Celebrity Will Smith apologized during his acceptance speech after an angry outburst at the 94th Academy Awards. Will Smith stood up from his seat near the stage Sunday night and walked to Chris Rock and slapped him. After sitting back down Smith shouted at the Rock to “keep my wife’s name out of your (f…) mouth.”
In the past his wife Pinkett-Smith’s shaved her head due in part to her ongoing struggle with Alopecia – a condition that causes hair loss – which she has spoken about publicly in the past.
