The events of this year's Ocsar's ceremony will stay in the mind for many years to come. And unfortunately, the events of the 94th annual ceremony will not be remembered for the right reasons.
Past blunders are still recalled such as the 2018 La La Land/Moonlight mix-up when Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty announced the wrong Best Picture winner, but the talking point of this year's event will most certainly be Will Smith's 'altercation' with Chris Rock. Smith took a swing at Rock following the comedian's joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s haircut. The Academy has made a statement.
Taking to Twitter, The Academy, has said it "does not condone violence of any form". Following an altercation between best actor winner Will Smith and comedian Chris Rock, the statement continued: “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.”
