Will Smith, the once unflappable movie star, spent the last decade being drastically honest with the public. That may have ended with a slap.

It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly when the shift began, but there’s no question it’s been a conscious decision.As Smith tells it, he hit a “midlife crisis point” in 2012, a year he refers to as “the year of the mutiny.”Haute Living, explaining that while his family was successful, it wasn’t happy. He wanted to change and grow as a person, a husband and a father — not merely as an entertainer.So he made it his mission to enrich himself emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

This unabashed earnestness found its way into his projects. While he still tackles blockbuster fare, they now fail more often than they succeed, critically and commercially. Perhaps as a result, he’s begun investing more time in his passion projects.In the wake of George Floyd’s murder, he got “Emancipation,” his first movie about slavery, greenlit. And in 2019, a

I wonder why they still have not taken the award back from him. I guess this is why black people have been mostly kept away from things like the Oscars. Next time, don’t be surprised to see a shoot out on stage.

Worried about his wife but let’s her sleep with Tom, Dick and Harry..

Have they revived his agent yet?

Wonder what the reaction would’ve been if Sarah Sanders’ husband slapped comedian Michelle Wolf for jokes about Sarah’s appearance at the 2018 WH Correspondents Dinner?

Will Smith treats the world as his therapist’s couch and it’s getting pretty tiring

Effeminate cuck

No excuses, Smith was wrong, violence is never the answer. Rocks quip was also wrong, if he knew of JPSs health issue and impolite if he didn’t. If the Academy want someone edgy to host their awards, Ricky Gervais should be considered.

Fucking will Smith. WW3 coming wake up

His reaction has Kavanaugh vibes. From the fake anger, to the fake tears, to the fake apology.

Travis Andrew’s article totally missed the seriousness of felony assault and raging on the global stage by a narcissist believing he can act out violently with no consequences. Like any other citizen, he should have been arrested, not applauded

if it was the rock johnson or mike tyson up there saying it, would will smith think about slapping him? i don't think so! he should've slapped august.

EGO has to be the worst enemy of success

Completely unfortunate behavior

I still think it was set up to resurrect the Oscars relevance. This 7-day article pretty much predicted this type of thing.

You could see what Chris Rock said went deep into Jada. I mean real deep. And Will is not the kind of man to let that slide.

I think we had an honest look at Smith, cursing and physically assaulting Rock. Then a cowardly apology via Instagram Disgusting.

It was obviously staged lol

Nervous breakdown on live TV over hair loss rich people problems.

His wife was disrespected

I think he could have allowed Chris to say whatever and then confronted him later and straighten things out,.. It's called discretion and emotional intelligence,... Nigga moment.

Not certain Will defending his wife or his own discomfort but do believe that he should have taken the matter up w Rock privately & not spoil the event for everyone else involved. His actions were extremely inconsiderate & rash, not best example for his kids.
