For some reason, we aren’t surprised by this, but Vivica A. Fox is going on record sharing that she has not spoken to her friend Jada Pinkett Smith after calling her out on Oscar’s slap thing.
If you recall, she appeared on the Wendy Williams show and cried about what she called a ‘self-righteous’ move on Jada’s part when the actress gave her remarks on the Red Table Talk about the Oscar’s slap.
specifically, she said:
“I just wish we could have just a little more accountability and for it to not seem so self-righteous on Jada’s part, and that’s my feelings.”
According to People at the premiere of The Great Wolf Pack: A Call to Adventure at Great Wolf Lodge on Tuesday in Garden Grove, Calif., Fox, 58, told PEOPLE she hasn’t spoken to Jada, 50, since speaking out.
“I think they’re just really going through a season of healing right now,” she says. “Listen, I love Will Smith. He’s one of my favorite people on the planet. We all make mistakes. If there’s one person that deserves a second chance, it is him. I think he’s taken full accountability for his actions and he apologized.”
Fox adds, “I just hope that we can all move forward from the incident and learned that it must never happen again, especially on that magnitude of a stage.”
Will already made it clear that Jada had nothing to do with his decisions that night.
“I made a choice on my own from my own experiences, from my history with Chris. Jada had nothing to do with it,” he said in the video. “I’m sorry, babe. I want to say sorry to my kids and my family for the heat that I’ve brought on all of us.”
Fox said in June that Jada’s comments were “difficult” for her to hear. She added that she has “love for the Smiths; I know their children, I’ve watched them grow up.”
“Will Smith was defending her honor, that’s the reason he walked on stage and slapped because he felt like his wife had been offended, so for me to see no accountability as a partner,” she said. “Also, let’s not forget, Chris Rock was assaulted. We cannot forget that for basically telling a joke that I really felt wasn’t that bad.”
