Will Smith: Violence is a poisonous substance. Will Smith stated his actions at the Academy Awards last night were wrong and terrible.
The 94th Academy Awards were held in Los Angeles, USA yesterday. It was attended by a large number of hollywood celebrities. Actor Will Smith, who won his first oscar for Best Actor at the awards ceremony, slapped the show's host on the cheek.
Chris Rock, the host, made a joke on Will Smith's wife's appearance. On social media, footage from the incident went viral.
Will Smith, the actor, has expressed regret for the incident. On his instagram feed, he wrote, "Violence is like poison." My behaviour at last night's Academy Awards was both unprofessional and unacceptable.
Even though it was part of my job, I couldn't bear being teased about Jada's condition. That is what caused me to become agitated and emotional.
Chris, I'd like to express my sincere regret to you. I overstepped my bounds and committed a mistake. I'm humiliated, and my behaviour does not reflect the man I want to be. In a world full of love and compassion, violence has no place.
I apologise to the Academy, the show's producers, the contestants, and everyone else who watched the show throughout the world. "I'd like to express my regret to the Williams family as well as my king Richard family."
