’32.. It hits you hard!’ – West Ham striker Michail Antonio brilliantly uses Will Smith’s Oscars slap in birthday post
WEST HAM striker Michail Antonio hilariously put his face on a photo of Will Smith's Oscars slap to celebrate his 32nd birthday.
The Hammers forward made light of the huge story after Hollywood star Smith smacked comedian Chris Rock for making a joke about his wife Jade Pinkett Smith.
And Antonio used the still image of Smith whacking Rock but edited it so it showed the number 32 hitting him in the face instead.
He the hilarious photo and added the caption: "32, it hits you hard! Thanks for the messages people 🎂."
And messages poured in from West Ham fans as they wished their star striker a happy birthday.
One Hammers supporter said: "Happy birthday! Keep banging in those goals and assists and age is just a number."
