Will Smith apologises to Chris Rock for 'unacceptable' Oscars night slap, rules out Jada Pinkett Smith's role

A contrite Will Smith has opened up about the controversy surrounding his assault on Chris Rock at this year's Academy Awards, offering his most unvarnished thoughts about an altercation that has marred his public image, despite being named Best Actor, reports 'Variety'. In an emotional YouTube post, according to 'Variety', Smith addressed why he did not apologise to Rock when he accepted the Best Actor prize for his work in 'King Richard' shortly after he charged the stage and slapped the comic for making a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith's short haircut.
