Following his shocking actions at the Oscars, Will Smith has resigned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
The Men in Black actor entered the stage and slapped comedian Chris Rock after he told a joke about Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. Rock referred to looking forward to seeing her star in the next GI Jane film, a joke about her alopecia which can cause hair loss. In a statement, Smith said his actions were "inexcusable" and he would "accept any further consequences".
The star is still set to face a disciplinary hearing over the incident. He has also been widely condemned by fellow actors and from people around the world. You can get more showbiz news and other story updates by subscribing to our newsletters here.
