right. when he said my wife didn't have anything to do with this I LAUGHED out loud. like really, bro? She's the whole reason why he felt the need to answer all the critics from the past two years in one slap on Chris. She drug him and their marriage through the mud for views and dollars. And we saw a man we all thought had life figured out crumble before our eyes in the public view while his wife just looked at him like a dog. Unreal.

There’s no pretending in acting. Everything is as if it’s truly happening…just saying that here so no one accuses of him of acting during his apology.

Yuuuup!

Here, Will, lemme help you out: I won't ask Chris' forgiveness, because I don't deserve it. Maybe one day when I've forgiven myself I will ask it. I just want to say that I'm sorry. Not as an apology, but as me regretting my actions. There does come a time in a man's life when he must protect the ones he loves, but not from a comedian doing his trade. For those saying I've humiliated Chris I want to say: no, he took it like a champ and came up on top. In that situation he was the hero and I was the villain. I did not humiliate him, but I did manage to humiliate myself. I worked so hard, put so much effort into my acting for years and I feel like it's all been undone by 20 seconds of rage. All that intellect I had to put into my acting methods and I was overcome by such a base instinct as to hurt another human being by following a misguided sense of righteousness. This is not the example I want to show my kids. For all the people out there on my side over this situation, I like to think that in the past I have shown examples of being a role model, but this was not one of them. Follow me for whatever else, but not for this. Not for my lowest point. Thank you for listening. That ought to have done it, Will. But to say stuff like this you have to genuinely be sorry.

He can't control his wife and apparently his own actions.

This feels like more of asking for forgiveness to himself than an apology to Chris. "There is no part of me that thinks that is a way to behave" is just not a correct way to contextualize your actions. You, in fact, DID act that way and that is just a way of repressing your anger until it resurfaces again. Will is only saying that line because he felt guilt from the backlash he received after the fact, nothing more and nothing less. Until he stops apologizing to Jada in the same breath and understand where that's where his anger stems from, it will all be hallow words and lip service.

Great point, didn’t think of that.

Not the “recording before the interview starts” to seem like this video was spontaneous and down to earth 😭😭

It's cool to see he's taking more daring roles and not always playing the good guy.

One of the reasons I don’t believe this apology is that Will’s son reacted immediately on social media, in real time, with something to the effect that - This is how we Smiths get it done. If that’s what his son thought/thinks, then that was probably the ethos in the home. So - the “There is no part of me…” part of apology rings hollow. If everyone had back slapped Will and thumbs upped him after the slap about the slap (not the Oscar) he’d be going along his merry way now. This is a big fat “I’m sorry ‘cause I got caught” moment.

Sad, that he still hasn't figured it out. This video is not a sincere apology. It's putting the ball in Chris' court, so he (Will) can look like the victim in a horrible situation that he created all on his own. Disrespected? It was a joke, and a pretty mild one at that!

This looks very staged and insincere imo. You can even tell by the way Will is reading off the questions that this is something his team pressed for him to do to save his public perception. If he was truly remorseful for what he did he would have apologized to Chris after accepting his Oscar. Since he didn’t do that, he should have at least had a serious interview VERY SOON after the incident with some journalist where he’d be asked challenging questions about it. He could have used that hypothetical moment to apologize. Instead, he had his publicist write an apology for him to post on Instagram, and then waited a few months to release a staged “apology” video like this. That Oscar slap really exposed a lot of Will Smith’s true colors he was able to hide from the public eye for so many years.

according to body language people, him smiling and making jokes in serious moments is just something he does. he jokes away the pain.

They should`ve booed him as they announced his win. They actually should not have even given him the award at all!

This is months later, but unpopular take; Will was blinded by anger, as he said in the beginning it was all fuzzy. I do believe he shouldn't have handled that in THAT moment in that way, but he was blinded by the rage. I've seen people get blinded by rage before, and its scary. They don't even realize the aftereffects at that moment, they just feel like they need to do something. (But I will say this apology seems kind of scripted tho)
