Famous MC James Corden changed the name of the song "We Dont Talk About Bruno" to "We Dont Talk About Jada" and had words mocking the wife of actor Will Smith on television.
In The Late Late Show with James Corden aired on April 1, James Corden and the guests discussed the 94th Academy Awards ceremony. While everyone focused on the moment CODA won the Best Picture category, male MC just wanted to mention Jada Pinkett Smith's name.
"Or we can discuss what people are thinking," one guy said. Beside, Corden interrupted: "No, I saw what happened. Let's talk about something else (Will Smith slaps Chris Rock for joking about Jada's hair loss)."
The guests repeatedly refused to mention the sensitive scandal, but James Corden seemed to ignore it. He even changed the lyrics and title of the song We Dont Talk About Bruno in Encanto - the work that won the Best Animated Feature Oscar 2022 - to We Dont Talk About Jada, and mocked his wife Smith.

According to Fox News, the audience reacted negatively to this joke that was considered less charming. One angry Twitter account: "I vote for James Corden to be the next to be punched at the Oscars." Another commented: "I saw the video at the Oscars, the story is not funny for you to make jokes like that."
Before that, the male MC scandal also spoke about Will Smith's slap. He said: "I'll say this, we can't joke with Will Smith. Chris Rock took a punch."
James Corden was born in 1978, is an English actor, presenter and singer. He is the MC of The Late Late Show with James Corden, a late-night CBS talk show.
According to Fox News, Corden is constantly criticized for belittling other cultures, making racist statements, especially targeting Asians.
The scandal of disparaging duck eggs and chicken feet is disgusting since June 2021. Corden continues to make a statement that disrespects BTS when calling the 7-member b.oy group's participation in the United Nations General Assembly. is "the appearance of unusual guests".
Back to the Will Smith case, many people are interested in what the actor gained and lost after slapping Chris Rock.
First, it can be seen that the slap in the face of comedian Chris Rock that shocked the entertainment world at the Oscars ceremony clearly made him "more famous". The first thing is that Will Smith satisfies his own psychology, making a man willing to defend his loved ones, especially his wife when being ridiculed about his illness. However, Smith's loss through this is not small.
Lost more or less the image that was created
What made Will Smith decide to storm the stage and a.ssault comedian Chris Rock in the middle of Hollywood's most important night? Although one day Smith apologized to Chris Rock, the Academy and the audience, his actions certainly tarnished his carefully crafted image and greatly influenced his acting career. It is sure to become one of the "proudest" moments of Smith's professional life before w.inning the Best Actor Oscar for King Richard.
It is difficult to say how much Smith will lose from this scandal. As a star, Will Smith recently participated in a number of famous film projects such as Emancipation - a historical horror film about a runaway slave bought by Apple TV for $ 120 million or S.uicide Squad, Bad Boys for Life, Aladdin... and is scheduled to appear in Fast and Loose, the action thriller directed by David Leitch. Smith was also offered the role of Netflix's The Council (a biopic about drug lord Nicky Barnes) but withdrew from the project for various reasons.
Although the slap will almost certainly be a h.ot topic of discussion as Will Smith is moving forward with multiple film projects, industry insiders don't believe the incident will completely ruin Smith's career provided he prays. notice and recognize the mistake, and take the necessary measures to compensate for the damage. "I don't see the prospect of filmmakers turning their backs on Will Smith, but he may have drifted away from some of his fans," said one top film executive, who declined to be named.
Will Smith is more than just a movie star. Through Westbrook, the media company he founded with his wife - Jada Pinkett Smith - the actor has produced hit shows like Cobra Kai, Bel-Air. Last fall, he received a $60 million investment from Candle, a media venture run by two former Walt Disney executives, Tom Staggs and Kevin Mayer. That means if Will Smith's image is seriously damaged, it will more or less affect the company's revenue.
Some studio executives expect Will Smith to do an exclusive interview with a figure of Oprah Winfrey's caliber to restore public credibility after the slap.
