It seems like Hollywood and the world have still not been able to get over the whole Chris and Will Smith feud. There have been many reactions dropping, while some are absolutely in favor of Will there are some who want to suspend him.
But it seems like The Truman Show star Jim Carrey is very upset with the whole scenario. The actor is criticizing the Hollywood personalities for giving Will Smith a standing ovation when it was announced at the Oscars that he won the best actor for “King Richard.”
“I was sickened,” Carrey told CBS’ Gayle King (via HuffPost). “I was sickened by the standing ovation. Hollywood is just spineless en masse and it really felt like this is a really clear indication that we aren’t the cool club anymore.”
He further mentioned, “I’d have announced this morning that I was suing Will for $200 million because that video is going to be there forever, it’s going to be ubiquitous,” Carrey said. “That insult is gonna last a very long time. If you want to yell from the audience and show disapproval or say something on Twitter [that’s fine]. But you do not have the right to walk up on stage and smack somebody in the face because they said words.”
Will Smith had issued an apology to Rock on the night after the Oscars, which was accepted by the latter.
