“slap heard around the world” at Sunday’s Oscars ceremony involving Will Smith and Chris Rock on stage at the Dolby Theater has become meme-ified in a matter of mere hours.The 94th Academy Awards had a particularly viral moment where Smith — who won later that evening the Oscar for Best Actor — went up on stage and smacked the soul out of Rock after the latter made an ill-advised hair joke about the winner’s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith.Just as Rock’s joke was being carried out to a shocked audience, Smith shouted at the presenter, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f–king mouth!”But alas, despite that act of savagery being played out for millions of viewers to watch on Sunday evening, the Twitter world had its fill of memes about the trending moment.Here are the best tweets and memes about the smackdown.A shot of Oscar nominee Nicole Kidman made headlines, showing her shocked face during a separate segment on the show. While the Aussie actress wasn’t exactly showing her “surprised Pikachu face” to Smith and Rock’s altercation during the live telecast, Twitter decided to use the photo to describe the fight despite her expression happening well before the showdown.Others were amused by the expression Lupita Nyong’o, who was sitting behind Smith, made during the fracas.“We are all Lupita,” one quipped.We are all Lupita.

Insane, violent Will Smith was best part of otherwise boring Oscars

what won Best Picture?! (It was “CODA.”) There was just one scene-stealing moment at the otherwise snoozy Oscars on Sunday night. It was the best minute of TV in many years. “Game of Thrones”‘ “Red Wedding,” eat your heart out.Two and half hours in, a crazed Will Smith stormed the stage after presenter Chris Rock, who should’ve hosted, mockingly said to Smith’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith, “Jada, I love you! ‘GI Jane 2′ — can’t wait to see it!” An innocent little joke.

‘CODA’ wins Oscars 2022 best picture

win at the 2022 Oscars for Best Picture.The audience cheered loudly for the Apple film, but also signed applause to honor the movie.Lady Gaga and Liza Minnelli presented the award to Heder at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, where Hollywood’s elite dressed up to celebrate the joy of film at the ceremony, led by Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall.Star Troy Kotsur won best supporting actor earlier in the night, making history.“CODA” received three nominations in total, but managed to edge out “Belfast,” “Don’t Look Up,” “Drive My Car,” “Dune,” “King Richard,” “Licorice Pizza,” “Nightmare Alley,” “The Power of the Dog” and “West Side Story” for Oscar glory.Jane Campion’s “Dog” was largely predicted to be the favorite of the night, putting an end to Netflix’s losing streak at the Academy Awards — and perhaps making the film’s biggest, vocal detractor, Sam Elliott, eat his words. However, while the critically acclaimed film — which memorably unleashed the power of the dong with on-screen full-frontal male nudity — did score a slew of awards before the Oscars, it was not nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award for best ensemble, which is typically a reliable predictor of a Best Picture win.“Dog” did win best picture in the drama category at the controversy-ridden Golden Globes, which did not air after embarrassing public backlash, alongside “West Side Story,” which was top dog in the musical category.While given seven nods, Steven Spielberg’s updated “West Side Story” hardly shared the same success as the 1961 original, which took home more Oscars than any other musical has.
