Lupita Nyong Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

Dancing it out. Despite a dramatic Oscars night and his onstage fight with Chris Rock, Will Smith was solely focused on celebrating his best actor win after the ceremony.

“We all were Lupita [Nyong’o] watching the Will Smith and Chris Rock mess,” tweeted one fan during the 94th Academy Awards on Sunday (Mar. 27). Indeed, Lupita, 39, seemed to sum up the whole mood of the night after Will, 53, got out of his seat to slap Chris, 57, for making an off-handed joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith. When Will returned to his seat and loudly told Chris to “keep my wife’s name out of your f-cking mouth,” Lupita’s shocked reaction (and the realization that this was not a bit) became one of the viral memes of the night.

Lupita Nyong’o glittered in a gild gold sequin Prada dress with silver floral clusters and a metallic fringing touch. Despite getting caught up in the most dramatic episode of the evening, Jada Pinkett Smith turned heads in an emerald green satin couture look from Jean Paul Gaultier’s recent show, which was guest-designed by Diesel’s It-creative director Glenn Martens. Its tight, ruched zip bodice exploded into drop waist and frothing huge train, successfully bagging her the most fashion forward look of the night.

After an eventful night, Will Smith let loose and had fun.

“slap heard around the world” at Sunday’s Oscars ceremony involving Will Smith and Chris Rock on stage at the Dolby Theater has become meme-ified in a matter of mere hours.The 94th Academy Awards had a particularly viral moment where Smith — who won later that evening the Oscar for Best Actor — went up on stage and smacked the soul out of Rock after the latter made an ill-advised hair joke about the winner’s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith.Just as Rock’s joke was being carried out to a shocked audience, Smith shouted at the presenter, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f–king mouth!”But alas, despite that act of savagery being played out for millions of viewers to watch on Sunday evening, the Twitter world had its fill of memes about the trending moment.Here are the best tweets and memes about the smackdown.A shot of Oscar nominee Nicole Kidman made headlines, showing her shocked face during a separate segment on the show. While the Aussie actress wasn’t exactly showing her “surprised Pikachu face” to Smith and Rock’s altercation during the live telecast, Twitter decided to use the photo to describe the fight despite her expression happening well before the showdown.Others were amused by the expression Lupita Nyong’o, who was sitting behind Smith, made during the fracas.“We are all Lupita,” one quipped.We are all Lupita.

WATCH: Will Smith appears to punch Chris Rock at the OscarsDuring the 2022 Oscars, Will Smith walked up on stage and hit Chris Rock across the face before returning to his seat and yelling: "leave my wife's name out your f---ing mouth."In the American broadcast the language was muted just in time, based on footage shared by US publications such as Variety, but not here in Australia.The on-stage altercation came while Chris was presenting an award and made a joke at the expense of Will's wife Jada Pinkett Smith. Chris made a joke about Jada appearing in a GI Jane sequel.The joke in question referred to the 1997 Demi Moore movie GI Jane, where the actress shaved her head.
