Willow Smith says she was not fazed by the media firestorm that broke out after her father, Will Smith, slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Academy Awards, because she sees her \u201cwhole family as being human.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 21-year-old singer and Emmy nominee broke her silence on the controversial incident in an interview with Billboard published Friday, saying it didn\u2019t derail her creativity or \u201crock me as much as my own internal demons.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI see my whole family as being human, and I love and accept them for all their humanness,\u201d she told the publication. \u201cBecause of the position that we\u2019re in, our humanness sometimes isn\u2019t accepted, and we\u2019re expected to act in a way that isn\u2019t conducive to a healthy human life and isn\u2019t conducive to being honest.\u201d<\/p>\n
At the ceremony back in March, Will Smith hit host Rock after the comedian made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith\u2019s shaved head as he presented the Academy Award for best documentary. Pinkett Smith suffers hair loss due to the autoimmune condition alopecia.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Fresh Prince of Bel-Air\u201d star then walked off the stage and shouted, \u201cleave my wife\u2019s name out of your f**king mouth\u201d from his seat.<\/p>\n
Smith, 53, has since resigned from the Academy, which banned him from the awards show for 10 years.<\/p>\n
Last month, following a break from social media, Smith said he was \u201cdeeply remorseful\u201d about his actions in a video posted to his verified Instagram account.<\/p>\n
