"I am calling a board meeting for this Friday morning, April 8, at 9:00 am PT, rather than the previously scheduled April 18 meeting, to address possible sanctions for Will Smith in response to his actions during the Oscars broadcast on March 27," Academy president David Rubin stated in a letter obtained by CNN Wednesday.
According to the letter, in light of Smith resigning from the Academy last Friday, "suspension or expulsion are no longer a possibility and the legally prescribed timetable no longer applies." Smith slapped Rock after the comic and actor made a joke from the Oscars stage about Jada Pinkett Smith's close-cropped hair.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I already made a decision for you Academy.. It called wiping his name from history books. I already deleted all his music, tv show and movies that he appeared in.
Ok can we please move on, with better news, this is ridiculous
You have to ‘meet’ and decide his faith?
Why don't they just MANDATE a suspension!..lol
“Sanctions” 😂
🥱
Will Smith Sanctions
So the word 'sanction ' is applied to actors now? New buzzword? Let it go no one cares what happens in that bubble world
File this on my, “who gives a flying fadoo list.” This is barely Toronto Sun, National Enquirer worthy.
Sanctions is clearly the word of the year.
Not too much to debate, termination is expected
careful it might just backfire on your academy
Hope he just left and go home to Africa. Away from you’ll. He was protecting his wife.
Love how this is relevant news when other parts of the world are still at war
Why doesn't Hollywood start by putting 'sanctions' on the numerous pedophiles who've won Oscars?
Ooohh what are they going to do? No $2.5 million swag bag next year? Pay for his own food? Forced to apologize on the red carpet? Gimme a break, who gives AF?
Who cares
Will & Jada were attack verbally at an award ceremony, that was set out to award Will. The Academy has allowed a comedian to mentally harm Will & Jada resulting in defamation of character through the media. I for one would not be putting up with any of this. It is disgusting!
Will Smith: 'Keep my wife's name out yo mout' Also Will Smith: 'but by all means, stick your wiener inside it. all 10 of you guys'
Sanction him? After giving him a standing ovation at the awards?
'sanctions' is the hot word right now, lets throw it everywhere we can.
I won't watch another movie in theatre until will has been cast into a new movie.
