A Deep Dive Into The Will Smith Slap - (Documentary) 

Will Smith vs. Chris Rock

hope you're having a good day

If you love doing videos in this style, PLEASE KEEP DOING IT! I think it's great! ✌🏻

I love this docu-reaction type video!! You should definitely do more in future 👍

This was a really great video. You should be proud of it! Keep being amazing! ♥

How convenient for you to forget the part where Jim Carrey sexually assaulted Alicia Silverstone on stage when he excepted an award for the cable guy. He’s a hypocrite for criticizing Will Smith.

Celebrities are so fake and depraved. Society has been getting worse and worse the more influence they have on our lives.

To be fair, it seems like most Hollywood people just go to where they’re expected to be, and their agents tell them to not start shit with anyone. Just go and make an appearance, the show must go on, etc.

Also, I don’t get why everyone is surprised. It’s not called holly weird for their high morality…. I can’t believe that THIS is the straw that broke the camel’s back -.-

@@shai2137 It's Chinawood now. Chinese investors and markets dictate a lot of what "Holly"wood says or does these days.

I guess that’s why he’s called Chris ROCK

@@williamjackson4222 damn you beat me to it by 34 seconds

@@aprayingatheist2378 Smart minds think alike

Are U xenophobic then???🥴bc Chris ever said bunch of racist remarks to Asian kids during 2016 Oscar & never apologies at all (U giving respect to person racist to another POC mean you're a racists itself)

@@tkarina829 Honey, let me call you an Uber, okay?

she doesnt seem impressed at all by wills efforts 😂

She sucks so bad! If you watch those Red Table videos, she drones on and on about her "journey of self-discovery" (a.k.a. having an affair) while Will sits there smiling with tears in his eyes.

They are both gross narcissistic self centered people and completely deserve each other

It's because she's toxic AF. I'm not even a WS/Jada fan because I don't worship celebrities... I'm old. I digress. But as an old a** human, it has been obvious for some time that he has been slowly breaking down emotionally and doing so very publicly. I don't care what year it is, a man is a man and this man and his manhood is embarrassed and disrespected repeatedly by his wife , publicly. And to make it worse - she has no remorse and seems to enjoy it. *She* could have stopped this. She could have stood up and stopped him from going on stage. You know your man. She knew what he was going to do. That's what grown a** women do. She enjoys humiliating him. He bears a huge amount of responsibility , obviously - *but* men aren't only here to protect their women. We as women in relationships can and do protect our men . She did *not* protect him.

@@mcbby7 entanglement 😅

I don't think there's a lack of understanding that you can't hit people. It's a lack of control, not of understanding or intelligence.

@@FirstnameLastname-gr5kb agreed, which makes it worse tbh cause a grown man should have more control than pre-schoolers

he understands, he knows he can get away with it. I would have pressed charges just to piss him off

Yeah but how do we really know this was the only joke?

This isn't the first time he's made comments about Will's family. Also a bad comment made person to person is different than someone making a bad joke about your loved one on live television for millions to see and hear.

I liked the joke, it was bad in your opinion. You call it a bad joke but I call it the best joke.

"And I thought my jokes were bad." *- Heath Ledger*

@@pepeteriyaki3779 I think he means that it was in bad taste, not that it wasn’t funny

Jada be like "do you want me to cheat again?"

Will did that to get out of the guest house…

This is a valid take, but Jada has been very open for the past few years about her struggle with alopecia, and it’s something that I feel that Chris Rock may have been aware of. At a minimum, it was a really off color joke especially as directed towards a black woman because black women constantly face criticism over their hair choices (Chris rock should be especially aware of this point because he made a really great documentary in 2009 called “Good Hair” about black women’s hair, which also featured a woman who had alopecia) EDIT: Not at all trying to justify the slap itself - the violence was completely uncalled for. I was only intending to highlight how embarrassing this joke may have been in the context of what Jada is going through.

@@hautetopic6254 From what I've heard, Chris Rock said he didn't know about the alopecia.

@@hautetopic6254 How egotistical do you have to be to automatically think that everyone knows your life story JUST because you tweet about it all the time?

@@hautetopic6254 she is not a victim. People make fun of bald people all the time but oh no can’t make fun of the bald black woman who openly cheats on her husband and is a toxic woman nah nah can’t talk trash about that lady nope nope And these two idiots trying to make it about race no one cares that she’s black Melinda

@@hautetopic6254 I agree 100% that it was definitely NOT a funny joke - and was offensive even if Rock did not know about the alopecia. Jada does not look bald and it's very likely that Chris Rock isn't watching Jada's show or following her IG. *Jada is GORGEOUS with ANY hair style.* So I'm *hoping* he didn't make the joke to be deliberately cruel. Thank you for bringing up the discrimination Black women have faced regarding their hair and the fact that Rock knows how sensitive the topic is. If JADA had walked on stage and got in Rock's face (without using hands...there is no justification for violence in this situation), EVERYONE would have cheered her on.

Yeahp! I can already see Jada giving him that “okay, I’m calling August tonight” look.

Then they might try to do the same next year. Except nobody would watch it.

And notice how few people talked about the ratings for this year's show. I told my coworker that people will be watching next year to find out who gets punched.

In a 1996 comedy special, Chris Rock talked about the two types of African-Americans - "Black people and Niggaz" (his words, not mine) and how Black people hated Niggazs cause they ruined everything for Black people. I wonder which category he would put Will Smith in now that he ruined the Oscars for Black people? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f3PJF0YE-x4.html

Dude I think Chris and Jada were a thing behind wills back, there was just too much emotion when he screams “Keep my wife’s name out of your mouth”

Thank you, GI Jane is an inspiring female character, it shouldn't have been seen as an insult but she is insecure of her condition, I didnt know she had it until now. I thought she just chose to have short hair

I have alopecia- God I WISH someone would make a GI Jane reference to me... She was iconic. I suspect Jada is unbearably self absorbed and takes herself VEEEEERRRRRRYYYYYY seriously. Lord.

@@themoonsharksquirrel8937 I agree. Jada doesn't seem to have a humble bone in her body. She doesn't want to be the butt of a joke. She thinks she's above that. GI Jane was a fine joke (granted the actress cheated on her husband with a younger man so I wonder if Jada immediately that about that)

Jada has a huge ego though

My ex had it. Literally destroyed her whole hairline. Jada got that crisp line up bitch no one can assume u have it🤣🤣😭

That's what 99% of the population was thinking when it came on the news

Exact same thing happened to me, i woke up on the 28th of March and all over my home page on RU-vid was people talking about Will Smith and Chris Rock.

same. this is the most intereating oscars to date and that isnt parricularly a gd thing

I didnt know about Oscars either. But I ended up watching some of it...dont recognize the movies. Are we going to have a youtube award ceremony? Or does it already exist?

Same! 😂

Ridiculous tbh

Also Rick Ross made hella metaphors his feature was not needed

@@alovesubliminal2227 so unnecessary 😅

lol what?

Deep inside

Ya I think we're living in the best timeline tbh, a lot worse things have happened in history than a fucking celeb being harassed on twitter 😂 Look I've seen most those tweets and a lot of this "victim" celebs where spouting absolute bullshit about how it's perfectly okay to assault someone because of a joke, that's the kind of shit that will lead us to the worst timeline.

@@Trinket_MasterI agree other things are more important, but for our industry, we just got back up after COVID, (from a person at the bottom standpoint) these 'celebs' are unfortunately also who keep us employed, without them...no one would watch what we make.

@@rubydoo3307 thats not true in the slightest, you should have more respect for yourself than that. Having a celeb in a movie is a big boost but it's not what makes it. You think any of these rich, pampered morons could do what you do? No they couldn't. Their face gets plastered on the poster but your skills are what bring the piece together. I think the very simplest way of proving your mind set wrong is to look at anime, most western audience members couldn't name a single Japanese actor yet there are shows with fandoms on the level of star wars like Dragon ball, everyone who starred in that show was a nobody including the actors, it still did bits and is one of the most well known piece of media in animation history. Actors are over rated, it's you guys "on the bottom" that make the magic happen and they would be nowhere without you. It's why I don't support things like the oscars, it's nothing but rich people sucking off other rich people, claiming all the glory for something that was arguable the most easily replacable role in production. Sorry for ranting but I don't care if your a camera man or a vfx guy, your worth skill is worth more than any actor when creating a movie

Yeah true. The moment I saw that Serena Williams movie trailer I knew whoever got nominated from that movie would win, cause the US is kinda obsessed with their athletes in a borderline nationalistic amount. The Oscars are politics, that's why people have stopped caring.

@@folded_pizza this is without a doubt the best explanation for why the Oscar’s and other award shows are going downhill, and I’ve never seen it stated this way!

I howled

They so need to bring that show back lol

That would actually be something I watched lol

I’d actually want to watch that 🤣

Hell yeah

"I'll allow it!"

I don't know why every single issue has to be bipartisan either, but Will was absolutely most in the wrong here. Even if neither are good people for what they did there's still a discernible difference between saying something in poor taste and hitting someone. The twisted tea incident is a situation where I found myself on the other side of the fence, the dude was literally repeatedly slurring the guy and asking to be hit before trying to kick the mans tea away, so he deserved that and got nothing short of what he was literally asking for. Chris made a joke about hair...

shut up, there is sides now pick one

@@ALmaN11223344 Exactly. There's a huge difference between telling a albeit offensive joke (if Chris knew about Jada's condition. He may have or may not have known.) Otherwise it was literally just a joke about, in his understanding, Jada's choosen hairstyle choice. While Will literally assaulted someone over Words. Than verbally barated the person he'd assaulted to shut up. One is definitely worst.

Because Chris did nothing wrong. He compared a woman with shaved short hair to a woman with shaved short hair. That's like the tamest joke ever.

I said the same thing op.

Thanks for breaking it to chapters, my guy!

bless you - this should be in the video description

Right. Imagine if it was Kanye. They’d call him “crazy,” or “dangerous” and probably carry him out. TF GOING ON 😖😩😒

@@mimishandle That's because Kanye has more of a record of being outrageous. Will slapped a dude.

@@jazzspider8569 "O-one person can get away with assault because they have less of a record being outrageous!!" look how you sound judging the difference in the way the law works. It's supposed to treat people equally. You downplay televised assault on a comedian who was bullied as a child and had a learning difficulty (Chris Rock) because Will Smith doesn't say right wing things online. imagine. ah but "he just slapped a dude"

@@AdamOwenBrowning Damn bro it's almost like the law treats people based on their probability to commit a serious offense. Guess what, I had a learning issue and was bullied horribly for much of my school life, but you don't see me randomly bringing that up when stuff has nothing to do with that. I once had a guy actively threaten me with a deadly weapon in front of half of my school. Went dead silent. You want me to just scream "WAIT I HAD A LEARNING ISSUE AND BULLYING TRAMUA THIS MIGHT TRIGGER ME" No, I dealt with it, because functioning people grow with their tramua. I doubt that slap knocked him back to 6th grade. So he might have trauma from someone beating him in school? Most people have some sort of tramua, terribly sorry they have it, but he seemed fine not even A SECOND later. Him being bullied 20 years ago doesn't matter in any major way atm And idgaf what political side Kanye is as long as he isn't hateful I actually rather like Kanye, but he has a reputation for being unstable for good reason. It's literally just people judging based on prior evidence "Is this likely to get any worse if he isn't removed from the area?" That's my entire point Plus, once again It's literally just a slap. What kind of a pampered life do you have to live where a slap is worth such a big whoop Chris got over it, it would seem. Good for him. He actually has had a tough life and understands that it's just too people getting into a tiny bout that happened to be on the Oscars (Also this entire thing might have been staged so who knows at this point)

i get it, but to be fair to Jada, I'd rather her be open about her struggles and choices than her hiding it and pretending it doesn't exist. That would be more selfish, imo.

@@queenofzenk With the rest of the world? Sure, the two of them should be honest with each other, but why do that in the public eye?

Agreed. If she wanted to talk about the struggles of their marriage, it would've been ideal to talk about it between them because it's their relationship. She aired her dirty laundry out for people to see instead of really trying to work things out properly

@@queenofzenk lmao you’re talkin like you’re gonna be in the room while they’re having the convo. They could’ve kept that shit between themselves.

@@queenofzenk Why does this whole argument remind me of the Reynolds pamphlet in Hamilton lol

Think of it like this- he hears a joke that doesn't actually affect him directly, but it's aimed at his wife. He's expected to keep it professional and laugh it off, so he starts to...Then he sees his wife. Jada was devastated. I don't think she made him do anything and it's misogynoir to continue to drag Jada.

@@BelindaShort Um, his laugh wasn't a matter of keeping things professional. He genuinely found the joke funny until he saw that Jada wasn't happy.

@@BelindaShort you give her way too much humanity. She's made light of her own condition. Regardless, she has not and does not value the feelings of her loved ones in the way she expects they do for her. She's lost a lot of the respect of people in the last few years, and this certainly put a spotlight on what everyone was already thinking about her.

@@BelindaShort 'misogynoir'? I'm genuinely sorry but what's misogynoir?

@@BelindaShort what about this is misogynoir?

The idea that everyone MUST know about Jada alopecia is such so... egotistical. Just because she's a celebrity doesn't mean anyone should give a dam/n about her medical status. Like who actually cares what she or any other celebrity is doing with their life? Especially OTHER celebrities? They've got their own social medias to run and share weird personal information to act offended about when people don't know.

I agree that it’s unreasonable to expect everyone to know about her condition even when she has talked about it a lot. Unless Chris Rock and Will Smith were friends who have gone to each other’s homes, I wouldn’t expect him to know. And in this day and age, women celebrities shave their heads all the time sometimes just for fashion. I would never even Google why Jada is bald. That said, if Chris did know… I still don’t think it was a bad joke. GI Jane is a badass. Why would it be an insult to be compared to a badass?

i guess but jada and chris have been working together for years

@@coia-chan8314 You can work with someone and still not know about any medical conditions they have. Why would he lie about it? He could have said he knew but that Jada had been so strong and open about it that he compared her to a strong female character as a joking compliment that wasn't meant to hurt her and that he was sorry if it did. Totally acceptable to think that after reading (about) her posts on her situation.

@@coia-chan8314 I've worked with people for years who didn't know I had tourettes, so I don't find it hard to believe he wouldn't know about the alopecia.

He was really chill about it, like he got punched and then laughed it off

Honestly, same here. Can't believe that people are getting sent hate & are being "cancelled" for it like wtaf..

I don’t, Thats is what’s is expect it as a host

this is the right take

Word

Also, I have NEVER seen that woman with anything but short hair, I just thought it was a choice. The bubble you have to live in to be hosting a silly Facebook(!) show and assume that just because you you put everything- i mean EVERYTHING- out there about yourself that everyone must be interested and up to date on ever single thing about you. Were we supposed to all know she had alopecia? The woman MARRIED an A-lister, she’s not even a D-lister. But it apparently never occurred to Will or Jada that maybe her hair condition wasn’t the common knowledge they assumed? Imagine how full of yourself you have to be to have that audacity. Her hairstyle alone doesn’t suggest anything os wrong with her, its a common black hair style. That’s the part I can’t get over. People trying to defend Will or at least say Rock was a bit in the wrong… wtf? He wasn’t making fun of alopecia, he didn’t even know she had it. Was he supposed to someone do a deep dive into every target if his lighthearted roast? Will needs to be kicked out of the academy, and they both need to be humbled quite a bit. Of and he should probably deal with his feelings of emasculation from her airing all their private business just for “ratings” (cheap social media views) on a joke of one of the most irrelevant “talk shows” EVER.

thank you, exactly what u said

@@juliejanesmith57 The thing is Chris has a history with Jada and has made cracks about her hair before He's aware of her condition So nah, he wasn't unaware

@@jazzspider8569 I haven't seen anywhere where he's made jokes about her hair before but even if it is true he still may have not known.

Bruh, the slap William Smith would have given Christmas rock is still doing push ups to this day.

@@peekInsideThisHellOfMine 🤣🤣

Actually, that's more worse.

there has to be something else that we don't know about in order for him to react like that.

Not impulsive when he had to get up, walk up those steps . He knew what he was doing. Her laughing and smiling , the way Jada treats him over the years I have always felt bad for Will. She messed him up big time , he's just trying everything to please her .

I think it’s a mask and that night the mask slipped.

@@butterflyraine281 Wdym the way Jada treats him? What did she do wrong?

@@casie6609 uh she cheated on him with their son’s 20 year old friend and she’s still sleeping with other men,

selective mutism ??

When a wealthy person punch a comedian on stage, it's an act of love or man defending his woman and all the manly shit but if a normal average person has done this anywhere, it's classless, no manner, and assault. Chris's joke wasn't the funniest or the best but Will shouldn't be excused for his assault. Go up to the stage and talk about how it's hurtful to his wife and throw some shades at Chris, or go backstage and talk about it. Or his strong independent wife can speak for herself since she could freely aired out her entanglement. Her speaking up, instead of rolling her eyes and then loving it when someone gets punched, would have been very impactful and powerful in bringing awareness to her illness. Frankly the funniest joke someone told was when the celebrities were interviewed about their reactions and one woman said 'I guess it's different when you're making fun of a celebrity and when it's the celebrity's wife'. I mean I believe Jada thinks herself a celebrity too? So it was the most unintentional shade. But it's also show that not everyone follow her enough to know about her condition. So it could be possible that Chris and people involved with this joke had no idea either. Edit: and most men were saying how Will has been holding it in. I guess Chris was just the poor guy at the wrong place. Will probably needs therapy instead of red table talk. And the fact that people praising Will's violence as being a man and romantic is just so backward. If celebraties can be charged for assaulting paparazzi, they should be charged for slapping a comedian on stage for a joke. But it's Chris Rocks decision for not making charges so good for him, I guess.

@@mahogara not to mention the fact Chris didn’t write the joke.. it’s the Oscars. Do you know how many people would love to be in that position? Jada herself said she didn’t care is people made fun of her bald head. 👀 so her actions are confusing. Nothing loving about acting with violence. No one deserves that, not even on public television.

@@mela3052 I agree, violence shouldn't be looked past. It has no place. I didn't know she has said that. I guess she could change her mind. But that joke wasn't even the most offensive. Of course, we can't speak for how she feels. But her words and her actions that follow don't correlate. Beside hair loss happen to a lot of people, men have been suffering for a long time. But it's been normalised for men to be bald. So she could make a statement about how toxic is it to have hair be tied so tightly to an identity of a woman. No idea what they're thinking since that family and most hollyweird is so out of touch; but no matter how they justify Will's action, it's an assult and it's not adding anything to the discussion about alopecia. It's just embarrassing. And Will is not a victim in this situation with Chris. Yes he is a victim with his wife but not at the event occurred at Oscar.

@@mahogara She has the video up on her own tiktok. Which is why, I’m taken a little a back on her reaction. 🤔 It’s unfortunate, Will is a respected actor, and Chris a great actor too. Not to diminish alopecia, but if they make this a big issue, like I mentioned.. they should make a issue on Chris disorder too then.

I can answer the "how did he get on stage" question. He's Will Smith. 1. One of the biggest names in Hollywood right now, there's power that comes with that 2. He didn't have a violent reputation, no one expected it to the point they all thought it was staged at first. 3. The Oscar's coordinators probably didnt expect their crowd of rich people to get violent, thus less security in this area

@💚 سوريانا 💚 I don't think it's 'rich privilege' Think it's just that it's will smith, he doesn't particularly have a violent reputation, as the person above said.

Because it was just more fakery from hollyweird. All about rating and perhaps a humiliation ritual.

The slap was STAGED thats why

Rebel Wilson just said what everyone is seeing and commenting. He said a bunch of unrelated things to "defend himself or clap back," but he just salty.

Eh to be fair, the Brits can make and take a joke better than Americans.

@@DantesInferno96 Isn't she Australian?

@@shyviolets yeah, she is

@@DantesInferno96 she’s Australian, but yes, originates from convict land the UK.

Girl what?? They asked him to leave, he said no, and they just gave up 😭 they really wanted him to give them publicity on social media by leaving "on his own accord" huh

chris rock also said not to kick him out

I would take his award and escort him out with police then.

In the 70’s John Wayne literally had to be held back from going up on stage at the same OSCARS and assaulting a indigenous American woman who said they should be treated equally, and the Oscars never asked him to give back his awards, Jim carrey forced a 19 year old actress to kiss him on stage when he won a Oscar and she was disgusted and the Oscars never asked him to give back his Oscars, countless white men in the industry have sexual assault convictions, allegations and are in jail for sexual and have Oscars and were never told to give back the Oscars, but boo hoo, a man slapped another man who talk about his wife

@@lenalouwho4100 THISSSSSS EXACTLY THIS!!!! People are acting like this is the worst thing that happened in American history. Many actors that were present at the Oscars did way worse atrocities than a slap.

I agree, I don't think it's possible to have perpetrated a more public act of violence. In short WILL SMITHS BEHAVIOUR WAS DISGRACEFUL HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN REMOVED BODILY.

Ikr. I cant imagine how it feels to see people say that he deserved it

Exactly. He did not deserve that in any way.

But he's a bully himself

@@suscerealbox7772 How so? He’s a comedian. Comedians jobs are to poke fun and make people laugh. Just because you don’t find some jokes funny doesn’t mean they’re offensive. That GI Jane joke was harmless and held no I’ll intent behind it.

Same.

@gareng👇💯 STOP. SPAMMING. THE. COMMENTS.

He handled things very well. Even though I don’t think the joke should’ve been made in the first place, his reaction and professionalism afterwards certainly speaks to his character.

You can tell the producers were in his earpiece at that moment trying to get him not to instigate further. That’s why he looks off to the side of the stage before composing himself.

@@ComPTonRiLLO Yea but knowing Chris Rock, who's known for making many black jokes throughout his career without holding back, this is really him going by in continuing his hosting duties as he should. Big up for Chris.

Same. I REALLY want to know what he was going to say.

So trueee

YESSSSSS !!! I wanted to hear it all. But I respect his class and composure.

I am pretty sure that they would prefer if you would celebrate their actual accomplishments instead of celebrating them for their disabilities, their identities or sexual preferences.🤦‍♂️

@@ramigilneas9274 ^

@@ramigilneas9274 I wasn't celebrating their disabilities or sexualities what are you talking about?

@@Rainia29 Always seeing the glass half empty.

In that case that was not the way to do it and not a wise decision for his reputation and career. At this point noone cares anymore if this was a set up or not. This was nasty. Will was one of my idols until now

agreed!

That makes no sense.their being awarded for what they do in the movies not the Oscar’s

🤣😂

Wait didn’t Will start the whole cheating stuff. People just hate Jada and that’s fine but please don’t cherry pick things 😂

I agree; it wasn’t a great joke, and it was in bad taste. But nobody laughed, it fell pretty flat and everyone would have forgotten about it in 15 minutes. Will Smith made himself look like an unhinged 15 year old defending his first girlfriend by having a tantrum. Sad.

Not to mention all the talk about being the god's chosen one, seemed like Scientology is messing with his brain :/

It'd probably make more sense if it was a hilarious joke 🤣

I just feel like both were in the wrong. On one hand, Will should've had handled that differently but it's understandable of why he did what he did. You DO NOT mess with a man's wife or girlfriend (although Will should've split from Jada a loooong time ago). On the other hand, you should'nt joke about people that have a disease, whether serious or not. With certain jokes (and especially with dark comedy), there has to be a limit and Chris may have taken that too far by going past that limit Though I'm still surprised that Chris didn't press charges

@@CharlieApples I thought the joke was decent and the people there did laugh. Will laughed.

I hope social media cancels him. Lord knows he won’t face any consequences any other way. Sad when a bunch of teens on Twitter have to do something when no one else will because the person is rich and famous.

@@febefox5930 Cancel culture isn't really a thing that works. The most is people get dragged on social media then they come back after some time. The only time it has really worked and is useful is when they're putting predators behind bars. There are people that have been "cancelled" so many times but still have their career.

@@Vincisomething Yeah. I’m sure even if they did “cancel” him he’d be back in like a month. Look at Shane Dawson. But it’d still be gratifying to watch people drag him into oblivion lmao

The fact that Roman Polanski still won an Oscar after fleeing the United States to avoid child SA charges and he even got a standing ovation is mind boggling

The fact that Harvey Weinstein still has his 81 Oscars and the Academy has not made him give them back even after being convicted and jailed for many r@pe charges is mind boggling

How is someone supposed to know that? People can’t read minds? How are they supposed to know that you feel bad about your hair loss? Some people with the same conditions say they love these kinds of jokes? I’m tired of these double standards, when it comes to men and women. For years men have been made fun of for hair loss and have been told by all of society to suck it up. Either we can tell jokes or no one can tells jokes because someone will always be offended.

Heya! Fellow Trichotillomania person here! I see you and you’re not alone!! ♥️

@@shayla106 This

​@@shayla106 why should it be all or nothing? Imo people shouldn't be joking about something that can felt as sensitive for some people such as disabilities or things they can't control unless you know they're cool with it bc well everyone is different, no need to read minds. Personally, I know I'm quite self-conscious about my conditions and when it becomes a butt of a joke, I've learnt to keep it quiet due to the amount of time I've been told to just take a joke. Not everyone wants conditions they have to deal with everyday being made fun of like that. Yes men and women alike get made fun of for hair loss, and no not all of society tell them to suck it up. I don't know why there always has to be this gender double standard comment? Men are made fun of for hair loss, therefore women should just suck it up? Like there aren't any women who have to deal with this, such as in OP's case? No both men and women shouldn't have to suck it up but there will always be judgemental people.

Yeah and he was really flustered too, if you see him reading the teleprompter for the award category he’s tripping over the words

PERIODT!

Whoa what the hell? that's the wierdest way to solve something

That's true based on what I saw on TV. That Leah Rehmni show was insane. Insults = violence to them

Do you know any sources for this? All I’ve seen is that the Smiths donated to a Scientology run homeschooling program, but Will himself practiced some subsect of Christianity and partook in some Hindu rituals.

That explains the "god called on me part" Scientologist is creepy. That's probably why everyone in Hollywood is pretty much okay with it. There are a lot of Scientologist in Hollywood

Will Smith is a Scientologist?? How did I not know this?

He didn't even try to be offensive if you ask me. By now, after what happened, I've seen people mercilessly roast Jada and Will.

@@sylverscale exactly lol they basically asked for the brutal roasting he might as well have gone for it in the moment lol

@@xxDeeMmmVeexx It's ironic because it completely is self-intlicted. A joke everyone would have immediately forgot/never heard made global news because of Will's actions

@@ananousous yeah… like it wasn’t even that good to be honest. When I first heard I was like huh? Then I had to look up GI Jane and see how Demi Moore looked. Like, it was a lame joke lol

That joke was weaker than 2% milk.

We were saying the EXACT thing. Like he just beat someone up in Ali or something.

yeah but only the clean versions tho lmao

He looked like a girl slapping a guy getting too *Fresh* at a bar. It was the least gangsta thing ever. I can't believe no one did ANYTHING. It's flabbergasting.

Its probably because Jada was laughing like a deranged horror clown...

"She has to let me watch after this!"

@@mainkilla its not an insult its a light hearted joke which he prefaced with "i love you jada".

🤣🤣 I didn't even get past the word knit before I hit reply.... Same, my crafty fellow YT long form watcher! 😂 I upcycle thrift store "junk" though, not a knitter.... But totally relate to this comment and say it all the time! I've just never seen anyone else type it out though, lol! Glad I'm not alone & for basically the same reason 😁

I mean I'm pretty sure I saw Mel Gibson in the audience and he's done a lot worse than a slap. Also, Ezra Miller's doing a lot worse than a slap and I've heard crickets. Although I mentioned it before, the Academy and standards... may I tell you about Sacheen Littlefeather?

I think I agree with you!

I think Chris had an anger issue in the past so he was afraid to even open that door in himself because he could have beaten the living ish out of him.

@@9teen9t4 Maybe but Chris would have had to lose it completely to beat Will.

@GhostMcFright If that doesn't scream "insecurity" I don't know what does...

exactly lol. ot wasn't even that offensive of a joke either. I would have roasted her way harder

I read that as well, I'm still confused as to what consequences he can further face

They will open a formal investigation April 18th. Resigning doesn't mean much it's more a show. He just can't vote at the Oscars anymore but he can still be invited back or nominated himself.

It only sound serious but what it means is that his still allowed to attend future ceremonies, keep his award and be nominated the only thing is his not allowed to vote. That’s it.

Chris rock ever said racist jokes towards Asian kids on 2016, never apologized & Oscar still using him as MC till now??I guess racist in America just between black & white, not another POC

@@tkarina829 i guess they give chris a free pass since he’s a comedian. Most comedians in the US have made racist jokes at some point in there career and gotten away with it. While i think chris and other comedians should be held accountable for racist remarks, Will Smith literally slapping someone on live TV is just a whole other level. Just cuz chris has made racist jokes in the past it shouldnt distract us from what Will smith did and it doesnt mean he should get away with assaulting chris. Slapping someone is literally a crime whereas words are not

he didn't make a bad joke. that was a really mild, pretty funny joke lol. I would have said a wayyy worse joke

Scientologists are not supposed to drink Alcohol and Will definitely does so... It was fake for ratings people. Jeez. There's more important things to spend your brain cells on... smh

Thats interesting! I was wondering about why Will’s slap was so “professional” looking and how Chris stayed standing. I don’t know too much about his acting career but maybe he learned it for a role??? (Unlikely but still)

What does scientology have to do with it?

@@KD-bf9og as far as I am to believe, the family has ties to Scientology. I’m stopping myself now. Just dug a little deeper and saw this theory actually commonly googled. Will and Jada are former-Scientologists and the practice was connected to that fact. BUT it has been 7 years since they said they left the faith and there has been no evidence of anything otherwise. So. Just a theory. But it’s more likely than some others that were mentioned lol.

@@KD-bf9og from what I’ve read from other replies, apparently it’s some sort of practice within the religion they do where if someone insults you or your family you have to slap them? And if you don’t then someone who is a rank (or whatever they call it) above the person who was insulted gets to slap them? Idk tho I’m just relaying info I saw a couple people saying so I could be wrong.

@@quanzoboi420 interesting. I feel like that type of thinking applies to many other religions and cultures though lol. I don’t really see this as being anything unique to scientology.

Don't act like it was "just the internet making shit up" when it was Jared and the cast members first hand saying it happened. The rat may have been misreported as dead but it doesn't change the fact he also sent dead pigs, nudie mags, a dildo, a switchblade, bullets, used condoms, and anal beads to his coworkers. It hurt Leto's public reputation so much he's trying to gaslight everyone and is openly contradicting himself and everyone who he worked with. "At first I thought this was disgusting. But then after that... I was like, I'm not going to kill him," - Robbie in regards to Rat "I did a lot of things to create a dynamic, to create an element of surprise, of spontaneity, and to really break down any kind of walls that may be there," Leto said. "The Joker is somebody who doesn’t really respect things like personal space or boundaries."
