Amy Schumer’s Joke About Kirsten Dunst Being An Oscars Seat Filler Made People Cringe | HuffPost Entertainment
Chris Rock wasn’t the only comedian at the Academy Awards who made a joke that led to a truly awkward moment.
Will Smith Slaps Chris Rock at 2022 Oscars Over Jada Pinkett Joke | Complex
Will Smith walked on stage and slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars before returning to his seat and telling the comedian to keep his “wife’s name out” his “fucking mouth.”
“Wow, Will Smith just smacked the shit out of me,” Rock said, to which Smith responded, “Keep my wife’s name out your fucking mouth.” After taking a moment to collect himself in wake of this unprecedented moment, the comedian quipped, “That was the greatest night in the history of television.”
It all happened after Rock joked about Jada’s hair and said she was set to star in a sequel to G.I. Jane.
Jada opened up late last year about the decision to shave her head saying it was because she had been dealing with alopecia. “Now at this point, I can only laugh,” Pinkett Smith said. “Y’all know I’ve been struggling with alopecia and just all of a sudden one day, look at this line right here.”
The Hollywood Reporter columnist Scott Feinberg shared video of Denzel Washington and Tyler Perry speaking with Smith just offstage before a third person tries to comfort the clearly emotional actor.
Sean Combs tried to play peacemaker moments after the incident, declaring “we’re gonna solve that like family at the Gold Party.”
It has since become increasingly clear that all of this took away from what should’ve been Questlove’s moment after winning his first Oscar in the Best Documentary Feature category for Summer of Soul.
Following the shocking incident, Will Smith won the Best Actor award for his performance in King Richard and apologized to the Academy. It’s the first time that Smith has won an Oscar.
“Richard Williams was a fierce defender of his family,” Smith said while accepting the award, as transcribed by IndieWire. “In this time of my life, in this moment, I am overwhelmed by what God is calling on me to do and be in this world. Making this film, I got to protect Aunjanue Ellis, who is one of the most strongest, most delicate people I’ve ever met. I got to protect Saniyya and Demi, the two actresses who played Venus and Serena.”
Smith continued, “I’m being called on in my life to love people, and to protect people, and to be a river to my people. And I know that to do what we do you gotta be able to take abuse and you gotta be able to have people talk crazy about you in this business. You gotta be able to have people disrespecting you and you gotta smile and act like that’s okay. Denzel said to me a few moments ago, ‘That’s your highest moment. Be careful, that’s when the Devil comes for you.’ It’s like, I wanna be a vessel for love. I wanna say thank you to Venus and Serena, for entrusting me with your story.
The actor closed out his speech by saying that he hopes he’ll be invited back to the Oscars in the future.
“Thank you for this honor, thank you for this moment. And I hope the Academy invites me back. Thank you.”
Will and Jada’s son Jaden took to social media after it all went down. “And That’s How We Do It,” he wrote. In another tweet, Jaden commented on his dad’s speech and said that it made him cry.
What’s so funny? Moment Jada Pinkett Smith laughs after Will Smith smacks Chris Rock | Daily Mail Online
New video has emerged of the moments following Will Smith‘s slap of Chris Rock at the Oscars, showing Jada Pinkett Smith’s reaction as she looked on from a table near the stage.
The video posted to TikTok was shot from the floor of the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday, from a vantage point directly behind the table where Smith and Pinkett Smith were seated.
Though her face cannot be seen clearly, Pinkett Smith appears to laugh in the immediate aftermath of the slap, as Rock reacts by saying: ‘Wow, Will Smith just smacked the s**t out of me.’
The actress, 50, glances briefly at her husband as he shouts for the first time: ‘Keep my wife’s name out your f***ing mouth.’
However, she keeps her eyes fixed on Rock as Smith repeats his demand at a louder volume. Pinkett Smith then appears to chuckle again as Rock states: ‘The greatest night in the history of television.’
The new video comes as Rock speaks out for the first time since the infamous incident, briefly addressing the matter in his first stand-up act since the Oscars.

Rock reacts onstage during the Oscars. He said Wednesday: ‘I’m still processing what happened, so at some point I’ll talk about that s***’
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are seen at the Oscars. New video has emerged of the moments following Will Smith ‘s slap of Chris Rock at the Oscars on Sunday
Rock on Wednesday night told an audience at his sold-out comedy show in Boston that he was ‘still processing’ being slapped on stage by Smith at the Oscars, in his first public response to Sunday’s shocking incident.
Dressed all in white, Rock, 57, took to the stage at the Wilbur Theatre and asked the excited crowd: ‘Sooooo, how was your weekend?!’
With the crowd all handing over their cell phones before the show began, the former Saturday Night Live star was greeted with a long standing ovation in the first of two sets he performed Wednesday as part for his Ego Death Tour.
However, the usually-uninhibited funnyman quickly shut down any hopes he would crack jokes about the slap heard round the world to the 3,000 fans in the audience, some of whom reportedly paid nearly $1,000 for a ticket.
‘Let me be all misty and s***,’ he said, with tears in his eyes.
‘I don’t have a bunch of s*** to say about that, so if you came here for that…’ he said, and paused.
‘I had written a whole show before this weekend.
‘I’m still processing what happened, so at some point I’ll talk about that s***. It’ll be serious. It’ll be funny, but right now I’m going to tell some jokes.’
Rock skirted the subject again in his second set but seemingly confirmed that he has not spoken with Smith since being smacked in the jaw on live television.
‘I haven’t talked to anyone, despite what you heard,’ Rock said.

Rock looked downbeat amid the drama, which overshadowed the Oscars and deeply divided Hollywood. Smith apologized to him on Monday night, but Rock is yet to respond
Twice during the first show, a couple of members of the audience shouted: ‘Will Smith,’ drawing a far louder chorus of boos.
Following the heckling, DailyMail.com saw one man being dragged out by security guards.
The Academy’s statement in full
The Board of Governors today initiated disciplinary proceedings against Mr. Smith for violations of the Academy’s Standards of Conduct, including inappropriate physical contact, abusive or threatening behavior, and compromising the integrity of the Academy.
Consistent with the Academy’s Standards of Conduct, as well as California law, Mr. Smith is being provided at least 15 days’ notice of a vote regarding his violations and sanctions and the opportunity to be heard beforehand by means of a written response. At the next board meeting on April 18, the Academy may take any disciplinary action, which may include suspension, expulsion, or other sanctions permitted by the Bylaws and Standards of Conduct.
Mr. Smith’s actions at the 94th Oscars were a deeply shocking, traumatic event to witness in-person and on television. Mr. Rock, we apologize to you for what you experienced on our stage and thank you for your resilience in that moment. We also apologize to our nominees, guests and viewers for what transpired during what should have been a celebratory event.
Things unfolded in a way we could not have anticipated. While we would like to clarify that Mr. Smith was asked to leave the ceremony and refused, we also recognize we could have handled the situation differently.
Police confirmed that the man was maced and kicked out of the theater by multiple security guards.
The kerfuffle disrupted Rock, who responded the second time by saying: ‘Is this how this tour is going to go?’
Later Rock commented on his life in general, saying that ‘except for some weird things, life is pretty good right now.’
The crowd laughed, knowing exactly what the ‘weird things’ referred to.
Rock seemed unfazed as he delivered his typically high-energy routine, keeping the crowd roaring and gasping as he joked about everything from overweight people at Disney parks, to his decision to get a vasectomy after seeing a 78-year-old Robert De Niro walking around with a child.
He joked about how he spends all his money on women, and wryly recommended his ex-wife’s divorce lawyer to the audience, for winning her half his fortune without her ever telling a joke.
Rock took the stage shortly after it emerged that Smith had refused to leave the Oscars after he was approached by the heads of the Academy of Motion Pictures.
The Academy said on Wednesday he ignored the request from the president, David Rubin, and CEO, Dawn Hudson, to leave, and that he had violated their code of conduct.
The 53-year-old actor marched onto the stage on Sunday and hit Rock, after Rock told a joke about Smith’s wife.
Shortly after, Smith was announced as the winner of the best actor award and went up to collect his statuette to a standing ovation from many of his peers.
On Wednesday the Academy said it had launched ‘disciplinary procedures’ against Smith, and confirmed he ignored their request for him to leave his seat. They also apologized to Rock.
Smith was asked to leave by David Rubin, the president of the Academy, and CEO Dawn Hudson, TMZ reported.
Two sources told the site Rubin and Hudson were ‘furious’ at Smith, and there was plenty of ‘yelling’ and ‘heated conversations’ backstage with his reps after the incident.
One source said the Academy officials were ‘apoplectic.’
Dawn Hudson, the CEO of the Academy, asked Smith to leave, along with David Rubin, the president. Smith ignored them
‘The Board of Governors today initiated disciplinary proceedings against Mr. Smith for violations of the Academy’s Standards of Conduct, including inappropriate physical contact, abusive or threatening behavior, and compromising the integrity of the Academy,’ their statement said.
‘Mr. Smith was asked to leave the ceremony and refused, [but] we also recognize we could have handled the situation differently.’
Smith will receive 15 days notice of a vote as well as an opportunity to be heard by written response.
At the next board meeting – scheduled for April 18 – the Academy may take action that could include ‘suspension, expulsion, or other sanctions permitted by the Bylaws and Standards of Conduct.’
In his acceptance speech, Smith apologized to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences – whose members vote for the awards, and who stages the ceremony – but stopped short of apologizing to Rock.
Smith initially laughed off the attack, writing on Instagram on Sunday evening: ‘You can’t invite people from Philly or Baltimore nowhere!!’
Yet as the gravity of the situation became clear, Smith then posted a public apology to Instagram 24 hours after the ceremony, saying he wanted to say sorry formally to Rock.
He said his behavior was ‘unacceptable and inexcusable’ and left him ’embarrassed’.
‘I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris,’ he wrote.
‘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.’

Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith showed a united front after the row with Rock overshadowed his Oscar win
Condemnation of Smith has grown in the intervening days.
Oscars co-host Wanda Sykes slammed the Academy, calling their actions ‘gross’ for allowing Smith to remain in the theater, and said his behavior made her feel ‘physically ill.’
‘It was sickening,’ Sykes said in a televised interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
‘I felt physically ill and I’m still a little traumatized by it.’
Sykes told Ellen she was returning to the theater from her trailer when the slap happened.
She said ‘when I got to the monitor backstage, I just saw Will leaving the stage, and everything was quiet. And I was like, ‘What happened, what happened?!”
Sykes added that when she saw the video replay, she said it made her feel sick.
And said she was shocked when Smith was allowed to stay in the theater to accept his Oscar and enjoy the rest of the show.

Sykes told Ellen she was returning to the theater from her trailer when the slap happened. She walked into a silent theater and had the same question others did, ‘what is happening’
Sykes told Ellen during the interview that Smith should have been removed from the building immediately after he slapped Rock.
‘For them to let him stay in that room and enjoy the rest of the show and accept his award…. I was like, ‘How gross is this?’ she said.
‘This is just the wrong message. You assault somebody, you get escorted out of the building, and that’s it.
‘But for them to let him continue, I thought it was gross. I wanted to be able run out after he won and say, ‘Unfortunately, Will couldn’t be here tonight…’
Sykes, who made her hosting debut alongside Amy Schumer and Regina Hall Sunday night, said she knows Smith apologized to Rock, but pointed out, ‘No one has apologized to us.’
‘We worked really hard to put that show together — so I’m like, what the hell is this?,’ Sykes said.
‘We were the hosts, this is ‘our house,’ we’re gonna take care of y’all tonight and no one has apologized to us,’ Sykes told DeGeneres.
‘And we worked really had to put that show together.’
But Sykes said she did receive an apology from the one person who she said did not owe her one.
She explained that she ran into Rock at a party that night, and he told her ‘I’m so sorry!’
‘I was like, ‘Why are YOU apologizing?’ He was like, ‘It was supposed to be your night, you and Amy and Regina. And this is now going to be about this.’
Her comments come just hours after fellow co-host Amy Schumer weighed in on the incident, saying she is ‘still triggered and traumatized’ by the ‘disturbing’ moment.
In a post shared to her Instagram account in the early hours of Wednesday morning, Schumer, 40, said that she is still feeling the impact of the on-stage altercation.
‘Still triggered and traumatized,’ she wrote on Instagram early Wednesday.
‘I love my friend Chris Rock and believe he handled it like a pro. Stayed up there and gave an Oscar to his friend Questlove and the whole thing was so disturbing.
‘So much pain in Will Smith…
‘Anyway I’m still in shock and stunned and sad. Im proud of myself and my cohosts. But yeah. Waiting for this sickening feeling to go away from what we all witnessed.’
Schumer – who has been close friends with Rock for several years – tried to make a joke out of the incident, jokingly asking the audience if she had ‘missed anything’ and noting that ‘there’s, like, a different vibe in here’ when she returned to her hosting duties in the minutes after Smith slapped Rock on-stage.

In a letter leaked on Tuesday night, signed by Academy president David Rubin and CEO Dawn Hudson, it states that the ‘Academy’s Board of Governors will now make a determination on appropriate action for Mr. Smith.’
Smith faces a range of outcomes, including forcing him to hand back his Oscar.
The most severe punishment would be expulsion from the Academy.
That would put Smith among the ranks of Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and Roman Polanski, who were all expelled for sexual misconduct.
Weinstein was expelled ‘for ‘sexually predatory behavior and workplace harassment’ and Cosby and Polanski were expelled ‘in accordance with the organization’s Standards of Conduct’ after they had been convicted of sexual assault.
Weinstein and Polanski’s Oscars were never rescinded.
Jim Carrey, 60, led the condemnation of Smith, and said he was aghast by the adoration with which Smith was received after the attack.
‘I was sickened by the standing ovation,’ he said, referring to when Smith took home the Best Actor award not long after the slap incident.
‘I felt like Hollywood is just spineless en masse. It really felt like this is a clear indication that we’re not the cool club anymore.’

Read the full letter sent to members of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences
Dear Members,
Sunday’s telecast of the 94th Oscars was meant to be a celebration of the many individuals in our community who did incredible work this past year. We are upset and outraged that those moments were overshadowed by the unacceptable and harmful behavior on stage by a nominee.
To be clear, we condemn Mr. Smith’s actions that transpired Sunday night.
As outlined in our bylaws, the Academy’s Board of Governors will now make a determination on appropriate action for Mr. Smith. As governed by California law regarding members of nonprofit organizations like the Academy, and set forth in our Standards of Conduct, this must follow an official process that will take a few weeks.
We will continue to update you on any developments, but we also ask that you respect your Board, Academy staff and the process as this unfolds so it can work in the considered way it was intended and mandated.
Please trust that the Board of Governors will conduct this process in a manner that is both expedient and respectful of all involved while maintaining the standards of the Academy.
Thank you,
David Rubin, PresidentDawn Hudson, CEO
Benedict Cumberbatch, a fellow best actor nominee, as well as best director nominee Paul Thomas Anderson and actress Maya Rudolph were some of the stars who stood for Smith’s win. Venus and Serena Williams, whose father was portrayed by Smith in King Richard, also stood.
Carrey, who briefly overlapped with Rock in the early 90s on Fox’s In Living Color, claimed Rock didn’t file charges about the slap because he ‘didn’t want the hassle’ and suggested Smith should have been arrested.
‘I’d have announced this morning that I was suing Will for $200 million because that video’s gonna be there forever. It’s gonna be ubiquitous. That insult is gonna last a very long time,’ Carrey said.
The Mask actor seemed to indicate that expressing disapproval of the joke, by saying something on Twitter or even yelling from the audience, wasn’t beyond the pale – but what Smith ended up doing crossed the line.
‘You do not have the right to walk up on stage and smack somebody on the face because they said words,’ Carrey said.
He suggested that something was ‘going on’ inside of Smith that caused him to do that, and that he acted selfishly.
‘It didn’t escalate, it came out of nowhere because Will has something going on inside him that’s frustrated and I wish him the best, I really do,’ Carrey said.
‘I don’t have anything against Will Smith, he’s done great things.
‘It cast a pall over everybody’s shining moment, a lot of people worked really hard to get to that place,’ The Truman Show star added.
‘It is no mean feat to go through all the stuff you have to go through when you get nominated for an Oscar.
‘It’s a gauntlet of devotion. It was just a selfish moment.’
Carrey’s comments come as The View host Whoopi Goldberg, who is also a member of the Academy board of governors, said she believes Smith will be able to keep his Oscar but will face ‘big consequences – because nobody is OK with what happened.’
Whoopi Goldberg doubled down on her promise to punish Will Smith during Tuesday’s show, saying, ‘There are consequences. There are big consequences because nobody is OK with what happened. Nobody, nobody, nobody’
‘This is a season for healing and I’m here for it,’ the actress posted to Instagram Tuesday, two days after the incident that stunned millions of viewers

Two days after the incident, Will’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, 50, finally broke her silence with an Instagram post that read, ‘This is a season for healing and I’m here for it.’
Goldberg doubled down on Tuesday on her promise to punish Smith, saying: ‘There are consequences. There are big consequences because nobody is OK with what happened. Nobody, nobody, nobody.’
The host claimed that producer Will Packer decided not to remove Smith from the event, ‘because that would have been another 15-, 20 minute-explanation about why we’re taking the black man out five seconds before they’re about to decide whether he’s won an Oscar or not.’
Goldberg did not know that he had been asked to leave, and refused to go.
Marshall Herskovitz, president emeritus of the Producers Guild of America, was among the first to condemn Smith, tweeting shortly after the attack that Smith had ‘disgraced our entire community’.
He said: ‘I call upon the Academy, of which I am a member, to take disciplinary action against Will Smith. He disgraced our entire community tonight.’
Herskovitz accused those who defended the actor of ‘moral cowardice’.
‘People standing up and applauding after the first assault in 94 years of Oscar history. Moral cowardice,’ he said.
Several Hollywood celebrities denounced Smith’s actions.
Alec Baldwin posted to Instagram and Twitter his condemnation of Smith’s behavior.
‘I’m sorry the Oscars turned into the Jerry Springer Show,’ he said.
