While the drama at the Oscars may be far from over, new reports reveal how actor Will Smith reportedly taught a boy named Chris how to conduct a false slap.
The shocking footage was recently obtained by TMZ, which comprised of a shocking video that showed the winner of this year’s ‘Best Actor’ award teaching the art of a fake slap to a group of young kids.
This youngster was coincidently named Chris and he could be seen asking the actor in an innocent tone how the celeb manages to carry out fake fights in his hit movies with sheer ease.
And as you can probably imagine, the actor who many are now deeming a true slapoholoic, continued to do what he’s best it- a slap!
Obviously and thankfully the star did not actually slap the young child, but the fact that the footage was taken before the actual dramatic slap took place on stage is truly unfortunate.
During this year’s Oscars, the world watched in complete awe as actor Will Smith slapped comedian Chris Rock for joking about his wife’s shaved head. In the same way, he could be seen threatening the comedian and warning him against using his wife’s name again.
The incident clearly baffled the comedian, as it did to so many of us watching at home. But it is true that the star has since then, managed to generate an apology, albeit scripted.
In addition to that, the actor’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith was seen breaking her silence over the incident by mentioning on her Instagram account how this is a season for healing and she’s embracing it.
The slap turned out to be a hot topic on social media, especially Twitter, where hundreds of jokes and memes filled the air regarding the apparent smackdown.
