Can we demand a public apology from Will Smith?

As a fan of both Chris Rock and Will Smith, I think Will Smith was so childish. Chris Rock’s jokes were very funny and he didn’t deserve to be smacked in the face for telling a joke. Maybe Will was drunk or high or something. If he does not apologize, then he needs to grow up because he is setting the wrong example. Just like Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift in 2009, Will Smith is totally out of line for doing that. Interrupting a comedian/presenter at an award show doesn’t make you look good.

Looked at as a whole I think the whole thing was handled. Rock overspoke on a sensitive subject about someone in the room in front of her husband. He ended up with his face slapped. The womans honour was defended by her man. And he apologised for his conduct to the crowd. Not to the big mouth. As a bonus Rock gets free publicity for the tour he is about to do, to pay off a messy divorce. I dont see a problem.
Of course, Smith will catch some comment at the next Oscars from the hosts. But they will be careful.😷
