The Oscars 2022 winners will have been somewhat overshadowed by this absolutely memorable scene, the one where Will Smith slapped comedian and humorist Chris Rock, when he had made a joke about his wife’s alopecia. Since then, the video has toured the planet and many have come to the defense of one or the other.
On CBS, it was Jim Carrey who gave his opinion at the start of the week. And the least we can say is that he is angry with the actor ofAli. “I was disgusted. Disgusted by the standing ovation. I felt like Hollywood was just inert. It was really like, ‘Oh, that’s a very clear indication that we’re not the cool club anymore’.“, said the actor castigating the behavior of his colleagues during the ceremony which saw Will Smith win the Oscar for best actor a few minutes later.[À la place de Chris Rock], I would have announced that I was suing Will for 200 million dollars, because this video will be there forever. It will be ubiquitous. This insult will last a very long time. If you want to show your disapproval you can say something on Twitter or whatever, but you have no right to go on stage and punch someone in the face for saying words“, concluded the star of The Mask.
