Will Smith and Trevor Noah&#039;s Interview Gets Split Reactions from Hollywood: &#039;Better&#039; Apology

Hollywood Had To Split Again On Another Will Smith Apology In The Trevor Noah Interview

There have been major landmark incidents that have made 2022 quite eventful. The
spectrum also includes some infamous scenarios like the Oscar Slapgate that has
made a never-ending impact on the audience forever. It is seemingly
unforgettable how the media outraged the Hollywood A-lister, Will Smith, for
what he did on stage with the comedian, Chris Rock. Therefore it comes as no
surprise that public remarks on the same keep making their way back to the
media.

Having said that, an interview with the Emancipation star and the world-renowned
The Daily Show host, Trevor Noah has been once again surfacing the headlines.
Following his public apology that Will Smith posted through his social media
handles, the star admitted his fault once again before the host. But it seems
like the public, especially the media houses, still have some scores to settle
with him. 


SOURCES WEIGH ON THE PUBLIC APOLOGY TOUR OF WILL SMITH 

As reported by People
[https://people.com/movies/will-smith-trevor-noah-interview-split-reactions-from-hollywood/]
magazine, the industry shared mixed reactions about the exchanges between Smith
and Trevor Noah in the interview. For instance, a veteran studio publicist was
reportedly disappointed in the star for two things; Will did not address the
Oscar Slapgate nor did he say anything about his then-much anticipated work,
Emancipation. The source further added that “He is gutted”. Although it further
demanded just a story, the source came to a grey ground stating, “the Cancel
culture is getting bandanas”. 



Smith should not be judged on the Oscar incident for the rest of his life, the
source said before concluding. Another admitted that “his public apology tours”
is better than his official social media apology to Chris Rock. One more
legitimate PR executive stood his ground saying, “Audiences love him. The
Industry loves him“. Meanwhile, another put in an elaborate note saying, as
horrible as the incident was, people would have actually loved to move on.

However, given that Will Smith is one of the most recognizable and beloved
characters in Hollywood, the fact is ever near to be bygone. Also giving an edge
to Chris Rock’s side, the source praised him for handling the situation as he
did. The outlet believes that had he reacted in another way, “which he had every
right to,” we all would have been in a different state of mind.
