@paekakboyz saw a headline where Rock has said he wont lay charges
Probably did a stunt slap. Just for the wife's benefit. Someone owes someone a beer or two
Yeah I had another look, I think this is accurate.
Yeah definitely, Smith looks like he's trying to stifle a laugh when he's walking away and the whole slapping action from Smith's weird "I'll teach you a lesson boy" stance to Rock swinging his head back like he's been slapped in a wrestling ring.

The people going up to comfort Smith (wtf he was the one who took a swing) didn't seem to think it was an act. Bizarre

Agreed the slap itself looked staged…but his shouting when back in his seat and rock reaction didn’t…

Well at least Twitter has finally moved on from the war

That's the thing with actors and actresses. You never know when it's all just an act....

Only in Hollywood could somebody be physically assaulted, and the person who committed the offence be the one that required all the sympathy / comforting.
Regardless of what you think about the joke, either violence is never acceptable or it is. Clearly, Hollywood thinks it is.

@majorrage brief viewings I've seen show Smith apologising to everyone but Rock (and unashamedly begging to keep his career). Nobody has even batted an eyelid at that, so did he apologise to Rock and it just wasn't in the clips?

You obviously think Chris rock is a better actor than I do!…and I don’t believe will smith would agree to yell fuck in the middle of the Oscar’s as a “skit”
-
@kiwiwomble hang on a moment! I'm not the believer here ...
-
@bones yeah, so you’re saying they were acting…I think the slap looked fake…but the shit after didnt…because I don’t think Chris rock is that good an actor and he looked really flustered…stumbled over the award he was giving…which is why the whole thing is just weird
-
@kiwiwomble I haven't watched that much of it, so maybe you're right. Seems legit, Will Smith Swore! And Chris Rock stumbled.

Now Will Smith is forever that guy who hit someone at an award ceremony.
Would have been way easier to justify if he'd hit a white guy.
Could of gone on about white victimization of blacks or something.
What an idiot!!!Personally, I think he hit him because of the joke.
I don’t think it was staged, and I do think Smith lost control.
I know a boatload of people to whom you couldn't make a joke about their wife, especially pointing out something they are probably pretty embarrassed about. If I were honest, I'm probably one of them.
These guys are just people, and even though it is a big big stage, they can still make stupid decisions (which this was).
I wouldn't have a problem with Rock pressing charges, but then he'd be known as the guy who made fun of a guys wife and then couldn't take the slap he may or may not have deserved.
For the record, I thought it was a shit joke unless he was sure that she would see the funny side.
