It has been about three months since Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars over a bad joke the latter made about Jada Smith. Since then, he has been silent, but today he released an apology video.
Smith says that he reached out to Rock, but the victim is not ready to talk to him just yet. And if I were Rock, I wouldn’t talk to him because I think Smith would turn it into a publicity stunt.
The actor apologized to Rock’s family, his family, and the nominees, but not the hosts.
Smith also said that he was not provoked by his wife’s eye roll. He reacted to his history with Rock making fun of him and his wife.
The Bad Boy says, “disappointing people is his personal trauma. I hate when I let people down.” Then he said he is working on himself because of that, he is “deeply remorseful. And I am trying to be remorseful without being ashamed of myself.”
Smith admits that he made a mistake, but he is not trying to think of himself as a “piece of shit.” But he is for what he did. And admitting that will help him move forward in our eyes.
Finally, he concluded the nearly six-minute “apology” video with, “If you hang on, I promise we’ll be able to be friends again.”
So what is my take on this video? For someone who won the Oscar for Best Actor at this year’s Academy Awards, I would think he could’ve done a better acting job.
For someone who says he is remorseful, I didn’t see any of that. All I saw was his co-star in I, Robot.
Loni Love has lost 30 pounds, thanks to Sheryl Underwood, and I love why she did it. Why? To have better sex! Did it work?
Since the comedian admitted that on The Talk and not her old show The Real, we did not get the answer. But she wouldn’t admit that without such a massive smile on her face unless she did!
So congrats to Love on losing the weight and having better sex!
