I dont believe it was meant to be mean in any way .

Are the whole world supposed to know she suffers from non life threatening alopecia ?

I didn't ..and frankly don't care .

Comedian ....Oscars ...movies ...short hair ..GI Jane came up .Simple.

No excuse for open marriage Willy swearing like a gutter snipe at an occasion with a very long history.That was worse than the slap!

If The Academy is worth anything,they will take the little statue back .

Don't watch the Oscars and typically don't care but someone said, Smith had to protect the honor of his wife... Really? Honor? When his wife is allowed to sleep with other men/women? Typical self absorbed Hollywood BS.

But director Judd Apatow called the incident “pure out of control rage and violence” on Twitter.

“He could have killed him. That’s pure out of control rage and violence. They’ve heard a million jokes about them in the last three decades. They are not freshman in the world of Hollywood and comedy. He lost his mind,” he wrote on Twitter.

“Seems like Will Smith’s plan to get comedian and the world to not make jokes about him is not going to pan out. The Williams family must be furious. Pure narcissism,” he added.

“Also — GI Jane was gorgeous. What exactly is insulting about being compared to a ripped, stunning Demi?’ he wrote, referencing the Ridley Scott–directed Demi Moore–starring film.

Most don't, viewer ratings have been dropping.

And the Grammys, don't believe the hype.

Because the victim doesn't want to press charges.

I was unaware my veteran status permitted me to commit crime carte blanche, definitely good to know.

Fake and staged. Talk about this please and not the dumpster fire that is the Oscar ratings (or current US politics!)

I am just wondering what would have happened if the Rock or Jason Mamoa had made a similar joke? Will Smith would have walked up casually and done the same bitch slap to the speaker?

“The academy condemns the actions of Mr. Smith at last night’s show,” the organization said in a statement. “We have officially started a formal review around the incident and will explore further action and consequences in accordance with our bylaws, standards of conduct and California law.”

IF this were anyone other than a celebrity he/she would’ve been arrested on the spot. oops, my bad. This behavior is encouraged by certain DA’s across this country.

Wasn't there some other staged event in Chicago or ???? by an actor? He obviously broke the law, but he got a pass... at first.
