Former One Direction member Liam Payne has simultaneously confused and amused fans in an interview on the red carpet of the 94th Annual Academy Awards. During the interview, which has been shown on television and has since gone viral on social media, Liam expresses his views on the slap Will Smith delivered to host Chris Rock.
Whilst roasting various members of the star-studded audience, Chris made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith's buzzcut. Addressing Jada, who has alopecia, in front of the crowd, Chris quipped: "Jada, can't wait for GI Jane 2."
Although he laughed at the joke initially, Will then stormed on stage to slap Chris across the face infront of an open-mouthed audience. When he returned to his seat, Will shouted: "Keep my wife's name out of your f***ing mouth."
