Just about everyone on the planet knows the story of Nicole Brown Simpson and her ex-husband, former NFL superstar OJ Simpson. The former Buffalo and 49ers running back was at the center of Nicole's murder trial back in 1994.
Nicole was stabbed in the neck and scalp seven times outside her home, along with Ron Goldman. OJ Simpson and Nicole were married for seven years before divorcing as there were several reports of abuse towards Nicole from the former running back.

The court case went on for eight months and was very public, gripping the entire nation. However, the former running back was sensationally acquitted of the murders, but was ordered to pay $33.5 million in damages to the Goldman family. That's odd, isn't it?
Chris Rock's joke about Nicole Brown Simpson sparks outrage
The life of a comedian can be hard as they have to be extremely careful with the material they use.
Chris Rock got in trouble some months ago for his joke about Will Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, referring to her baldness, at the Academy Awards. As a result of his joke, Will Smith walked up to him and slapped Rock in the face.
He is now back among the headlines for the wrong reasons due to something he said in his stand-up show in Phoenix on Sunday.
During his show, Rock said that he would not return to the Academy Awards. He said that it would be similar to Nicole Brown Simpson going back to the restaurant where she left her glasses before being killed, as per azcentral.com.
As expected, Rock's joke caused a lot of uproar, with many taking to social media to give their thoughts on it.
It remains to be seen whether Rock will apologize for his joke or not, and Nicole's family will likely not be too pleased either.
The murder trial captivated the entire globe during its entire course and many believe that it tarnished all the great work that OJ did on the football field. He is a Hall of Famer, a five-time All-Pro, and a six-time Pro Bowler, along with being the NFL MVP in 1973 after his 2003 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns.
