Following his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith‘s now viral video calling for a boycott of the 2016 Oscars which sparked major dialogue as well as some negative feedback this week, Will Smith himself is now speaking out on the Oscar controversy and the firestorm it has caused.

Will’s response comes days after his former Fresh Prince of Bel Air co-star Janet Hubert released her own viral video speaking out against Jada over the context of her boycott video, while most of her daggers were directed at Will.

Jada also responded to Janet’s criticism HERE and now Will has as well. As always the two do it so eloquently and without malice toward Janet. Check out what he had to say from an interview on Thursday (Jan 21) below.

Following Will and Jada’s respective responses to the firestorm, Janet threw herself back in the mix by sitting down with The Grio (Jan 21) to respond to critics who said that her condemnation of Jada’s Oscar boycott proposal was driven by a personal vendetta. Check out her latest reply to that and more Will shade below.
