Publish date: 2024-05-31

Chris Rock certainly turned quite a few heads with his recently released Netflix special, Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, where he tackled several hot topics.

One of the more candid moments he had was when he discussed being a father to his two daughters, Lola, 20, and Zahra, 18, whom he shares with ex-wife Malaak Compton-Rock.

In the special, while still showing his love for his two girls, he didn't hesitate to comment on them being "rich and spoiled" based on the way they'd been raised.

"I love my kids, but I don't like them," he amusingly said. "I don't like them because they're rich. My kids are rich and spoiled."

He further added: "My kids are [expletive] spoiled. And I did it. Me and their mother, but I [expletive] did it," even saying that he wanted his kids to be "lost everytime they're in the hood."

The comedian continued: "I know some people are like 'Chris, you're rich.' Yeah, I'm rich. But I identify as poor. My pronouns are 'broke'."

Zahra took to social media soon after the Netflix special was released

While neither of his daughters have commented on the special, his daughter Zahra did share a rare post on social media, simply taking to her Instagram Stories with a picture by the beach.

Selective Outrage has already caused quite a stir with Chris' comments on topics such as Will Smith post the Oscars slap and Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's separation from the royal family.

"Who is this girl Meghan Markle? Seems like a nice lady - just complaining," Chris said.

"I'm like, 'What … is she talking about?' 'Oprah, they're so racist, they wanted to know how brown the baby was going to be.' I'm like, 'That's not racist,' 'cause even black people want to know how brown the baby gonna be."
