Talk surrounding Sunday night’s Oscars ceremony is very much fixated around one specific event: the altercation between presenter Chris Rock and award-winning actor Will Smith.
Midway through the evening’s proceedings, Rock made an ill-advised joke in the lead-up to announcing the documentary feature winner that sent things sideways. He cracked a joke at Jada Pinkett’s Smith’s expense, taking aim at hair loss the actress has experienced in recent years. The joke — which indicated that Pinkett Smith’s bald head was preparation for a role in G.I. Jane 2 — landed poorly, particularly after it prompted Pinkett Smith’s husband, Will Smith, to exit his seat and confront Rock.
