Re: Oscar's 2022, Was this for real?

[ Edited ]

Jada has a medical condition that makes her hair fall out so she was upset with Chris Rock's joke.  Once Will realized Jada was upset he got up and went to smack Chris in the face.  I missed it as I was talking on the phone and watching at the same time.  Will did apologize but not to Chris.  I do think that Jada could have stopped Will but she did not.  At first Will was smiling at the remark.  Jada's green gown was over the top with a long train looked like a casket lining dyed green and she was laying in the casket, got up and took the whole lining with her.  lol

@jellyBEAN I was also sad to see Liza Minnelli in that condition.  She's only 76.

I guess Will had to make a show out of "protecting" his wife who admittedly told the world that she cheated him.

@jellyBEAN , ICAM, I thought Gaga was so kind and gracious with LM and did a wonderful job with her.  I was very impressed.

 

As far as Will Smith, just beyond tacky.  I don't understand why he wasn't escorted out.  He physically assaulted somebody on national tv, sat back down, got a pep talk from his buddies and then won an award and received applause.   

Meanwhile, they had to keep flashing "Oscars" on the screen when they panned to the Williams girls since the one was hanging out of her dress...usually she had her arms covering herself but she must have moved at the times so they had to flash "Oscars.   Of couse I don't know that for a fact, just that in the pics I saw of her pre-show she was exposing her n**s so I assume that was the issue.  Not that you could see them through the dress, the dress didn't fully cover them.

I thought that it was very poor form on Will's part. Violence is NEVER the way.

 

How did he not get arrested on the spot? IMO, our whole society has changed and not for the better. Betweeen politics, the pandemic and Ukraine everyone is teetering on the edge.

Don't watch it and haven't for years. Last movie I saw in a theater was Midway, when it first came out, 80's maybe? The names mentioned in these posts? Only one I recognize is Kardashian.

 

My wife used to watch them, but she said too many sermons of a political nature, so she quit.

I watched the entire show and the Will Smith- Chris Rock moment was unbelievable + shocking to say the least.

Re: Oscar's 2022, Was this for real?

I feel like both men were out of bounds but Will was way out.  With turmoil and devastation currently playing in the real world, the entire debacle was repulsive. 

Almost as revolting were the $150,000 swag bags given to celebrity attendees which included, among other things, a plot of land in Scotland, organic vodka and gold dusted brownies.  How lovely for them, eh?
