Will Smith: Oscar Academy sentences Chris Rock after his strike

The Academy Awards has announced its decision regarding Will Smith following the 2022 Oscars.

On March 27, Will Smith sparked a scandal after Chris Rock’s joke in the middle of an Oscar ceremony over a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith.

The American comedian has since apologized and left the Oscar Academy, awaiting sanctions from the organizers.

The board of directors finally issued a verdict after disciplinary proceedings were initiated against the artist.

Will Smith was banned from the Oscars

The latter is now banned from participating in any Oscar ceremony for a period of 10 years.

“I accept and respect the decision of the Academy”– Will Smith responded to the press release.

Following his attack on Chris Rock, Will Smith won an Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Williams Method. That is why she will not present the statue of the best actress next year, as is the tradition.
