American comedian and actor Chris Rock disclosed that he won’t even think about addressing Will Smith assaulting him at the Oscars until he receives money.

According to Palm Springs Desert Sun, Rock told a live audience Friday that he will not talk about the incident until he is compensated for it.

“I’m OK, I have a whole show and I’m not talking about that until I get paid. Life is good. I got my hearing back,” Rock added.

During the event, he took shots at several celebrities and politicians such as Hilary Clinton, the Kardashians, and Meghan Markle, but made no reference to the slap.

He also spoke about being a father, his interpersonal relationship, corporations embracing persity, and people being afraid of offending anyone.

Rock is currently on his “Ego Death” tour and is set to perform at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas May 7-8 and July 3.

He will also hold a show at Harrah’s Resort Southern California in northern San Diego County on August 27 and returns to the Dolby Theatre for three shows on November 17-19.
