The 2022 Oscars saw celebrities turn out in style for an emotional and dramatic evening in Hollywood.This year’s ceremony saw the jaw-dropping moment when Will Smith stormed on stage to slap Chris Rock after he made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett-Smith, as well as numerous celebrities paying tribute to the war in Ukraine through their fashion and speeches. Amid the drama, it was (almost) easy to forget the reason why A-listers had assembled at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles - to honour the finest movies from around the world.
Zack Sharf The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has issued a statement on the Will Smith-Chris Rock slap that shocked the 94th Academy Awards. Smith took to the stage during the 2022 Oscars and slapped Rock after the comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith while presenting the documentary feature category.The Academy said in a statement: “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.”While presenting best documentary feature, Rock joked about Jada Pinkett Smith starring in “G.I. Jane 2” because of her bald head.

However, while the critically acclaimed film — which memorably unleashed the power of the dong with on-screen full-frontal male nudity — did score a slew of awards before the Oscars, it was not nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award for best ensemble, which is typically a reliable predictor of a Best Picture win.“Dog” did win best picture in the drama category at the controversy-ridden Golden Globes, which did not air after embarrassing public backlash, alongside “West Side Story,” which was top dog in the musical category.While given seven nods, Steven Spielberg’s updated “West Side Story” hardly shared the same success as the 1961 original, which took home more Oscars than any other musical has.
