As the first, you have me at the Slap Heard Around the World
Please Check your facts. It’s ridiculous when people say The artist of the millennium award doesn’t exist. When in fact it does. And you know who received said award? MICHAEL JACKSON. During the 2000 world music awards
25:40 *KEEP MY WIFE'S NAME OUT OF YOUR FREAKING MOUTH!*
@@karaokebackgroundplaylists9878 - that would be "f**king" mouth.. (commented it in Spanish to a local Gossip YT Creator). Will has been always as large as as LOUD.
LOL, you cupcakes still can't move on from 2016 and deal with the fact that your girl will never be President.
The Oscars had its awkward moments for almost every year, the slap is without a doubt the biggest awkward moment in Oscar history 😂😂
it's assault. not awkward.
@@ojeda5577 🤡👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽
Why do I see you in literally every video that is related to the film industry?
That terrible Slap is getting kinda annoying, and stupid now lol. I remember seeing vids of it trending on my TH-cam recommendation feed, and Instagram but those memes are very witty, and hella interesting.
LOL. Such small things to make a big deal about. Pretty much "oh damn" moments then you laugh about it and move on. Some moments are more cringy than others and at the moment I just feel bad Chris Rock is being hounded every second about this slap and what he thinks about it. I could care less he has his feelings about it whatever let the man move on
Ricky’s speech in 2020 is not awkward. It’s legendary 🔥🔥🔥
It was amazing
I bet you have a small penis and vote conservative
the funniest thing to witness is conservatives who are bitter at their lack of fame and money being politically cucked to hate celebs they're envious of by elitist politicians using them for votes while thinking Gervais is some sort of Voice of the People when he's a self-serving celeb who realizes the only thing he's done that's worth anything would be a tough sell these days
It will and will always be
Agree
Ricky Gervais' 2020 Golden Globe speech wasn't awkward at all - it was phenomenal. He called all of Hollywood out on their sh*t and only the guilty were angry about it
I bet you vote conservative and have a small Peter
I bloody love Ricky, such a good hearted person and not afraid to hold a mirror up to society.

well said
Perfectly put
'The pursuit of Slappiness' I started laughing louder then I probably should have.
I had no idea that Emma Stone yelled out, "I'm sorry!" So funny and it just confirms how adorable she is!
Please stop calling women in their thirties "adorable". It's creepy.
@@JennyJeong425 Look up the word "adorable" in a dictionary. You'll find a picture of Emma Stone's puppy eyes.
@@JennyJeong425 You're never too old to be ADORABLE!
She practically bent the knee to Hollywoke's AGENDA by Yelling that! :/
2020: That wasn't awkward. That monologue was hilarious
Nah. Don't lie. It was super cringy
@@Shane3125 I'm not lying. Hollywood elites and the world needed/needs a wake up call and reality check
I wish Ricky was at the oscars this year to tell Will the same thing he said at 22:48.
@@Shane3125 no it wasn't. Only snowflakes thought it was cringy
Ppl don’t like him
Watching Em just sit there with manbooty in his face saying “are you serious?” had me in tears 😂
Jackson should have got the award anyway. Dude was a hit maker and it would have been well earned. Was fun to watch. Great video
Well he did this martin bashir manipulative doc at the same time so maybe confusion explains it I do have my reservations on MJ though.
Lies again? Powered By AWS
Saw this one coming from a mile away.
Yes indeed but Kanye will be up there. That was the most talked about thing. Until will and Chris.
Okay
Yes, this was bound to happen
IKR 🤣😆
Did it slap you in the face?
Imagine if Ricky Gervais was up there instead of Chris Rock, you think Will Smith would dared to slap him?
Yes
@@propjoe3519 😂
He would have got one back but not a slap!!
Though Ricky Gervais is more successful and loved among fans than Chris Rock .i don't understand why u are saying would he dare slap him ? Ricky is even shorter than Chris Rock . Will is 6feet + Ricky is 5ft 8 .
I don't think Ricky is more successful than will Smith that will would have held back because of success .
Dont misjudge me for will Smith supporter .
I hated will Smith for what he did . He didn't deserved standing ovation or oscar after what he did . But i don't understand why won't he dared to do that with Ricky Gervais
I think there would be a lot less black people angry at Will Smith
That wasn't Will S. defending his wife's honor. That was Will S. being her attack dog!!
Gotta have Respect to Chris Rock after that slap and still be able to hold his own and turn spin it into another joke! I thought it was all part of the show at first.
@@diamonds5457 He was way to nice. I like how jim carrey commented on the who thing and totally agree with him.
Yeah gotta love bullies!
Lol I know I'm late but I did too until I was like this is the Oscars ain't no way in hell they would've allowed all that cussing will was doing
@@trendyinsight9080 I commend Chris Rock for handling the slap professionally and rightfully ranting about it in Selective Outrage. Chris has always been one of my favorite comedians and I couldn’t bear to see him get smacked by Will onstage in front of a crowd anticipating their Oscars.
Now we finally have the new meme that will replace the Batman slapping Robin one.
Fun Fact: Jim Carrey said that had he been in Chris Rock's place he would have sued Will Smith for 200 millions.
He would have never been in Rock's place though as Jim Carey doesn't base his whole comedy routine around belittling people.
2022: The Pursuit of Slappyness
🤣🤣🤣
Or maybe: The Fresh Prince of Slap Hand
Slap Squad
That Katy Perry cake fail had me laughing so hard
She face planted so hard on the cake. You could tell it hurt her lol
I'm sorry but that wasn't a "fight." That was ASSAULT. Or it would have been for the rest of us mere mortals. 🙄
Mojo is just being dramatic
It would have been a fight if Chris refused to act with dignity and grace, and just flat out clocked Will right back. I respect Chris. Any respect I had for Will was flashed down the toilet.
Not assault unless you press charges
I know legally it's assault, but it's not really assault in that it didn't really hurt Chris Rock. If Will Smith really wanted to hurt him he would've. The slap was just an awkward moment that only hurt him and his reputation, not anyone else.
will smith: slapped Chris rock
memers: allow us to introduce ourselves
except here is the thing man: you shouldn't be making memes about this shit. It was a tragic situation for all and really isn't that funny. All these "memes" of Marty and Oscar fighting is disappointing and you "memers" should really stop it. Move on to something else less offensive because this wasn't a joke mate... it was serious.
@@ronniekitchens8402 I wouldn’t say disappointing, I’d say the slap was embarrassing and unnecessary. You do have a point, though.
Slapped him in person infront of millions
Apologizes on social media sitting behind the screen
Really heartfelt
Jeremy Renner had me laughing
The face he makes after saying it 🤣
Everytime Michael Douglas speak it sounds like he's Acting...He is truly one of the Greats
My friends and I still yell out “Adele Dazeem” out of nowhere for laughs. 😆
That Emma Stone one is hilarious 😂
Steve Harvey is lucky the (2015) Miss Universe pagent is not considered an award show.
What happened there?
Ricky Gervais’ speech was the greatest thing ever. Not awkward. Amazing. Nothing will top that.
Sixteen million people will never forget the Will Smith/Chris Rock controversy.
That Emma Stone "I'm sorry!" moment is comedy gold!!!
The whole Anne Hathaway and Franco presenting was awkward! 😂😂
We never expected the self proclaimed "Mr. Nice guy" Will Smith, of all people, to react the way that he did at this year's Oscar's. It would have been like if nice old Weird Al Yankovic was to slap someone.
Yeah... We didn't expect America's greatest dad ( Cosby) to drug and rape women. We didn't expect inspirational iconic hero ( Armstrong) to CHEAT. Keep being naive bro
@@robogreek3157 I was just sharing my initial thoughts. I'm not saying it's not possible for these things to happen. People state their shock when these things happen. Isn't that the whole point of a public forum: for people to make comments on these things? If you're not a big fan of people doing normal things like that (and have been doing it for centuries), you should probably stay away from public forums.
There's no need for you to get your panties in a bunch, sir.
The Oscars are definitely an odd event, to say the least.
Very. Maybe getting rid of them all together. Half the people and movies nominated no body every heard of or saw
it's assault
@@ojeda5577 I'm not arguing that. I'm just saying that some of the outrage by the public and celebrities. Are a bit hypocritical. Will shouldn't have handled it the way he did.
Yeah
Ricky Gervais is legend.
I love Ricky's monologue at the 2020 Golden Globes. Its hilarious.
It really made Will smith on the same level as Kanye west
Imagine if Ricky Gervais roast the shit outta Will Smith 😂😂😂
He said that if he was hosting he wouldn't have made a joke about Jada, he would've made a joke about Jada's boyfriend
@@OscarMPG1 wouldn't that pissed off Will too? I mean I can see Jada not enjoying the joke then Will could've slapped the shit outta Ricky for good in Jada's defense. Would be another drama for him but hey Ricky is just telling the truth 😂😂
@@K0m30ng Gervais doesn't care. Nothing is off limits for him. That's what makes him a great comedian
When Rock finally forgives Smith, they are definitely going to recreate this scene in the future! Maybe on SNL.
Oscar slaps Marty.
I don’t think I’ll ever forget it
Haha
Over a comment made about Gloria
Chris Rock is the real champ here. Did he not only take the hit, he maintained his composure and was very professional. Will Smith may have portrayed Ali, but came out the loser. I always looked up to Will Smith until this point. I hope Will Smith will seek out help and apologize to Chris Rock and acknowledge what he had done was wrong. I hope Will can rebuild his legacy back to once it was.
I have always been a Will Smith fan, but I'm afraid that this egregious behaviour has put a strike on his record that will be near to impossible to overcome, especially now that he has withdrawn himself from the Academy. 😔
His help sought.... Is called...A DIVORCE homie
Ricky gets away with it! He’s hilarious
The will smith slap wasn’t awkward it was straight up sad and uncomfortable !
exactly!!!! it's assault!!!! like wtf is wrong with people!
@@ojeda5577 it's not assault unless you press charges
I fucking love Ricky Gervais 😆
I’m surprised that Steve Harvey’s mixup didn’t get mentioned as a top mixup of that year.
Wasn’t an awards show moment.
@@loonylovesgood it was for Miss Universe 2015. How is that not an award show moment?
@@beauhopkins7064 it's a contest, and they give you a title, not an award
First runner up
the ¨im sorry¨ moment from Emma was hilarious!!
I loved Jeremy Renners "you got the globes too". It felt taboo for the award show which is just lovely
The streaker moment from 1974 was odd, but totally funny.
Ok your comments about Gaga’s meat costume about being a head scratcher had me laughing
Damn that Slap made it to Watch Mojo.. Chris and Will, will always remember this 😩😭
We knew it would. But I still think it was stagged.
@@kershabeaver3312 ah shit here we go again, what makes you think it's staged dude?? If it's staged, Will and Chris would've solved this earlier and say it out loud that they planned this together but they don't. Comedians can be unpredictable, you never know what kind of jokes that are gonna come out from their mouth. Chris literally said that he's still processing the slap it means it was real
Yes!
@@K0m30ng the slap didn't connect. I just wondering why security didn't get to him before he got all the way up there. That's just my opinion
@@kershabeaver3312 Yeah, that's what I thought. Imagine getting slapped by somebody on stage and there are no security to de-escalate such situation. Doesn't seem right!!
Honestly Sandra Oh's dig at Ghost In The Shell and Aloha is iconic
2022 is not over yet, we just getting started… wait til Grammy and MTV awards for the craziness!!
2007 should've been Britney's awkward performance at the 2007 VMA's.
Yes indeed!
Five legends in that 2010 clip wow.
Kesha, Cher, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga
"The Pursuit of Slappyness" HA!
Good one Mojo.👍
Ricky Gervais should be a permanent award show host
I actually found Joe and Katys endearing... they walked (or crawled) things off and laughed it off later. I was at the 2009 VMAs in NYC and it was insane.
I think the most awkward and unnecessary was Will, there was zero reason for what he did and while I blame him I also think Jada has him under her finger and thats why he did it. I just feel bad for Chris Rock since he had no idea and even if he did he was making a lighthearted comment, not an insult and I also feel for QuestLove because his win was so overshadowed.
OMFG! 'Ghost in the Shell' WAS NOT whitewashed!!! The Major's robotic body(shell) was a European model...I.e..CAUCASIAN!!! Even the original anime's creator praised her casting.
Michael Moore is amazing because he speaks truth. Ricky Gervais wasn't awkward. He was funny
Moore was right about the weapons of mass destruction, they never existed it was just about invading Iraq to get the oil.
Agent K: Not your best day, J
I've never heard Katy Perry sing as badly as she did here, is that how her real singing voice is. Without the magic of electronics ?.
Ive seen some clips of her singing live and sounding awful so I am leaning to yeah
@@BrianaCunningham - 👍
Everyone sings badly at award shows
Slowly increasing the numbers to reuse old video ideas. Love it
Shout out to Will for reminding everyone what a horrible person he is behind that smiley-guy persona. Fresh Prince was a long time ago...
"Trump is known for beating more qualified candidates" THE SOUND THAT I MADE!!
I wish you guys mentioned Steve Martin's reaction to Michael Moore at the 75th Oscars...."It's so sweet. The teamsters are helming Michael Moore into the trunk of his limo."
The Pursuit of Slappiness.
Of course this list would come up.
*The slappiest slap in the history of slapping*
Anthony Hopkins is an absolute legend ❤ one of my all time favourite actors
How did a banal joke about the tourist that didn't even offend it's star somehow beat out James Franco and Anne Hathaway's utterly disastrous Oscars hosting gig? The part where Franco came out in drag easily could have made the cut.
Rebekah! I spit my coffee out when YOU said, "Gladiatah!!!" 😂
It's only April. Wouldn't it be crazy if we had a more awkward award show moment this year? Thereby invalidating this list.
Will Smith and Chris Rock made the "Batman Slapping Robin" meme.
I'm not surprised they put that slapped at number one
"Artist of the Millenium:" Despite his fair share of controversies, I think we can forgive Michael Jsckson for misinterpreting this.
At least Kate was laughing I think that helps make it less awkward
Can't believe when Madonna kissed Britney & Christina wasn't the moment for 2003.
OMG why did you remind me of that LOL. That was definitely awkward and unnecessary but the look on Justin Timberlake's face was priceless
Will Smith reaction was certainly an over the top reaction. He could have met Chris Rock back stage after show and confronted him on how Rock made fun of Will's wife.
Given the fact that Will laughed at the joke, I think he was more concerned about his pride than his wife's so-called honor.
We assume will smith’s moment is the most awkward this early in the year?
Putting JLo and the Golden Globes 2015 over Madonna falling at the Brits? Noooo.
C'mon 2022 isn't even over yet 🤣
Steve Harvey and Miss Universe was WAY more awkward than Jennifer Lopez’s Golden Globes.
Will Smith Using violence at an awards show of the most priviledged elites over a mediocre joke was soooooooo "AWKWARD".... SMH
Adele dazeem is still the best one. Cracks me up every time
Kanye was easily the most iconic
Think we all knew Will Smith would be number one! His craziness at the Oscars proved it! lol
Wow, Patton Oswald handled the situation perfectly. Keeping his cool, rearranging things, informing the audience, comforting Brittany and cracking jokes. Yeah, mixups happen, but addressing them the proper way is crucial so nobody is left with hurt feelings.
Ricky Gervais deserves an Humanitarian Academy Award for his efforts to defend freedom of speech
the biggest slap of all the oscar ceremonies❤👍
Will shoulda been kicked out but instead everyone acted like nothing happened. He should have won the oscar for his acting performance for accepting the oscar. He made everyone try to feel for him. My god what an actor.
In Jeremy Renner's defense, everyone will get distracted at J-Lo's dress too.
Did nobody notice Jennifer Lopez’s Areola just sticking out though??💀
“The Pursuit of Slappyness.” Mojo has *NO* filter. 😬
Joke wasn’t even that good, but all the drama going on rn is hella good 😂😂✌🏼
That was the most horrific comment about Chadwick not receiving the award ...there's nowhere to go from there... OMG are you serious he deserved that award! And yes I believe being it was he's last chance for his spirit and family he definitely deserved it!!! And if you don't agree please watch the movie first!
To be honest, I'm sick of hearing about the slap incident at this point. It was funny and shocking at first but with folks taking sides, celebs dog piling their thoughts on it, and the countless memes coming from it....I'm just over it now.
I agree I don't even follow celebrities bullshit so I don't really care lol
Y’all are quick 😂
2019 should've been that moment from the Grammy's when Childish Gambino won Song of the Year, and the people accepting on his behalf had to awkwardly take the award from Alicia Keys while she kept repeating "Childish!"
16:45 John Travolta's classic flub.......AND 19:28 the wrong Oscar envelope mix-up with Warren Beatty. WatchMojo doesn't bother to show them; they only TELL you about them! Ah, hellooooooooo? Ever hear about "show, don't tell?"
91: I clicked for the Slap Heard round the World
Is she serious? Is she gladiator? 🤣
I was waiting for WatchMojo's to make video on Will Smith's Oscar moment
Will Smith definitely takes the #1 spot.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol it was by year not top 20🤣
2018 should have been the Balloon D'Or host asking for the female winner to twerk
