LOS ANGELES (KNX) – A TikTok is going viral after it shows a new angle of Will Smith’s now infamous Oscar slap.
The video was shared by comedian and actor Michael Rappaport on his Instagram page; however, the video does not belong to him. The video was posted by Michael Dugga, according to the tag at the end of the TikTok.
The video begins as Smith walks off the stage moments after slapping comedian Chris Rock. The angle shows the back of Jada and Will’s head. Laughter is heard from behind whoever is filming.
After Chris says, “Will Smith slapped the s**t out of me,” Jada is seen leaning over in her seat a bit and it appears to look like she is laughing.
Jada’s reaction was not shown on the live broadcast.
Following the infamous “slap heard around the world,” the Los Angeles Police Department said Rock declined to press charges against Smith.
Smith issued an apology on Instagram Monday and on Wednesday, the Academy claimed that Smith was asked to leave the event and that he refused.
The Academy said it's considering looking into disciplinary actions for Smith.
