Charlie Villanueva, Who Also Battled Alopecia, Sides With Smith, Rips Chris Rock For Oscars Joke
Former NBA player Charlie Villanueva had a pretty lengthy and more than decent NBA career.
While many people remember him for his unreal 48-point game as a rookie, others remember him for his hairlessness. But this hasn’t been by choice; Villanueva has always battled with alopecia, the same dermatological problem Jada Pinkett Smith is facing.
This is why Charlie V now sided with Smith and also is said to be very furious at Chris Rock for his joke at the Academy Award that he famously got slapped for by Will Smith.
She voiced that she struggled with [Alopecia], and Chris Rock thought it was cool to crack a joke,” Villanueva said. “We are not with Jada everyday to know the level of the struggle, but Will does.”
“As I don’t condone violence, Im proud that Will Smith stood up for his wife.”
