Who is G.I. Jane?

G.I. Jane was an action movie in 1997 that featured Demi Moore as the lead character named Lieutenant Jordan O'Neil.

In the movie, Demi Moore was the first woman to go through the arduous Navy Seal training. During the training, she showed more grit than her male counterparts.

In an effort to solidify her status as a Navy Seal, she shaved her head and become the symbol of G.I. Jane.

Why was G.I. Jane mentioned at Oscars 2022?

At Oscars 2022, comedian Chris Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head while he was speaking on stage.

Chris told her: "Jada, can't wait for G.I. Jane 2."

He made this joke in reference to the character played by Demi Moore in the G.I. Jane film, where she also had a shaved head.

After Chris made that statement, Jada's husband, Will Smith, immediately stormed the stage to hit Chris Rock in the face.

Will may have been upset because it was a well-known fact that Jada had suffered from alopecia, since she had previously opened up about it to the public.
