Clearly not a put-on and behaviour not becoming of a normal person.

 

Will Smith has resigned from The Academy.

He appears to have seen how serious his actions were, not just for the victim but for all the role models watching.

It will be interesting.

 

Jada remains a member of the Academy.

 

He may become her handbag.

The Academy plans to forge ahead and conduct a formal investigation and disciplinary process on April 18, at which time the organization could impose further sanctions or punishment in accordance with its bylaws. In the meantime, hereโ€™s what Smithโ€™s resignation means for the actorโ€™s Oscars future:

 

  • Yes, he still gets to keep his Best Actor Oscar for โ€œKing Richardโ€
  • Yes, he can still get invited to future Academy Awards ceremonies
  • Yes, he can still be nominated for future consideration
  • No, he is no longer a voting member of the Academy

Apparently that just means he canโ€™t vote anymore, but he can still be nominated and receive awards ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Soโ€ฆ. Pointless really.  Just for show! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hmmmโ€ฆ.. I have to say that I disagree with the take in this video.

 

So, what I hear isโ€ฆ.. that Jada is a strong willed independent woman, which in turn is an attack on Willโ€™s masculinity, therefore he โ€˜acted outโ€™ what he thought was the right thing to do once he realised his wife was โ€˜not happyโ€™ with Chris Rocks โ€˜jokeโ€™? 
And that somehow equates to him being โ€˜under the thumbโ€™ or โ€˜controlledโ€™ so to speak? ๐Ÿค”

 

What was it called when women around the world, and still are, oppressed by male dominance at home and in the workplace? But heaven forbid that a woman should rise above that, and become strong within herself and in her life! 

I donโ€™t agree with extra marital affairs, but it doesnโ€™t matter what I thinkโ€ฆ.. itโ€™s not my marriage.  They obviously sorted things out, so is it fair to use that as an excuse?  It probably still weighs heavy in Wills mind, but he had options. 

With regards of the Tupac letter, this is actually the first time Iโ€™ve even heard of itโ€ฆ.. soโ€ฆ. No comment.
