At the 94th Academy Awards, Will Smith created a storm by slapping presenter Chris Rock after he made a joke about Will's wife, actress Jada Pinkett Smith.

The incident started when Rock came on stage to announce the winners for best documentary feature award and made the tasteless joke about Pinkett-Smith. "That was one of the greatest nights in the history of television," said a shocked Chris Rock when Smith went up to the stage and slapped the comedian right across his face.
However, Will Smith issued an apology to the comedian, to the academy the nominees and everybody sitting in Dolby Theatre for his actions. He said he was 'out of line' and that his actions are "not indicative of the man I want to be."
