Vivica A. Fox had some harsh words to say about Jada Pinkett Smith’s comments on the now-infamous Oscars slap.<\/p>\n

On Thursday’s episode of \u201cThe Wendy Williams Show,\u201d guest co-hosts Fox and Carson Kressley discussed Pinkett Smith’s first public comments on the March 27 moment when her husband Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Academy Awards.<\/p>\n

“What did you think about that?” Kressley, 52, asked his co-host him, who took a brief moment to respond.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is going to be difficult for me. These are my peers. I’ve done a movie with both of them, ‘Set It Off’ with Jada and ‘Independence Day’ with Will Smith, which absolutely changed my life, \u201dthe 57-year-old actress said.<\/p>\n

“When I saw this video last night, it made me cry, I’ll be very honest with you guys,” Fox said, referring to comments made by Pinkett Smitt Wednesday on her Facebook Watch show “Red Table Talk.”<\/p>\n

\u201cI really felt to be a partner to Will Smith, whose career basically took a crumble that night,\u201d Fox continued. \u201cWe were all rooting for Will Smith that night – Oscar night – we wanted him to win. Will Smith that night as far as I was concerned was going to be crowned this generation’s Sidney Poitier, which is a huge honor. “<\/p>\n

Smith took home a best actor award for his performance in \u201cKing Richard\u201d shortly after the slap, but it was largely overshadowed by the shocking incident earlier. <\/p>\n

Fox went on to say that there was \u201cno accountability\u201d on the part of Pinkett Smith in her Wednesday comments. <\/p>\n

“Will Smith was defending her honor, that’s the reason he walked on stage and slapped because he felt like his wife had been offended so for me to see no accountability as a partner,” Fox said. \u201cAlso, let’s not forget, Chris Rock was assaulted. We cannot forget that, for basically telling a joke that I really felt wasn’t that bad. “<\/p>\n

She also noted that the ceremony was \u201cexecutive-produced by Will Packer, an African-American man. This night was a night of African American and diversity for Brown and Black people [which] now will forever be scarred. “<\/p>\n

The \u201cSet it Off\u201d star concluded by saying that she hoped that the couple will accept more responsibility for what happened.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have love for the Smiths. I know their children. I’ve watched them grow up, \u201dFox said. “I just wish we could have just a little more accountability and for it to not seem so self-righteous on Jada’s part and that’s my feelings.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
