Chris Rock: “I Touched Oprah
In Good Hair, Chris Rock’s amusing documentary for HBO, the jester and a gang of pre-eminent personalities discuss the extremes men and Women will go to to straighten African-American hair. One of the big management jokes of the haziness is that because of the complexity of a “weave,” African-American Women do not want their mane Touched. But Rock told PEOPLE that when he appeared on Oprah, “I ran my hands through her hair. I scheme it was nice,” he said.
When Asked if he might finger on Ashanti’s ameliorate coif at the Cinema Society and Target screening of his membrane in New York - she showed up with one opinion of her ringlets woven into corn rows and the other straightened into heavy-set curls - Rock answered, “No, you can’t execution that!”, before turning to the chorus-member to tell her that “Your hair’s great.” Ashanti told PEOPLE of her coif that night, “It took dialect mayhap 45 minutes,” mentioning that it had been inspired by an asymmetrical coif that Pepa of Salt ‘n Pepa was once also phony to don after being burned by a perm, and losing the tresses on one viewpoint of her head. “Tonight, we muddled it up,” said Ashani, “I didn’t want to torch it. It’s braids and curls. And, no. you can’t apply that.
” Pepa, also in the documentary, admitted inventing that outstanding class of asymmetrical hairdo. “I got a unruly perm one time,” she said. “And I burned off half of my hair. I had to scrape it off. I was completely crying. I was destroyed.
And Salt was infuriating to pencil it back in.” At the Standard Hotel afterparty, with his galpal Coco on his arm, Ice-T admitted to an even more disconcerting front for such a refractory guy, a tankard projectile with “curlers in my hair” when he was arrested some 20 years back. –Jeffrey Slonim.
