WILL SMITH SLAPS CHRIS ROCK THEN WINS A OSCAR APOLOGIZED TO THE ACADAMY

Chris Rock picked the wrong night to play with Will Smiths,wife Jada Pickett Smith. Calling her GI Jane and was slapped by will immediately for that comment. Then took his

acceptance speech at the Academy Awards Sunday (March 27) after winning the best actor award for his portray of Venus and Serena Williams’ dad Richard Williams in King Richard. The win came shortly after the actor stormed the stage and appeared to hit presenter Chris Rock in the face after the comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith‘s alopecia, which he seemed to apologize to the academy for in his speech.

“Richard Williams was a fierce defender of his family,” Smith said, seeming to allude to the viral moment, which viewers at home were unsure if it was scripted or an authentic reaction. He then mentioned some of his King Richard costars. “In this time in my life, in this moment, I am overwhelmed by what God is calling on me to do and be in this world. Making this film, I got to protect Aunganue Ellis, who is one of the most strongest, most delicate people I’ve ever met. I got to protect Saniyya [Sidney] and Demi [Singleton], the two actresses who play Venus and Serena. I’m being called on in my life to love people and to protect people and to be a river to my people.”

Will said the devil comes when you at your highest point. The gentleman also hopes the academy invites him back. Stay tuned for more from IMU
