The Real Reason For Will Smith’s New Apology Video

On the show today… Beyoncé's highly anticipated seventh studio album Renaissance has been released into the wild and it’s already broken some pretty impressive records. But with the albumin release comes a new wave of controversy. Plus, following the Kylie Jenner double private plane backlash, a list of the worst private jet CO2 emissions from celebrities in 2022 has been released with Taylor Swift topping the list and then defending herself in a statement. But there’s a stronger power at play here that will let all these celebrities off the hook. And Will Smith has released a new apology video in regards to slapping Chris Rock at this year’s Oscars. In the video, he once again apologizes to Chris Rock, who has since given an under-the-radar response, but now we need to talk about the mechanics behind the video and why he really chose to post it.
