Former Charlotte Journalist Sits Down With Chris Rock’s Mother
A former Charlotte Journalist is making history by getting Chris Rock’s mother’s reaction to the slap heard around the world.
Meet Billie Jean Shaw. A lot of you remember Billie Jean when she worked at WCNC. This amazing journalist is now an anchor in the same place we met, Columbia, South Carolina. My girl Billie has landed some big interviews and this week was no different.
Rose “Mama” Rock was in town for a speaking engagement. Billie Jean jumped right into action as she normally would for an interview. I’m sure the world wanted to know “Mama” Rose’s opinion on the slap heard around the world. Billie Jean got that answer for us all.
***WATCH MY EXCLUSIVE*** For the first time since the #OscarsSlap Rose Rock, the mother of Chris Rock is speaking out about the incident. During our interview, she explains how Will and Jada Smith's actions hurt her and her family. @wis10 https://t.co/xhBEdu8VbS
