Will Smith has issued an apology after slapping Chris Rock on the Oscars stage Sunday night.

The altercation happened when Rock took the stage to present the best documentary award and made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith being in a sequel to. Pinkett Smith has been open about the fact that she has alopecia, which causes hair loss. Smith then ran on stage, slapping Rock and quickly returning to his seat."Keep my wife's name out of your f****** mouth!" Smith yelled once he was seated.

The moment stunned viewers, who took to social media as it wasn't immediately clear whether the altercation was a skit or not. Just a few moments later, Smith won the Oscar for best actor for his performance in"I want to apologise to the Academy. I want to apologise to all my fellow nominees. This is a beautiful moment and I'm not crying for winning an award. It's not about winning an award for me. It's about being able to shine a light on all of the people.

During commercial breaks, both Smith's publicist and Denzel Washington were seen talking to the actor. In his speech, Smith shared the advice Washington gave him:"At your highest moment, be careful, that's when the devil comes for you." Smith continued,"I'm being called on in my life to love people and to protect people and to be a river to my people. I know to do what we do, you got to be able to take abuse. You got to be able to have people talk crazy about you. In this business you got to be able to have people disrespecting you. And you got to smile and you got to pretend like that's okay." – Reuters

You pariah !!

Nobody will pull a joke on this dude from Now on…. Don’t know how to keep calm.

Expecting the same from Chris now.

Think before you act.

No one should make fun of other people's misfortune especially the medical that they have no control. What Will did was morally right to protect his wife from being ridiculed. I would have done the same thing.

great actor indeed!

When someone calls your wife GI Jane, its a compliment. Only when they call your wife Rosmah , you should slap them

yeah love can make you do crazy things...
