Denzel breaks his silence on his involvement in the immediate aftermath of the Will Smith-Chris Rock slap.

He adds,"Conversely, when the devil comes at you, maybe it's because you're trying to do something right. And for whatever reason, the devil got ahold of him that night." Denzel also explains others were quick to step in and attend to Will too -- whom he apparently felt was in need of spiritual counseling -- includingDenzel declined to disclose what exactly was said among the trio, but he did say this ..."There but for the grace of God, go any of us.

DW described the moment right afterward,"I couldn't have sat in my seat. No way I could have sat in my seat. That's just not who I am." This was evident right away, because Denzel was photographed getting in between Chris and Will in the immediate aftermath.
