Currently, many viewers of Oscar 2022 are still not surprised by the live fight between actor Will Smith and MC Chris Rock. Social networks quickly exploded because of the unprecedented moment in the history of the most prestigious film awards ceremony on the planet.
Specifically, while awarding the Best Documentary category, Rock suddenly mentioned Will Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith: "Jada, I love you. I am eager to watch GI Jane 2. This is considered an Appearance joke because GI Jane's main character has a straight-headed appearance, and Jada Pinkett-Smith is also famous for his straight hair.
In response to the unlucky joke, Will Smith's wife appeared quite confused, while the 53-year-old actor burst out laughing, then suddenly stood up and went on stage to slapping Chris Rock. The organizers turned off the sound, but the audience could still see Smith warning the MC after a sensitive joke. Shortly after, the sound was re-aired and Rock continued his duties as host.
Just a few months ago, Jada Pinkett Smith shared that she was struggling with autoimmune disorders. This disease causes the body to attack the hair follicles, preventing the growth of the hair and causing the actress's hair to fall off in patches. Therefore, she decided to shave her head while fighting the disease.
This incident not only shocked the audience, but also the artists attending the Oscar.
Actress Sophia Bush was unhappy with the MC's joke:
"It was the second time Chris mocked Jada on the Oscar stage, and he talked about her hair loss. attacking other people's illnesses is a mistake. Doing so intentionally is very cruel. Both of them need to be calmer.
At the 94th Oscars, Will Smith won a gold medal in the Best Actor category for his role as Richard Williams in the biographical film King Richards. This is one of Oscar's most prestigious awards.
On the podium to receive the award, the American actor could not hold back his tears. After thanking the characters and the film crew, he also apologized for the recent incident.
