Here’s How People Reacted To Will Smith Slapping Chris Rock During The Live Oscars Broadcast (40 Posts)

Yes! Respect to this husband! The world is cruel, but we can't go smacking anyone who offends us

Takei is amazing...

Or, that's how you've been conditioned to react when someone is making fun of you in a public setting, no matter if you agree with it or not... but when he saw his wife, his actual feeling came out

If you watch the start of the video, initial reaction of Smith was laughing, while his wife was clearly not. Ressorting to violence just after laughing, worse walking quietly to your target and then out of nowhere punching him, is not "the heat of the moment"

If anyone did that in any decent theatre they would be forcefully ejected on to the street. Unless it was staged. The audience numbers have been falling for some time. Surely, Hollywood would not be so cynical. Or would they?

Security should have been called to escort him out. They would have in a less privileged environment.

Boom.

The guy who makes a joke on somebody's illness is not a comedian but an insensitive jerk.

I think the whole culture of award show hosts is vile and toxic. They are paid to stand up there and roast unsuspecting celebrities…

"Tasteless joke" You can condemn Will Smith's actions without downplaying how inappropriate and cruel the joke was.

I mean, Harvey Weinstien (i honestly don't care how his name is spelt) used to sit and get thanked constantly while being an absolute scum of a human....so not so strange from Hollywood's elitist.

So true and so sad

This meme applies to much of Christian history tho

Don't make jokes about it or Will Smith might take offense and hit you

And Chris rock owes Jada an apology for making fun of her sickness. That's why Chris isn't filling any charges, he knows he f****d up

We shouldn't be with Rock either though

We need a discourse on what is appropriate in comedy jokes. Rock has been going after her and all the Smiths incessantly. Making fun of Shumer for stealing jokes is edgy comedy. Making fun of an auto-immune disease or any body/health issue may eventually require a slap upside the head. Especially when more appropriate requests to stop have fallen on deaf ears. Will shouldn’t have done it to us viewers and the Oscars, but probably should have given the weasel a wake up call earlier on his harassment campaign. And what happened to CR? He used to be funny on his early stand up days. Now he’s a commercial actor or product shucker & tells weak sauce jokes. He’s worse than the comedians booked to perform on Disney cruises.

I mean, this horrible event did show the world that Nicole Kidman’s face can move.

Lupita Nyong'o's reaction be like that.

🤣 yup, that's all I've seen this morning. These exact 2 pictures.

All I'm thinking is Jada that was double embarrassed that night

Loves Rock's reaction and still doing WWE's face!

I can see his entire life, career flashing before his eyes in this meme

I'm thinking nobody wants to be WS right now...

I know that the votes were already there but he shouldn't be awarded yesterday! They should give it to the second runner up! We shouldn't approve those behaviours and the production of the awards should have better reflexes in these situations

This should be at the top

This- nobody cares anymore. Rich actors congratulating other rich actors for being rich actors is not something a lot of people enjoy anymore.

You mean there were people standing???

Then make him move to bel Air

I think he handled it pretty freaking well. Besides not apologizing to Jada for being out of line...

You missed the part where he is laughing

JayZ be like...I got 99 problems but a slap from Will Smith aint one of them...

Celebrity drama. Yawn.

Lol

Batman would never do that to Robin.

In Hollywood.

No he wasn't so cute

aw yikes

Fruit Ninja, my favourite!!!

After seeing that slap I can't help but keep replaying that Dave Chappelle skit with Charlie Murphy and Rick James in my head.

He is all of us.

I don't support him but this was no joke

🤣🤣🤣🤣

That tattoo though 😶☠️

Lol!!!

Gettin' jiggy with it!

Ran on stage when he had finished laughing at the joke, that is. He's gone down in my estimations for what that's worth. He was one of my fave actors too. Shame.

Hmmm...how can we get viewership up...

This and the spongebob meme should be next to each other lol

If only we could get more people to tune into the oscars...but how? SCRIPTED. WAKE UP PEOPLE. HES AN ACTOR

He should have apologized to Chris as well. What he did was uncalled for and unprofessional. I lost a lot of respect for Will tonight
