Jim Carrey Says He Would Have Sued Will Smith For $200 M Over Oscars Slap!
Well it appears that Jim Carrey is letting everyone know what he would do if he’s ever hit by someone like Will Smith for poking fun at someone. The only thing is that Jim Carrey is a real comedian, he’s funny and doesn’t have to make fun of someone to get a laugh.
It was reported that Chris Rock went off script making fun of Jada Pinkett-Smith. He never said that joke in rehearsals so he took the producers of the show by surprise. This is not the first time Rock has made fun of Jada for a laugh, he has a history of attack Will Smith’s wife, so there is history there…
CelebnMusic247.com reports that legendary comedian Jim Carrey, 60 isn’t too fond of Will Smith’s, 53, behavior Sunday night at the Oscars and is now speaking out. During a recent interview with Gayle King.
Carrey expressed his disdain for the now-viral moment:
I was sickened. I was sickened by the standing ovation. I felt like Hollywood is just spineless en masse. And it really felt like this is a really clear indication that we’re not the cool club anymore.
Carrey continued to explain how he would have handled it:
I’d have announced this morning that I was suing Will for $200 million. Because that video’s gonna be there forever. It’s gonna be ubiquitous. That insult is gonna last a very long time.
Jim Carrey also said he thinks Will Smith could have found other ways to show disapproval for the comedic jab against his wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith without putting his hands on Chris Rock.
If you wanna yell from the audience and disapprove … or say something on Twitter or whatever [, go ahead]. You do not have the right to walk up on stage and smack somebody in the face ’cause they said words.
