Chris Rock said, "Will Smith smacked the shit out of me." The celebrities present at the ceremony were shocked to see this happening and viewers even wondered if it was scripted, which it wasn’t.?

The next day, Will Smith apologised on social media for his actions?but also said that he is not okay with people joking about his wife’s illness. “Violence in all its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behaviour at last night's Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable," the 53-year-old actor wrote in an Instagram post. He added,?"I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong,” he wrote, adding, “Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada's medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally."
