, Smith apologized to the Academy and his fellow nominees, and drew parallels between himself and Williams, saying he was standing up for his family. “I want to apologize to the Academy. I want to apologize to all my fellow nominees,” he said before adding, “Just like they said, I look like the crazy father, just like they said about Richard Williams. But love will make you do crazy things.”
The moment sent the Dolby Theater into a stunned panic and caused a firestorm on Twitter. A few minutes later, P Diddy tried to defuse the situation, saying: “Will and Chris, we’re going to solve this like family at the Gold Party.”reporter Rebecca Ford reported that Washington played mediator in the situation.
It’s not the first time Rock has made a joke about the couple’s at the Oscars. When Rock hosted the Oscars in 2016, he brought the couple up in the context of the #OscarsSoWhite boycott, which Pinkett Smith supported. “Jada’s going to boycott the Oscars? Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting
the idea of jada leaving him. and him thinking 'if i dont do this, people will think im a bitch'.
I am going with black on black crime
After a year of being a meme about emasculation it was very obviously an attempt at emotionally rebranding.
Seems to me, this was an assault. Wonder why he wasn’t arrested?
He did not. It’s fake.
Jada pulling Will's strings.
WillSmith be like
I like Will Smith.... but I don't think anyone saw that coming.
Looks like Miami Beach...
Will Smith having psychological issues that he has yet to address?
It was violence! RealWillSmithFP interpreted it as protecting family! Protecting family is what people in Ukrain are doing! Protecting family against chrisrock? Seriously, dude! Would you do the same in front of JASONMOMOA_TH0? no_violence oscar no_war ethics peace
cnn maybe Jada was worried someone would joke about her hair. Will said no they would b/c I’m here and I will punch them. Then Rock said what he said and . Boom… just glad he didn’t call her names i.e. Marilyn Monroe or Heidi Klum
BaldHeadsMatter
Just 4 laughs imagine IF...Will Smith Had been white or if Chris had been white.. WW3 would be ON TODAY. If Rock is. WHITE? IT'S Derrick Chauvin 2.oh . IF Smith is white? Lynch THAT uppity N%$R aMErica ..never fails to fail...miserably
It's called bullying and assault. No excuses
All this entanglement, ended with a selfie.
It is right and great action from husband
Will has some serious anger issues?
I’ve never voted in an election (all rigged for the elite) but I will weigh in dozens of times on Will vs Chris
Whatever ‘reason’, violence is, and will always be, unacceptable
'In West Philadelphia born and raised On the playground was where I spent most of my days...'
Will Smith if it was The Rock telling that joke
Skilfull 😂
Will was laughing at Chris’s hair joke, then Jada rolled her eyes, then Will released testosterone, then walked on stage and slapped a surprised and amused Chris, then said the f word live, then babbled about a vessel. Billionaire stuff.
If 'love can make one do crazy things'. Let's see the crazy thing Rock's wife will do
..well done Will..no need to feel bad or apologize..you were on the receiving end. One can joke but not at the expense of someone else.
The Will DeepWater Smith. PrimeVideo is genius
The problem with this whole situation is having a loved one dealing with an autoimmune disease is heartbreaking. So for someone to so callously make fun of them in front of millions of people is so hurtful you don’t even understand. I hate violence. I hate insensitivity more.
Of course, it's not good to joke about something like this, but people shouldn't touch others, it's better to solve the problem another way
Why wasn't Smith asked to leave after this attack?
Will should have been arrested
Wow Time!
Does he have bipolar? He was laughing at the joke, then got up to assault a guy, while millions watched. Ban him for life. Don't promote violence.
Not ok Will! He was laughing at the joke at first but then sees his wife's reaction and does this but he didn't need to put his hands on that man!! Cuss him out ok but it wasn't necessary to hit him and I feel bad for Chris Rock! Smh
Looks fake and staged as hell
Y’all are so easy. I swear they knew this was staged. Everything in me says this whole thing was discussed before the show
Sure, make an excuse for him Time.
Rock has been harassing the entire Smith family for years. This was long overdue and WellDeserved welldonewillsmith
The lack of interest in the Oscars...
If Will Smith were white, he would be canceled right now. But black hits black is legal and does not violate human rights. This is not a comment on the justice or injustice of punching; is a commentary on media and political hypocrisy
Unfortunately I don’t remember anyone else who won last night. Oscars 2022 has only one story.
Staged
Bad jokes?' Invite somebody from the Vatican next year, that'll solve it 🙃
Difficult to say.
Sorry Will, but I don't believe for one second that God 'called you' to get up out of your seat, walk up on stage, slap Chris and sit back down cursing all the way back. Claiming that you are overwhelmed with what God is calling you to do and be in this world? Nope!
Jada still banged another dude that night since Tupac would have shot him on the spot. cuck HowComeSheDontWantMe slap Oscars
I hear will was diagnosed with Ligma
A badly timed and executed joke.
VIOLENCE SHOULD NEVER BE CONDONED UNLESS FOR DEFENSE! This was broadcast in front of MILLIONS of people..!! Shame on Will!
nothing led him, he is just an animal, he dont deserve any consideration or excuses. Whats wrong with you people getwillsmithoscarback dontdeserveit
ChrisRock crossed aline joking about someone's illness. Oscars are awards for movies not roasting. How humiliating you could see the hurt on her face. The casual acceptance of mean words has a far more hurtful effect than a slap AcademyAwards2022 Oscars2022 Alopecia Oscars
ChrisRock made a tasteless joke. Yup. But WillSmith turned the Oscars into The SourceAwards of 2000 by committing assault, afterwards he then pulls a Jimmy Swaggart. Bet he wished he had a Neuralyzer. Oscar Oscars2022
tncubuka Chris just proved that he is smarter than Will.
Anger, aggression, violence, inability to control emotions, sense that he won’t be punished etc
Ima leave this here...
It's f*cking Junk joke... it's body shaming... i stand with Will Smith
Type Beat
Imagine this happend to Ricky Gervais 🤣🤣🤣. How would he have responded ?
I understand Will.
He was putting him to default setting after crossing the red line
Physical assault is never right and should not be condoned. Will Smith should be charged, period. This was akin to a king hit, just cowardly. He could have used words instead to make his point, but chose violence instead.
I don't understand what the fuss is about. It's not like Will Smith is white! He'll get to keep his Oscar
He was being 2pac
Bullying other people is something cannot stand even if it's a joke.
This one is easy. He's lost it. He is totally unhinged after what he did to Oscars first, calling it 'so white', what Jada did to him, so he can't even take jokes anymore. He has become 'Hancock'. Or mr white knight. He and Rock used to be friends. Not anymore.
Oscars really sunk low
Previously poor viewing figures for the show?
Hey, Ted Cruz, this is the knee-jerk reaction a man does when someone insults his wife. Not that it's right, but it's more understandable than turning around and endorsing him.
Childish attention seeker 🙄
Could've been worse....could've been after Smith had gotten hold of his oscar...or worse yet...could've been Alec Baldwin's wife.
I don’t care who u are but Smith should never have slapped Rock. That was totally wrong!
What if it’s fake ?
So a black man was physically assaulted on stage and then the attacker was given a massive round of applause moments later. BidensAmerica
Jada sleeping with other men and Will feeling emasculated.
The fact he's weak and, despite being a 'comic', couldn't take a joke. I'd sue his ass if I was chrisrock
Chris Rock getting the career boost he needs though.
Chris rock vc......slap august shii he had more than her name in his mouth 😳
