it happened after mr rock made a joke about will smith's wife, jada pinkett smith.incident, mr smith was given the best actor award. he has since apologised for his actions and has already resigned from the academy. entertainmentjournalist perez hilton gave me his reaction to the ban. well, i think that the academy and board of governors who decided to ban will smith for a decade did what little they could do. you know, you mentioned just a moment ago that will had previously resigned from the academy. there is precedent, however, to let people that have done awful things keep their 0scars — for example, harvey weinstein, who is currently in prison, still has his 0scars, roman polanski and others — so, they were not going to take away the academy awards that he had just won for best actor but this is, more than anything, symbolic and i think quite powerfully they acknowledged — the academy themselves — their own wrongdoing in this handling the situation, unprecedented as it was, when it occurred live at the academy awards. as you mentioned, there was criticism of th
