrage,” and mocking him for standing up for his cheating wife. Beginning, Rock said, “Will Smith practices selective outrage because everyone that knows what happened, everybody that really knows, knows I had nothing to do with that s***. I didn’t have any entanglements. His wife was f***** her son’s friend.”
Continuing, he joked about how dumb Will and Jada Smith were for talking about her affair on the internet and explained why he joked about the situation, saying, “Now I normally wouldn’t talk about this s***. But for some reason these n****** put that s*** on the internet. I have no idea why two talented people would do something that f***** low down. What the f***.”
He then continuing on that point in a vulgar way, mocking Jada for being absolutely horrible and Will for being a cuckold that tamely say by while it all happened, saying, “We’ve all been cheated on, everybody in here has been cheated on. None of us have been interviewed by the person that cheated on us on television, like, ‘Hey I was sucking somebody else’s d***, how did that make you feel?’ Why the f*** would you do that s***?”
