Actor Jim Carrey on Monday criticized Oscar viewers for cheering on Will Smith after slapping Chris Rock for his joke that Jada Pinkett Smith shaved his head.
“I was shocked by the applause,” Sonic the Hedgehog 2 actor Gail King told CBS. “I felt that Hollywood was very backward.”
Minutes after the incident at Sunday night’s ceremony, guests of the ceremony stood up when Will Smith won the Best Actor award for his role in “King Richard.” ᲛKanya Receiving a speechHe apologized to the academy and his colleagues for his behavior and reasonably explained that “it’s crazy what love does to you.” He joked that he must have been like a mad father, as they said about Richard Williams, whom he played as “King Richard”. (Smith apologized to Rock on Monday.)
King said Monday that anyone other than Smith is likely to be removed after the attack or even arrested. Kerry said Smith “should have been,” but Rock – who has denied the allegations – just doesn’t want the mess.
“I will announce this morning that I will sue Will for $ 200 million,” Kerry said. “This video will last forever. It’s everywhere. You know, this abuse will last. “
“You have no right … to hit someone in the face because they said the words,” Kerry continued, adding that it was “a selfish moment that holds everyone back.”
At a Sunday ceremony, Will Smith took to the stage and punched Rock in the face after a comedian joked about his wife, who had heard about him battling alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss. Smith shouted at Rock, “Don’t take my husband’s name away from you.”
Kerry wasn’t the only comedian who spoke out about the incident. Katie Griffin and Patton Oswalt suggested that Smith’s actions could create an open season for comics just to tell jokes that viewers don’t like.
