Actor Will Smith has reportedly resigned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences after the group that runs the Oscars said it had begun a disciplinary hearing against him for slapping presenter Chris Rock at the ceremony.
Smith said he had responded to the academy regarding its upcoming hearing and would “fully accept any and all consequences from my conduct”, according to a statement released on Friday by his publicists.
Smith walked up on stage and slapped Rock after the comedian made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair. Pinkett Smith, who is married to Smith, has alopecia, which causes hair loss and has led her to regularly buzz her hair.
The slap was “shocking, painful, and inexcusable,” said Smith, who won the best actor award that evening for his performance in King Richard.
“The list of those I have hurt is long and includes Chris, his family, many of my dear friends and loved ones, all those in attendance, and global audiences at home,” he added. – Bloomberg
