During the April 1 episode of HBO Real Time With Bill MahereBill downplayed Jada’s struggle with her hair loss due to alopecia, suggesting that she should have “wearing a wig” if the condition was of such concern to the actress.

“I mean, if you’re lucky enough in life to have a medical problem, just say ‘Thank God,'” Bill said of Jada’s alopecia. “It’s not life-threatening. You know, for most people it’s the part — 80 percent men, 50 percent women — it’s part of aging. Trust me, I know — it’s the degradation of flesh. It happens to all of us.” He continued, “And, you know, put on a af**king wig like everyone else at the Oscars if it bothers you too much. I mean, all of us — as we get older, we get worse.” And you do your best to deal with it.”
One of his panelists, Lawyer Laura Coates, prompting Jada to defend herself by giving a woman’s perspective about the autoimmune condition. “I think there’s probably a part of him that has become very empowered by being vocal about his alopecia and saying, ‘Look, I own this, I’m shaving my head. I feel like I I’m going to take it by the horns,’ Laura said. “And maybe those quiet moments with her husband when he’s seeing and hearing the more personal aspect of it.”
Bill Maher Said Jada Should “Just Put On A Wig”? Has he always been so insensitive? Does he understand what hair means to women—for black and all women? Not every woman has the outstanding characteristics that Jada has,

Bill Maher talking about Jada Pickett Smith and her alopecia is pathetic.

Bill quickly replied, “It’s a condition just like life is a condition. S**t is when you go down the path of life, and physically, it’s not going to be all roses. It’s just not And then, at the scale that I need to worry or feel sorry, I can’t get there.
Well, let’s say it didn’t go down well with fans, as they took to social media to share their displeasure with Bill’s “insensitive” comments. One Twitter user wrote, “Who is this pr*ck he thinks he is. Nothing lucky about any medical or other conditions affecting people,” as another shared, “Bill Maher Said Jada should “just put on a wig”? Has he always been so insensitive? Does he understand what hair means to women—black and to all women? Jada-like best features in every woman are not.” A third follower kept it short and sweet, posting, “Bill Maher is talking about Jada Pickett Smith and her alopecia is pathetic.”
Yes! Somebody finally said it! My hair is thinning so don’t come near me but I was like alopecia? There are people acting like she has cancer (which has happened to me too). Sick of these professional “victims”! Not to mention, I can’t even believe she has alopecia! https://t.co/cKIxQ8JZvH

However, some favored the bill, as a recent tweet read, “Yeah! Somebody finally said it! My hair is thinning so don’t come near me but I was like alopecia? People are acting like he has cancer (which has happened to me too). Sick of these professional “victims”!”

i am putting @chrisrock in the same category @Bilmaher, They go for the low-hanging balls joke. Old tired sexist and out of touch. How Javier couldn’t win before the inane Jada jokes that he’ll piss off Penelope. Really? The best you can do? Lame!

Why is Bill Maher going after Jada? He didn’t slap anyone, and people are allowed to hurt feelings. I really recommend staying away from people who make a habit of telling others how to deal with their emotional mess.
So common misadventure, that.

Look, this is why I don’t like Bill Maher. He arrogantly gives his opinion about things he does not understand and does not understand that he does not understand. https://t.co/G27k2HUu9P

I am not part of 56%. Jada could use the opportunity for good. Instead, she made herself and her husband look like idiots who should be cut out of art altogether. Alopecia my ass. There are women who don’t have hair because they are dying. He’s just dying of foolishness.

Bill Maher’s only point here is that you can overcome insecurities by artificial means. He’s advising Jada Pinkett Smith to use a wig the same way she uses applause. https://t.co/moy7IumnAN
