Heard of this earlier this morning. I never watch the Oscars because I don't care about an academy that gives Titanic a billion Oscars.
Anyway, I watched the video and Will Smith actually laughs at the joke at first... but then jumps out of his seat and you know the rest. So was he slow at processing the joke or did his wife tell him to do something about it? Either way, Will Smith ooked and sounded pissed at the end where he kept yelling at Chris Rock to keep his wife's name out of his mouth.
I don't think Chris Rock went that far really. You're expected to hear a comedian joke about you at such events when you're famous. Ricky Gervais said some worst things some years ago where he even joked about Mel Gibsons alcoholism and did you see anyone slapping him? No.
It's fine if you don't like someone joking about your wife, but that doesn't give you the right to climb on stage and assault them. How come security neither stopped Will Smith or escorted him out of the building?
As for being "fake", I'd believe that if all Will Smith did Was slap Chris Rock. But no, he yelled at him from his seat afterwards and looked visibly pissed off. Sounded very genuine. And Will Smith is nowhere near a good enough actor to pull such a public stunt off that naturally.
