Chris Rock ‘turns down’ Oscar hosting. VBS Bank comes for Zuma. Mass shooter’s terrifying plans. Gorbachev dead. Emily and Brad?
Unlike the Golden Globes, where hosts like Ricky Gervais are given free rein, there are some jokes that Oscars hosts are not allowed to make.
The writers and cast of ‘Saturday Night Live’ had plenty of time to digest and then react to The Slap.

In the apology, Smith said his behaviour was “unacceptable and inexcusable” and stated that “there is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”
To social media, we go, and Jaden Smith may be in the minority as Will Smith’s actions are criticised by fellow celebs.
