I’m genuinely stunned it wasn’t Olivia Colman. I kind of thought she was incapable of losing.
In theory, yes. But she's like Meryl - people take her talent for granted and skip her turn to win. She could literally win for everything she ever does. Thankfully it seems like she doesn't care too much!
I'm gonna be honest, Will had every right to slap the shit out of Chris Rock for making fun of his wife's condition.
We're in the minority here, but I kind of agree. Assault is wrong, clearly, but if you go after someone's partner's illness, all bets are off. I'm certainly not going to cancel Will over it.
Not that there's any confusion anymore over whether it was real, but people are saying Will had to be calmed down during commercial break and was crying and that during rehearsals he didnt go on stage during Chris Rock's segment.

That man is 53 years old, and he knew he fucked up. You throw Chris under the bus via a tweet, via a press conference, but to do what he did...he knew he royally screwed up in a way that takes away a lot of what he worked hard to get. He took away the spotlight from the story he told in that performance, and took away the spotlight from the Williams family with his personal reaction. I'm a tough fighter who is also a protector, but optics are everything. Those were a bad choice of optics.

Also if someone did that for ME, if I was Jada, I would be FURIOUS. Jada and her Red Table Talks make it VERY clear she is her own person. That assault doesn't protect her in the least - it's a perfect example of toxic masculinity.
No excuse to physically harm someone over a joke, much less during a live televised FORMAL awards show. They weren’t down at the local watering hole. 🙄

All of that is right. He did make a mistake. I think Chris Rock did too. The slap wasn't justified, but it's understandable, if that makes sense? The joke is neither, imo. Just don't go there. Maybe that flies in a comedy club or in a roast setting, but at the Oscars? In front of millions of people. On what was supposed to be Will Smith's big night. I don't know. Chris Rock is a grown man too, and a professional joke teller. Will Smith showed some level of restraint by just slapping him.
I'm no tough guy. I'm not trying to beat anyone up. But if I said "haha nice sick wife you got there" to a guy and he lit me up I wouldn't be like "hey man whats your deal"?

It bums me out that there was a lot of historic events that happened tonight for women, queer people, and deaf people, and ultimately we're all talking about two cishet bros in a beef.

Yeah. Having a conversation now with my one other friend who still cares about the Oscars. Feel really bad for Questlove.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?

Dammit. Jet lag set in and I fell asleep during the program and missed all of this! How disappointing.
I did somehow incorporate part of the CODA acceptance speech into a dream, however. I was carrying on and in love with a French director whose film won. He had invited me to the ceremony, and I was elated for him, clapping and crying. But during his acceptance speech he thanked his partner, Leon, and their two children, but made no mention of me. I was devastated and upset. He left the award on the podium when he walked off and I walked up there and shoved it down my pants and stole it.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

Considering where the awards show went, that would've been on-brand by the end. So sorry to hear he'll never leave Leon for you!
