Will Smith Was Asked To Leave After Oscars Slap But He Refused, Academy Says

<p>The newest chapter of the Will Smith/Chris Rock drama at the Oscars has unfolded. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said that Smith was asked to leave the venue after he struck Rock on stage, but the Independence Day star refused, according to the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/oscars-will-smith-entertainment-arts-and-entertainment-51713817b2f8aaf9c2ea5f06bcf234c1">Associated Press</a>. <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2022/03/31/academy-lied-asking-will-smith-to-leave-oscars-slap-chris-rock/">TMZ's sources</a>, meanwhile, say this is not the case and that Smith was told by a producer that he could stay. Some said Smith could stay and others wanted him gone, according to the report.</p><p>"There were various discussions during several commercial breaks, but they never reached a consensus," TMZ reported.</p><p>Smith, who has publicly apologized to Rock and the Academy, is facing potential disciplinary action. The Academy's board met this week to begin discussions about punishing Smith for violating its conduct standards. Smith could be suspended or expelled from the Academy, or face other sanctions, the group said. Harvey Weinstein, Roman Polanski, and Billy Cosby are among the very small group of people to have been expelled from the Academy.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/will-smith-was-asked-to-leave-after-oscars-slap-but-he-refused-academy-says/1100-6502055/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>
