The Oscars 2022 will always be remembered for the altercation that took place between Chris Rock and Will Smith. Within a span of 30 minutes, the environment at the arena changed from visible unsettledness to wholesome appreciation for Will Smith.

The incident took place as the host Chris Rock was constantly making fun of Will’s wife Jada’s hair, which is due to a medical condition called Alopecia.

Chris maintained his calm and controlled the situation with jokes while Will Smith kept swearing at him at the top of his lungs.

Within a span of 30 minutes, Will Smith won the Best Actor award, which would be his first Academy Award. While receiving his award, he addressed this issue with tears in his eyes.
