Holy cow. Will Smith just legitimately punched Chris Rock. Wow.

That was crazy! I feel like it was real, but then Will and Jada were laughing and all relaxed a few minutes later.

I guess I missed that part! My tv went silent and seemed to nearly go out right when the 2 of them were speaking back and forth. Darn!
Other than that, it's been such a boring show. Not sure why I tuned in since I haven't seen ONE of the movies nominated.......

The only interesting thing that has happened at that ceremony for years 🤣🤣
Chris Rock was for sure the best host they ever had…been boring AF since then. Jon Stewart was good, too.
I’m not usually a Jada fan, but her green dress was amazing.

I totally thought it was all fake, but apparently it wasn’t.

Pretty sure it was real. Will yelled You keep my wife’s name out of your fucking mouth. I thought it was a skit but Chris was definitely thrown by it.

We are watching and totally not sure if it were real or not.
Will was laughing at the comment about GI Jane but Jada was not (I believe she has alopecia) and then the punch happened. She genuinely looked pissed.

I feel like it was unscripted because of the cussing
You know American tv gets all kind of Puritan about that

I’m sure jada and will decided just to dial it back and pretend nothing happened as Will is expected to win. It’s really too bad if this is his night. Yikes

I wasn't sure if it was real or not. Had to rewind because our tv froze too during and went silent. The faces on the other stars was like shock.

Watching the clip Cindy linked it was definitely real.

American TVs paused and went silent because of the cussing
The network gets fined if that gets through on the broadcast

After watching the feed with audio, I can't believe that was planned in any way. Wow. So the question now is, if Will wins the award tonight... will they give him the mic? You'd think behaviour like that should have him thrown out.

Watching the clip Cindy linked it was definitely real. Yeah, I totally agree. It was all glitchy here. Will be interesting to see what happens if he wins. It was just odd that Will laughed at the joke then got pissed. That is why we were confused on if it were scripted or not. |

I don’t think it was scripted simply because of Chris Rock’s reaction. Smith should be thrown out for assaulting him.

I thought it was a joke and then it was all bleeped out and I wasn’t sure. Crazy.

It wasn’t beeped out in Australia and there’s a video going around showing it clearly wasn’t staged-we missed a lot of cursing from Will and an apology (of sorts) from Chris.

We were watching and just couldn't believe it. I sent a text to DD to see if she saw it and what she thought. In my immediate Google search, there seemed to be an issue back to 2016 with the trio. Twitter was crazy!

That was so shocking and upsetting. WTF Will behave in public. Beef with the guy after. Shameful and embarrassing in front of the world.

My husband read to me a report that there is bad blood from 2016 when Chris Rock made remarks about Jada boycotting The Oscars.
Denzel and Tyler Perry were consoling Will and Jada during commercial break and the other winners and guests have been told not to respond to questions about the incident.

So it sounds like they (Jada and Will) were already on edge because earlier in the evening a joke was made about their marriage?

And because he acted like a jackass he got double the airtime to make that mess of a speech than all the other talented people who won as well.
