Will Smith issued an apology to Chris Rock in the form of a video on July 29 for the notorious Oscars slap that occurred earlier this year. The former had been absent from the public eye for a few months, but they have recently made their reappearance. Since the video was uploaded to YouTube yesterday, numerous internet users have left positive comments for the user, praising him for the sincerity of his apologies.
Some Erobb221 followers have also commented CLM below the video in an attempt to jokingly show their support for the actor who plays King Richard. A person who is considered to be weak is referred to as a CLM.
Will Smith disclosed in his video, which at the time this story was written had received over 1.7 million views on YouTube, that Chris Rock had rejected to speak to him after he had reached out to him. He said:
The actor, who is 53 years old, also expressed his regret to Chris Rock’s mother and brother, saying the following:
The actor also provided an explanation as to why he did not apologise to Chris Rock during his acceptance speech for winning the award for best actor, admitting that he was “fogged out by that point.” The actor was speaking in his capacity as the winner of the award for best actor.
Smith went on to apologise to his family for making a spectacle, as well as to the other nominees for ruining “your moment.” he said he was sorry for both of these things.
Why is “CLM” flooding Will Smith’s comment section?
I just now saw the video in which Will Smith apologises, and the comments section was completely filled with the hashtag #CLM.
The comment box below Will Smith’s video was taken over by the acronym “CLM,” which caused many users on the internet to get perplexed. Several remarks made online read like follows:
When broken down into its full form, the abbreviation “CLM” refers to the movement “Cucks Lives Matter.”
The term “cuck” refers to a man who is weak, and when people commented “CLM,” they were urging other internet users to support Will Smith despite the fact that he had a moment of weakness onstage during the Academy Awards.
The Internet users who used the lingo may also be saying that the actor is a coward for having to resort to extreme measures because his wife Jada Pinkett Smith was unhappy with the joke.
Erobb221, a famous streamer on Twitch, uses the phrase “CLM” in almost all of his broadcasts. The internet personality is best known for streaming his games of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and League of Legends. In 2014, he established his own personal account on the platform.
Since graduating from Culver-Stockton College with a degree in sports management, the now 26-year-old has established himself as a popular streamer on Twitch. On Twitch, the Missouri native has gained more than 387,059 followers, and his streams have been viewed more than 11.6 million times.
What did Chris Rock say about the infamous Oscars slap?
Chris Rock, who is 57 years old, gave his fans the assurance that he was “not a victim” on July 24, during a stand-up event in New Jersey at which he appeared alongside Kevin Hart.
On the meantime, Jada Pinkett Smith addressed the controversy surrounding the Academy Awards in an episode of Red Table Talk. Following the tragic incident that occurred at the Oscars, she expressed the desire that the two “intellectual, capable men have an opportunity to heal” and “reconcile” with one another.
