The Oscars audience's boos were dubbed with laughs when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock over the weekend.
It has become a huge talking point from the ceremony, after Will walked onto stage and hit fellow comedian Chris after his GI Jane 2 joke about Will's wife Jada Pinkett Smith, who has alopecia.
Lorraine's Ross King had been speaking to an Academy member who was actually in the room when it happened, and they have made a string of claims, including that the laughter was dubbed and there were lots of groans and boos instead.
He also claimed the audience felt 'unsafe' after what had happened onstage.
"I've actually just come from dinner with one of the members of the Academy who was in the room and it's very interesting to hear their side of things of what happened inside the room," Ross said as he discussed the actual reaction in the room.
"So obviously, there we were at the Oscars - everything going pretty well. Chris Rock made a gag, it was a bit of a lame gag. He didn't know Jada Pinkett Smith was suffering from alopecia and he made this lame joke."
He then revealed the laughs that people heard on TV were actually dubbed.
"Now when he made that joke, even though on TV when we heard it, we heard laughs - I was told there wasn't many laughs in the room and it was a stuck on laugh track - there were a lot of groans," he said, "We saw the picture where Will laughed initially then Jada rolled her eyes and then the crowd reaction - they said - almost felt that it made him move to do something."
Speaking about the audience feeling unsafe, he added: "The slap was heard all around the room, it was that loud.
"And people were saying they actually felt unsafe and then when Will started screaming the obscenities - which were muted on streams - the atmosphere in the room went absolutely cold."
Ross also claimed that when Will's nomination was read out and he stepped onto the stage to collect his Oscar for Best Actor for his role in King Richard, there were a lot of boos from the gathered audience.
Will has since apologised for what happened, saying: "I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be.
"There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness."
