Some youtubers gave us the answer to the question that we all ask ourselves at the moment: what happened to Chris Rock after the slap Will Smith gave him?
According to reports, after the unfortunate event, the rating of the Oscars increased massively, going from 9.6 to 17.4.
So far, neither Chris Rock nor the Oscar winner have spoken; however, Will Smith apologized upon receiving the statuette from him.
A video is already circulating on YouTube showing what happened to Chris Rock after being attacked by Will Smith after making a joke about the medical condition of his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. The actor, moments after being beaten, continued with the ceremony and decided to continue speaking, however, after he left the stage, nothing was heard from him all night.
The Oscars, until before that moment, were for some moments below the historical minimum rating, achieved last year, which was 9.85 million, placing this year’s edition at 9.6 million. However, after the violent act of Will Smith, the academy received an audience of almost twice as many viewers, with 17.4 million.
And it is that this unfortunate act ended up kidnapping the attention of the winners, since, According to Google Trends, in the last hours, only in Mexico, users buried the search for “Oscar” or “Oscar Awards”, prioritizing what happened between “Will Smith” and Chris Rock”. In fact, “Guillermo del Toro”, on this important night for the commercial film industry, was also one of the recurring searches that were overshadowed by the actor’s slap in the face of the comedian.
Memes and tiktoks explaining what happened or joking about the fact, did not wait. Even the Academy expressed itself after what happenedmentioning that the institution does not condone or agree with any kind of violence exercised by the actor, or by anyone.
The Academy does not condone violence of any form.
Tonight we are delighted to celebrate our 94th Academy Awards winners, who deserve this moment of recognition from their peers and movie lovers around the world.
