we saw on TV’s news just the opposite. One never knows these days

I think the most famous slap at an Oscar's still came from the midriff of male streaker who interrupted David Niven in 1974. Followed by a withering joke.

Link to avoid being banned for less sexualized content than a tame costume on the red carpet reveals these days.

Can you imagine Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra reacting the way Will Smith did? They would have laughed in his face and told him to grow up.

Hanz Zimmer is hilarious talking about the "really fxxking shitty show" after he won best music for Dune.

How can they really discipline him? Sit in time-out?

 

[Steve Williams]

They could revoke his Oscar although they don’t have the cajones to do that

He should have been removed soon as he sat down. The man is nuts no doubt and what he did is a massive issue for all performers not just comedians. i can’t imagine what’s next
on my cruise there were live comedy acts
known comics
very funny
the last act was a gay man. i know him very funny been around a
long time just controls the room.
At his start he quickly made some jokes to let us know he is gay. I laughed as most lost his meaning
I was front row a bad place for comics
when he seen l quickly laughed he looked at me
then he got dark
he went into a tare in non vaxed people
wishing them all dead not kidding said it a few times
why
non vaxed are the issue if there all dead just like Howard stern we are all safe. Dumb jerk
I looked at him at first it was a joke
then as he looked mad and said two more times
the room got silent a few left the room. Then he got really funny and said I’m glad they left we are all safer.
he then got really funny until he asked someone next to me where they were from
they said Missouri
he then said wow they like wife beaters there of course it was a rep who was accused
he sneared
I yelled its ok he was a republican knowing this would make him explode
it worked lol. I laughed at him and said so you can wish all non vaxed to die it’s funny but one wife beater is bad. Maybe she needed it.
the room erupted in laughing at him as he was mad.
then I put up my hand I’m sorry let it be.
he did but never looked at me again. im vaxed but know enough it’s a choice and smart enough to know there at risk
maybe I should have smacked him lol.
no matter what he said I would not ever touch or threaten anyone
And please no vax comments it’s about will smith only.

ps I never interupt acts ever unless they ask me and I run from this

It's interesting how Hollywood is beginning to open their mouths and speaking up against Will Smith. I cannot really remember any Academy member ever being sanctioned but it seems sides are being taken depending on how woke they are


Here is a perfect example......but I wouldn't expect otherwise from Whooopi

Whoopi Goldberg goes off on 'View' co-host for slight against 'Hollywood elite': 'It really pisses me off'

"The View's" Whoopi Goldberg went off on guest co-host Tara Setmayer over a slight against "Hollywood elites."

Lets see honestly things are at a tipping I hope.
i mean the ideals being used help almost no one
I get his anger in defense of his wife. I really do but not the place for what he did. Much less they have an open marriage and who were they with there.
i read today c rock possible had an affair with her so if true
I’m sure he felt it was a disrespect for her.

The internet may never forget but there is a lot of BS on the internet. Note, I am not referring to the content of your post.

Well here is the latest flash. My guess is he resigned from the Academy because they were going to give him the boot . No more Oscars for you Will

Will Smith Resigns From Academy Over Chris Rock Oscars Slap Backlash

Will Smith has resigned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences in the wake of the Chris Rock Oscars slap.

variety.com

Will woke up.....

“The list of those I have hurt is long and includes Chris, his family, many of my dear friends and loved ones, all those in attendance, and global audiences at home,” Smith said. “I betrayed the trust of the Academy. I deprived other nominees and winners of their opportunity to celebrate and be celebrated for their extraordinary work. I am heartbroken.”

 

[spiritofmusic]

Why do these "confessions" sound so fake? Is it because these people are always acting, never not acting?
They're just empty hollow cyphers.
This apology sounds as concocted as his mock outrage at Rock's jibe.
As a British thespian said, back in the day, "why don't you just try acting, dear boy"
Will obviously believes in this ethos.

As a British thespian said, back in the day, "why don't you just try acting, dear boy”.

Olivier to Hoffman during filming of “Marathon Man”, recounted by screenwriter William Goldman in Adventures in the Screen Trade, one of the classic books of Hollywood lore.

While Smith has resigned from the film academy, he apparently is keeping his Oscar. No reporting of him returning it.

Why are you guys so obsessed with Smith? He is just a friggin’ actor who has no effect on anything. He doesn’t run a country or state.

I have no idea if his statement is heartfelt but he did issue it and he did resign. Not much else he can do other than behave well going forward.

What he did was 100% wrong but the guy is tortured and emasculated by his wife who wants an open relationship and has slept with others including their son’s friend. That would drive 99% of the men out there crazy. Maybe he should just leave her but even that has its implications.

Gee your so heart felt for will still. I don’t feel sorry for him or any elites life can suck grow up. he loves her no matter what he is soo screwed. She needs to be left on a mountain top to find her way down.
