Jada is toxic though. The way she has absolute 0 consideration for her husbands feelings and what she puts him through when she's openly talking about their marriage on her bullshit talkshow, airing entanglements and all that crap that should be kept private between husband and wife. Clearly that's what Will would have preferred so why is she being such a toxic cunt every chance she gets?

Will simp

No he's not. Emotional/psychological abuse is a real thing. It happens to men too, don't make em simps

Why he cant dump her for real wtf

Honestly I don't get how he can get his dick hard for her when the occassion calls but to each their own I guess

When I first saw it, I thought it was fake mainly cause of the fake mic sound and seeing both guys stance and wills hand aiming down with a weak slap hand.

Then when I knew it was fake was the reactions, Chris Rock pretty much gave it away, even will kinda laughs as he's walking back. As someone who's been in fights and seen them firsthand, they rarely elicit those type of reactions, even from bystanders.

Then to add to it, just think how someone can walk so casually towards someone and hit them then walk back. You'd definitely have some background people step in.

Lol @ the everything-is-a-conspiracy-and-the-earth-is-flat mofos. You have absolute 0 instinct about anything real anymore

It was not an act. Your analysis sucks bc you are seeing what you choose to see due to your flat-earther gene and ignoring all the other signs. Here is what I see



1. Will Smith laughed at the joke first. If it was fake, his reaction would have been consistant from the moment they cut to him.

2. After the slap Chris Rock obviousely had a hard time getting back to his speech, performing as if in shock. There was no punchline in his performance which they would have had if it was staged and not just left it out there hanging..

3. Will Smith dropping the F-bomb. Unacceptable at the Oscars!

4. Behind-the-scenes video of Will's colleagues comforting him after they cut to commercial

5. Chris declining to file a police report, according to LAPD! Surely if it was fake the LAPD would have been informed beforehand, that's how that works.

6. It's not a seedy stand up club so joking about violence - especially two black men getting at it - would have been inappropriate in this time and place and the Acadamy wouldn't stand by it

7. The fact that they apperantly cut the live show in the US right as Chris was about to get slapped but this is only something one DXP'er claimed so may not be true. The rest are facts.



How could all of this have escaped you when chose to go the "fake" route? Talk about lazy thinking

It was clearly fake lol. Anyone who thinks it's real has been watching too much TV.

Good analysis tho. Idk why people get all upset. If you guys think it's absolutely real then why even react. Defending it emotionally is a clear indicator that you want it to be real. You guys need to get out more

Haha. Dude I just read what you posted. The funniest one was the cop theory. You guys are seriously in a comfy zone as to how things work in the real world.

If it was fake they both would deserve Oscars for the best perfomance.

Why would someone as PR conscious as Will Smith agree to a deal that makes him look like a joke? All of his previous PR work and externally projected image tries to make him and his family look the model of happiness wholesomeness.

Cui bono?

He defended his wife. The narrative continues. He was consoled and given an award after assaulting someone.

He's a good actor but not psychopath level, they're the most convincing cause they actually believe it. Will couldn't even hold his laughter.

They consoled him bc his reaction was coming from a place inside himself that clearly made him angry/sad.. whereas Chris was just cracking a joke.. why would they console him? Who's at a worst place at that time? Will is the loser either way and that's why he got the sympathy.

You have absolute 0 insight in anything human. Lol @ pulling the psychopath card over a guy giving another guy a slap 🤣

it's not like they decided to give him the award right before they read his name. That was voted for long time ago. Ffs are you even for real anymore?

I mean imagine married to a cold, unemotional calculating wife. Enough to drive anyone mad lol

She has Virgo Pluto conjunct her Venus and Sun. @_@

Imagine loving someone who is cold, unemotional, always controlled, stating a dead person is their love of their life, always find faults in the relationship.

I’ve been with a man like that. It’s enough to drive someone to the brink

They are talking about taking the award from him right now

I kinda feel sorry for him cuz Jada is taking him down.

So I guess that would magically make his not voted best actor of 2021? Wtf does one have to do with another? These fucking ppl I swear 🤣

Hopefully Jada wakes up from her Cruella slumber this time around and sees more clearly how her actions affect Will and her marriage.

Bytch plz. Will won best actor fair and square. The other thing has nothing to do with the movie he made

I’m just shocked because he’s a Libra and I have never seen Libras, especially a refined one like Will, snap like that especially in a public space filled with their fraterniTy who determine the fate of your career. He must be going through something emotionally. I think he’s on a verge of mental breakdown.

Posted by MareInfame

And then when the reality of what he did hits him… he starts crying 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Just awful…

Had he really meant it. He wouldn’t have regretted a damn thing. But he was crying because he was not fully in agreement with his behavior.

He needs to do things HIS WAY… not JADA’s way. That is just hell. And obviously not working for him.

Not liking that bitch Jada. She comes off as controlling and manipulative.

I guess their son said “and that’s how we do it.”

They don’t have to give will shit for his performance in that movie if they don’t want too. They choose to have the show and give the awards to actors and actresses, they also have the right to take them away if you fuck up and make the Oscar’s look like another the source awards ceremony. I wouldn’t want some little boy who can’t control his emotions to represent my award ceremony the way will did.

I would take away the award I gave him and give it to the runner up because I wouldn’t want him to represent my ceremony honoring the actors and actresses who have better class than him. I would rather award someone like Chris for being the model of how a man should carry himself in that kind of situation in a setting like the freaking Oscar’s.

We have a lot of work to do as a society.

Whether this slap was real or contrived, look at all the people in this thread blaming Will's actions on Jada.

He is a grown ass man responsible for his own self.

He should have slapped Jada.

The fact he has no issue slapping someone on a national televised stage leads me to believe its very possible physical abuse could be occurring behind the scenes in their home.

He still best actor.... which is what the ceremony is about... and remains best actor even if they take the award from him bc the votes have been cast... so taking away his award serves no purpose to what the award show is about, which is awarding best performance of [insert year]

"Hours before the olive branch, a source told Page Six exclusively that the duo had arranged to work out their issues after the Academy Awards — during which the “King Richard” star apologized to everyone except Rock while accepting his Best Actor award."

https://pagesix.com/2022/03/28/diddy-will-smith-chris-rock-settled-feud-after-oscars-2022/

Sure, looking at the aftermath (Will's wife having a hair condition - "Alopecia Areata" - and that's why she cuts her hair G.I. Joe style ) - some might find Will's reaction appropriate. The 2nd part - where Will shouted at Chris... don't have a problem with that - but the violence part (even if it was just a bitch-slap) - is not - all things consider. It's not like Chris Rock - took her wife condition into account & made a joke out of pure malice. More like a shallow joke - based on first hand appearances alone (her hair being cut short like G.I. Joe - i'm pretty sure he didn't think about the reason... like her condition).

I do find it a bit ironic... knowing that Will acted ok (more like faking it) - with an open marriage... with her wife fucking other dudes - but can't take a light hearted joke about his wife. Well, we're all different - i guess. Which reminds me... just because most people "are even visibly angry (some to much)" - when angered, that's not to say - that everyone reacts exactly the same. More rare, but even in uncomfortable situations some may express the opposite - like laughter (on the surface at least - or an angry laughing expression - if you will). Yet, some took this detail alone into account - to rule it out as staged. As if Will, who was obviously aware of her hair condition - would stage a joke about it... where everyone's pretending to be uncomfortable, and... leave it at that. No punch line just rolling with it - keep being uncomfortable - more or less ruining the event in question - for everyone involved.

Kudos to Chris Rock for being a good sport about it. And fuck people like Will Smith - the type of people who would harass, hit or try to cancel a stand-up comedian - just cause they can't take a joke (as if the whole world revolves around them and their personal issues).

That's true. But taking away the award is probably more like a statement - that they don't indulge (put up) - with that type of behavior/reaction. Anyway, they're sure to take all things into account (public reactions in particular) - so it's still a maybe at this point (maybe they'll do that - maybe they won't).

Oki then, a (emotionally, psychologically, physically) battered wife is responsible for her own self and is to blame for not leaving her abusive husband.

You're such a fucking hypocryte it's absolutely mindblowing lol.

And you still didn't reply in that thread whether or not my gf sexually assaulted me for giving my a bj while I was sleeping and unable to consent. Care to comment now, hypocryte? 🙃

Ahh they made a joke about the open marriage at 47:37 that is what did it.

Posted by Bumboklaat

Anything can make sense if you want it to. The narrative is irrelevant if you believe it to be fake anyways. All your questions actually make sense but it's not that deep.

The actual act was fake. Forget the narrative, that goes way too much into speculation and things we don't actually see.

I'm talking about the actual act. There's no way someone reacts like that in a real situation. Even the hit was fake af. Who slaps like that? it's so theatrical. If I saw that on the street I'd laugh, it's some Broadway meets Disco movements. Plus Chris sticking his chin out right before and then doing that exaggerated pull back as if he'd connected with a full hand. It's clearly rehearsed.

And that's not even the biggest giveaway. The least believable was Wills yelling afterwards. I know he can do better than that. And his acceptance speech was mostly believable until he made overdramatic pauses and did the lying eye. Then Denzel trying to keep a straight face lol.

You do realize it's all over the news and even the fucking Acadamy has commented on it ffs. How far up your own ass you gotta be not to accept reality?

Real life is not a movie, it doesn't have to look credible. It just happens the way it happens.

Clearly you are living inside your own simulated reality. Good luck with that

To be fair, you never know what goes on inside a person. They may be at the absolute rock bottom. Comedians have been a given a free pass to insult ppl either way they please, in my book they need to leave some space for backfires, given what they do. Like I said, you never know what goes on inside a person.

Chris’ joke was out of line, but Will overreacted big time. How he publicly assaulted someone on stage, and the show just continued on as though nothing happened was odd. I thought for sure he would get escorted to the exit.

Guy’s on some kind of crazy power trip.

I don’t know that I would consider it a power trip.. more of a protective urge. He initially laughed at the joke, until he noticed the discomfort on Jada’s face then I think it evoked a strong emotional response from him. I remember back in December she talked publicly about her struggles with alopecia, so it’s a known sore spot for her.

click to expand

I mean, if he were protective of her, why didn’t he take offense from the get go? Why did he laugh at all?

The way I read it… he thought the joke was funny. Realized he was caught laughing at a jab made at his wife’s expense on national TV, which made him look like a poor husband, so he had to prove otherwise by hitting a man on stage. That, or he noticed she was angry at him for laughing, which in turn, made him angry at Chris.

The irony is that his childish aggression only further proves how powerless and little he really is. Now, his most prestigious award will forever be overshadowed by his emotional outburst.

Because I am interested in hearing your thoughts on why it's all over the news and why has the Acadamy bothered commenting on it the way that they have, if it is an act and not real?

You were wrong and you know it, so why are you still rolling with the "It was an act" -act?

Posted by Bumboklaat

I can believe the narrative but I don't because the act was fake, it lends doubt to the backstory.

If the slap or the acting was convincing then I would believe it.

Convincing HOW? The way movies are convincing? This is real life, things don't play out like in the movies.

And why is the media all over it if it's fake? Why has the Acadamy acknowledged it was real?

Posted by Bumboklaat

A hard slap at least. More believable with an over the shoulder punch which is the norm for a sucker punch. Also a more emotional reaction. It's just not consistent with what I've seen in real situations

Ohh now I see what your angle is.. it's all about you humble-bragging about seeing & being in fights so off you go on a tangent about "how fake that looked" 🤣

I've seen enough WWE and real life to notice the difference. Why do you believe the academy. Do you have their number? Do you have the inside scoop?

Since when is the media the authority over what's real?

Lol. I see your point but dude all these dubious institutions you are lending credibility to. It's ultimately entertainment. Which makes a lot of money.

Wtf are you expecting, an MMA tournament? Guy just went over to mark with a SLAP that a line was crossed, if he wanted he could have given him the fist.

It was real. I've trained/competed muay thai for 15 years, boxing for 7, and have done other martial arts. Will Smith is not a professional fighter, but his intent was to connect somehow. He reduced the impact of whatever he threw with his stance (on purpose) so he could just send a message, not so he could kill the guy and knock his teeth out...just because it looked theatrical, doesn't mean it was staged. It doesn't make sense that the Oscar's would create a fake narrative pitting two people of colour against each other (especially in the current political climate), nor does it make sense to stage the leading actor engaging in a violent act and then consequently receiving an award after. I personally do not see how that would be part of an act or skit, seems counterproductive. Also, aren't will and his wife scientologists? Hollywood produces some weirdos and strange ass behavior. Yes, he went too far with the alopecia joke....but to become violent over that? Come on. This sends the message that every comedian will be canceled if they push the envelope. Yet another unstable libra I've come across, no big surprise.

Then when I knew it was fake was the reactions, Chris Rock pretty much gave it away, even will kinda laughs as he's walking back. As someone who's been in fights and seen them firsthand, they rarely elicit those type of reactions, even from bystanders.

Then to add to it, just think how someone can walk so casually towards someone and hit them then walk back. You'd definitely have some background people step in.

Lol @ the everything-is-a-conspiracy-and-the-earth-is-flat mofos. You have absolute 0 instinct about anything real anymore

It was not an act. Your analysis sucks bc you are seeing what you choose to see due to your flat-earther gene and ignoring all the other signs. Here is what I see



1. Will Smith laughed at the joke first. If it was fake, his reaction would have been consistant from the moment they cut to him.

2. After the slap Chris Rock obviousely had a hard time getting back to his speech, performing as if in shock. There was no punchline in his performance which they would have had if it was staged and not just left it out there hanging..

3. Will Smith dropping the F-bomb. Unacceptable at the Oscars!

4. Behind-the-scenes video of Will's colleagues comforting him after they cut to commercial

5. Chris declining to file a police report, according to LAPD! Surely if it was fake the LAPD would have been informed beforehand, that's how that works.

6. It's not a seedy stand up club so joking about violence - especially two black men getting at it - would have been inappropriate in this time and place and the Acadamy wouldn't stand by it

7. The fact that they apperantly cut the live show in the US right as Chris was about to get slapped but this is only something one DXP'er claimed so may not be true. The rest are facts.



How could all of this have escaped you when chose to go the "fake" route? Talk about lazy thinking

It was clearly fake lol. Anyone who thinks it's real has been watching too much TV.

Good analysis tho. Idk why people get all upset. If you guys think it's absolutely real then why even react. Defending it emotionally is a clear indicator that you want it to be real. You guys need to get out more

Haha. Dude I just read what you posted. The funniest one was the cop theory. You guys are seriously in a comfy zone as to how things work in the real world.

If it was fake they both would deserve Oscars for the best perfomance.

Why would someone as PR conscious as Will Smith agree to a deal that makes him look like a joke? All of his previous PR work and externally projected image tries to make him and his family look the model of happiness wholesomeness.

Cui bono?

He defended his wife. The narrative continues. He was consoled and given an award after assaulting someone.

He's a good actor but not psychopath level, they're the most convincing cause they actually believe it. Will couldn't even hold his laughter.

My questions remains: Why would he agree to something that makes him look thus laughable to most people?

I just answered it. He defended his wife and was consoled and given an award.

Right, so you think he agreed to it to look like he is defending his wife and get an Oscar at the cost of being laughed at even more by people?

It's honorable. He won't get laughed at. His peers defending him is part of the act. Hollywood is the moral authority. Anyone who laughs at him will be fringe and just help to popularize the event. The larger goal is popularity.

So far the majority seems to think that he is even more of a joke now.

.

It got them back into the public eye for a moment, but it is very unlikely that it will translate into future attention and viewers.

They can literally make anything up.

They also moralize everything, our country was founded by puritans who went on witch hunts and by people who saw different races as inhuman

Now the crazy part is that popularity trumps( ignore the pun)logic

Just look at how many famous people/politicians have "absolved/redeemed" themselves. Look at our President, our "leaders" who are responsible for several civilian deaths. Although they personally don't do the work, they get the common man to do it, that way they can keep on preaching. It's a common human trait to hide the wolf between the sheep

It's also a common and psychological trait too look at certainties where there are none because it makes us feel better.

That's what makes conspiratorial like the one you display so attractive.

That's true but that slap and drama afterwards was fake af

You understand that authenticity doesn't always like authenticity to other people?

No I don't understand that particular comment.

My bad. I forgot the "look".

My question was if you understand that someone can act authentically without looking authentic to you or other people?

What do you think an authentic action from Will Smith would have been?

Yes of course. I often question myself and try to see things from different perspectives.

It would have to have been a serious moment of weakness for him to do that. I don't see it happening. But that goes into the whole narrative and moral, psychological suppositions.

The narrative can be believable tho. Someone insults your wife or family your gonna be upset and likely react.

In that regard I have nothing to say, everyone believes what they will.

I wouldn't say thinking that everyone can have their breaking points and eventually snap is a entering a narrative. If anything it's the opposite because it doesn't follow a consistent logic.

What would have made the act believable to you?

If the slap or the acting was convincing then I would believe it.

Yeah, but what would it have to look like for your to convince you?

A hard slap at least. More believable with an over the shoulder punch which is the norm for a sucker punch. Also a more emotional reaction. It's just not consistent with what I've seen in real situations

Do you think it was an authentic bitchslap?

Not even close. If you look at theatrical slaps like in soap operas or WWE(wrestling) theyre all similar. They involve fingers barely making contact with the chin and a cross motion not perpendicular to the ground. Classic theatre slap.

If youre gonna hit someone you're gonna bury it in their face, not do Kung Fu theatrics

Could it be that he goes by the muscle memory of what he has learned on set?

@antiphates

I'm sure it helps, but I'm sure they rehearsed it. I think everyone's in on it. The reactions are mostly unbelievable. In a few years you'll hear a lower tier actor say it was all scripted in an obscure podcast

let me guess, the illuminati orchestrated this entire thing? -_-

Definitely not staged. Of course.

The ratings just jumped an unheard 50+ % from last years life support ratings.

What a natural rebound from what was historic lows.

Actors acting for ratings and academy acknowledgement?! Gasp never. Totally out of the realm of possibility.

If this was not scripted they would've already removed Will from Academy membership. If they do so I'll be proved wrong.

He should have slapped Jada.

The fact he has no issue slapping someone on a national televised stage leads me to believe its very possible physical abuse could be occurring behind the scenes in their home.

Gross take to wish violence on someone tho. Your wrong for that.

Oh please, if anyone is getting abused around there it's cuckold Will, not Jada.

It's quite sad they have to unite in this way. It's like those pledge funds. For only 1 dollar a day you too can support a struggling Hollywood celebrity get their daily Starbucks

It is funny to me that the people adamantly defending this as being real are non Americans. Yes everything you see on telly is real. We exported our brain rot to the world, I'm so sorry ya'll.

My opinion, for it to be staged, it has to be comical and you know the Academy doesnt do comedy, neither does SNL.

Dad Joke Alert: There can be 100 people in the room. 99 of them won’t slap you, but 1 Will.

I can't help but chuckle at how people are reacting. Will slaps Chris Rock and the comments section is filled with it. A thread has over 200 replies in less than 24 hours.

Anyway, Will and Jada are both clowns who need to step away from the media and deal with their shit privately.

It was real. I've trained/competed muay thai for 15 years, boxing for 7, and have done other martial arts. Will Smith is not a professional fighter, but his intent was to connect somehow. He reduced the impact of whatever he threw with his stance (on purpose) so he could just send a message, not so he could kill the guy and knock his teeth out...just because it looked theatrical, doesn't mean it was staged. It doesn't make sense that the Oscar's would create a fake narrative pitting two people of colour against each other (especially in the current political climate), nor does it make sense to stage the leading actor engaging in a violent act and then consequently receiving an award after. I personally do not see how that would be part of an act or skit, seems counterproductive. Also, aren't will and his wife scientologists? Hollywood produces some weirdos and strange ass behavior. Yes, he went too far with the alopecia joke....but to become violent over that? Come on. This sends the message that every comedian will be canceled if they push the envelope. Yet another unstable libra I've come across, no big surprise.

Ooh… I’d like to know more about your training, impressive amount of years 👌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I agree with all you wrote. Only correction is on Scientology - they aren’t Scientologist.

He's well documented cheating on her for decades. But I don't see you advocating for domestic physical violence against his person, only hers.

Being cheated on is not cool. Neither is wishing physical harm on someone. You still wrong for that.

She was cheating on him with Tupac

Tupac’s hologram gets more ass then the average dxp member. True story.

I wonder if he overreacted bc she has cancer and not just alopecia. Bc I have thinning hair as a woman and I can still take a fucking joke. Yeah it sucks but it is what it is, why not find the humor in it?? Like, he seemed like he was laughing along until he noticed her rolling her eyes and taking the joke badly. I mean come on!!! As he said, that was tame (as fuck compared to all the jokes he could of made about them).

Ngl I probably would love to have a husband who defended my honor so resolutely lol.

When I first saw it, I thought it was fake mainly cause of the fake mic sound and seeing both guys stance and wills hand aiming down with a weak slap hand.

Then when I knew it was fake was the reactions, Chris Rock pretty much gave it away, even will kinda laughs as he's walking back. As someone who's been in fights and seen them firsthand, they rarely elicit those type of reactions, even from bystanders.

Then to add to it, just think how someone can walk so casually towards someone and hit them then walk back. You'd definitely have some background people step in.

Lol @ the everything-is-a-conspiracy-and-the-earth-is-flat mofos. You have absolute 0 instinct about anything real anymore

It was not an act. Your analysis sucks bc you are seeing what you choose to see due to your flat-earther gene and ignoring all the other signs. Here is what I see



1. Will Smith laughed at the joke first. If it was fake, his reaction would have been consistant from the moment they cut to him.

2. After the slap Chris Rock obviousely had a hard time getting back to his speech, performing as if in shock. There was no punchline in his performance which they would have had if it was staged and not just left it out there hanging..

3. Will Smith dropping the F-bomb. Unacceptable at the Oscars!

4. Behind-the-scenes video of Will's colleagues comforting him after they cut to commercial

5. Chris declining to file a police report, according to LAPD! Surely if it was fake the LAPD would have been informed beforehand, that's how that works.

6. It's not a seedy stand up club so joking about violence - especially two black men getting at it - would have been inappropriate in this time and place and the Acadamy wouldn't stand by it

7. The fact that they apperantly cut the live show in the US right as Chris was about to get slapped but this is only something one DXP'er claimed so may not be true. The rest are facts.



How could all of this have escaped you when chose to go the "fake" route? Talk about lazy thinking

You can say it's real all you want, but can't prove it. I can prove the earth isn't flat however. I personally believe it's real, but also can admit I can't prove it was real and not an act. You using personal opinion isn't fact.
