The blow that he gave Will Smith a Chris Rock at the last ceremony Oscar generated the rejection and support of both members of the show business and the public. One who spoke loudly on the subject was the actor Jim Carreywho pointed out in an interview with journalist Gayle King of CBS that he found it “disgusting” to see the audience applaud and cheer the actor following what he did.
“It disgusts me, and the ovation they gave him disgusted me. In Hollywood they are cowards. It felt like an indication that we’re not the cool people’s club anymore,” Carrey said. “If it had been me, I would have announced this morning that I was going to sue Will for $200 million, because that video is going to be there forever, it’s going to be history. That insult is going to last a long time,” added the actor.
Carrey’s past
as it happened with Will Smith a few days ago, the Internet rubbed his past to Jim Carrey. In the case of the last winner of the Oscara 1991 video reminded the actor that just like Chris Rock, he also made fun of a person’s baldness live, the musician of the program to which he was invited.
With Jim Carrey something similar has happened. A video reminds us that the protagonist of “The Truman Show” kissed Alicia Silverstone forcibly during the MTV Movie Awards de 1997. In the aforementioned clip we see the actress, then 21 years old, mention Carrey as Best Actor for his role as “Cable Guy”. The actor gets up from her seat and goes to the actress and to her surprise, he grabs her head and kisses her mouth for several seconds. After this, the actor gives his speech as if nothing had happened.
The video has sparked anger and outrage on social media. These are some of the reactions.
