Will Smith, who won the best actor award at Oscars 2022, has been grabbing headlines for his slap gate incident with Chris Rock. The actor was highly irked with Chris for making fun of his wife Jada's hairdo who is suffering from a medical condition. However, he later apologised for getting violent with Chris. He took to Instagram and wrote a long apology to Chris and The Academy Awards 2022. He wrote, "Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behaviour at last night’s Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable. Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada’s medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally. I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness. I would also like to apologize to the Academy, the producers of the show, all the attendees and everyone watching around the world. I would like to apologize to the Williams Family and my King Richard Family. I deeply regret that my behaviour has stained what has been an otherwise gorgeous journey for all of us. I am a work in progress." Also Read - Samrat Prithviraj actor Sonu Sood OPENS Up about doing back-to-back South films; ‘It saves me from doing bad Hindi films'
Netizens were having a field day on the internet after the slap gate incident. Karan Johar is being dragged amid the controversy. A lot of people are blaming KJo's production venture Student Of The Year 2 for Will Smith's behaviour. But Why? On Twitter one user mentioned, "Will Smith did a cameo in the movie Student of the Year 2, if his temper for cheapness is that high, there would have been a bloody brawl for even offering him the cameo. This Oscar thing was scripted." Another user wrote, “I feel Will Smith has become overdramatic after working in 'Student Of The Year 2'. #WillAndChris #WillSmith." "Will Smith hasn't been himself since the Student of the Year cameo," wrote a netizen on Twitter. Take a look at the memes right here.
