Jim Carrey criticized Hollywood for giving Will Smith a standing ovation following his Chris Rock , saying it was disgraceful.
Carrey tore into everyone who got on their feet Sunday after Will won Best Actor and after delivery a lengthy and emotional speech, that touched on his work in “King Richard” and seemed to address the slap moment just minutes earlier.
The actor/comedian called the Academy and the attendees “spineless” and showed how stars often preach one thing but demonstrate another.
Jim said if he were in Chris' shoes, he'd sue Will Smith.
He went on to call the whole thing sickening and sad, especially since it overshadowed pretty much the entire ceremony and everyone else who went on to win that night.
Jim also pointed out that there seemed to be something deeper bothering Will.
The Academy announced they've launched an investigation and plan to convene a Board of Governors' meeting this week to determine Will's punishment.
