Will Smith and Chris Rock continue to dominate the headlines after Smith slapped Rock at the Oscars. 

The public is divided, some are backing Smith and others are trashing him for his actions during Sunday's award show. 

One person who is not backing Smith and was very vocal about it is actor and comedian Jim Carrey.

In a recent interview, Carrey said that he was sickened by the standing ovation that Smith got post-slap and called out Hollywood for lacking spine.

He said if it was him, he would be suing Smith for $200 million by the next morning.

"I'd have announced this morning that I was suing Will for $200 million. That video is gonna be there forever. It's gonna be ubiquitous. You know, that insult is gonna last a very long time. If you want to yell from the audience and show disapproval or say something on Twitter [that’s fine]. You do not have the right to smack somebody in the face because they said words."

Carrey went on to say...

"I wish him the best. I have nothing against Will Smith. He’s done great things, but that was not a good moment. It cast a shadow over everyone’s shining moment last night…It was a selfish moment."

Jim Carrey says "I was sickened" by the standing ovation for Will Smith's best actor win: "Hollywood is just spineless en masse...I’d have announced this morning that I was suing Will for $200 million because that video is going to be there forever." https://t.co/by8wCCEuuu
