Will Smith Barred From Attending Any Academy Events for 10 Years
Welp, so much for the prediction that he and Chris could host within a few years as the ultimate Oscars gimmick.
Two genuine apologies and he resigned from the academy. But it’s just not enough for these people.
All his projects are on hold. Deals are on hold. Now he can’t attend the Oscars for ten years.
I’ve never witnessed anyone in Hollywood actually be punished by Hollywood until now.
Just so we’re clear: Jim Carey forcibly kissed a teenage Alicia Silverstone without her consent at an awards show. Was not punished. Adrien Brody forcibly kissed Halle Berry at an award show without her consent. Also was not punished. John Wayne had to be physically held back from attacking Sacheen Littlefeather at the Oscars. Was not punished. Roman Polanski was given an Oscar in abstention because if he came to collect the award in person, he would have been arrested due to his conviction for statutory rape. Was not removed from the academy until 2018. Casey Affleck was given an Oscar shortly after he was accused to sexual harassment. Woody Allen has been nominated and awarded several times by the academy despite allegations of molestation being public since the 1990s.
This business with Smith being banned from the Oscars for 10 years is phenomenally stupid.
Like, I can name a million things worse that have happened at the Academy Awards, astonishing and horrifying displays of sexual harassment and even assault, even attempted physical assault in John Wayne’s case, those these were all perpetrated by white men funny enough. All have gone by without the Academy even blinking in their direction. But Will Smith slaps an annoying comedian, and it’s curtains.
It is very, very stupid. But somehow, someway, I think Will Smith is going to be just fine.
The Will Smith slapping Rock whatever is probably staged. I mean this is Hollywood, these are actors. People started losing interest in the Oscars so whoever behind it pulled this stunt for the drama and attention. The body language and everything between Will Smith and Rock looks very exaggerated.
What even happened
Biden did that!
so the academy is reviewing whether or not to remove Will Smith’s award and here are some interesting tweets about that :)
Okay, who did this?
“keep my wife’s name out of your mouth” is such a powerful and beautiful statement, you’d think it came from like The Iliad, but no it’s from that time will smith slapped the everloving shit out of Chris Rock at the oscars
People share the videos of Black people being murdered by police like there candy but yes THIS normalized violence
and so the memes have started
