Be it creating history by recognising talents across races, or honouring creativity beyond geographical boundaries, the Academy Awards are known to make headlines each year.
Red carpet outfits, moving speeches, followed by memes are customary. However, the 94th Academy Awards seemed outlandish with the unsavoury slapping incident. The tussle between Will Smith and Chris Rock led to an ocean of memes on social media.
Dairy brand Amul, known for its ingenious topicals on pop culture, shared a poster on the infamous slapping incident at the Academy Awards. The quirky doodle from the brand showed caricatures of Will Smith and Chris Rock in the heated moment. ‘Chris Rocked by slap!’ and ‘Snack. Don’t Smack!’ were the captions used by Amul for its latest topical.
‘King Richard’ actor Will Smith who bagged the Best Actor trophy, slapped host comedian Chris Rock after he joked about his wife on stage. The video clip of Smith slapping Rock is presently one of the most viewed and shared videos on social media.
In the middle of the event, Will Smith got on the stage and smacked comedian Chris Rock sending shockwaves across the hall. The comedian had made an off-colour joke about Smith’s wife. The ‘Gemini Man’ actor lost his cool and walked up to Rock.
Rock had compared Jada Pinkett Smith’s cropped hair to Demi Moore’s look in ‘GI Jane’ (1997). After the comment, Will slapped Rock saying, “Keep my wife’s name out of your ***** mouth.” Jada Pinkett had revealed in 2018 that she suffers from alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss.
