<\/p>\n
“So why the f*** did you just spit on yourself and everybody else with this stupid f***ing thing? Why did I go to f***ing jail for what you just did? And you\u2019re still sitting there?<\/p>\n
“Why are you guys standing and applauding his worst moment as a person?”<\/p>\n
The Mystic River actor spoke about the incident as he slammed the Oscars for reportedly not allowing Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to share a message during the ceremony like other shows did.<\/p>\n
Sean believes producers may have thought, ‘Oh he\u2019s not light-hearted enough’. Well, guess what you got instead? Will Smith!\u201d<\/p>\n
He went on to say the incident “would never have happened” if the President was there.<\/p>\n

There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”<\/p>\n Will also resigned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which banned him from attending its events for 10 years.<\/p>\n Chris, who declined to press charges against the actor, said the slap “still hurt” a year on in his Netflix special Selective Outrage.<\/p>\n He said to the camera: “Everybody knows, yes it happened, I got slapped a year ago \u2013 I got smacked by this motherf***er.<\/p>\n “And people are like, \u2018Did it hurt?\u2019 It still hurts. I\u2019ve got Summertime [Will’s song] ringing in my ears.”<\/p>\n Jada previously spoke out about her condition in 2018 on her show Red Table Talk. Alopecia is a general term for hair loss, although there are nine different types of the condition.<\/p>\n The two most common types are androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, which Jada is believed to have.<\/p>\n The autoimmune condition causes hair to fall out, usually in patches on the scalp or other places on the body that grow hair, such as the beard, eyebrows or eyelashes.<\/p>\n
