The list of people whom I have caused pain is very long. Chris’s name is also included in this list. I have betrayed the trust of the Academy. The other winners did not get a chance to celebrate because of me in the ceremony.

Will shared the post, writing, “Violence is toxic and destructive in all its forms. My behavior at last night’s Academy Awards deserves no apology. Pranking me is part of the job, but about Jada’s medical condition.” I couldn’t bear the joke and I reacted emotionally. I want to apologize publicly to you, Chris. I went overboard and I was wrong.”
