Will Smith was left “embarrassed and hurt” over Chris Rock’s comments in his latest Netflix special which reignited the controversy, according to a new report.
At Sunday night’s ceremony, celebrities walked a “champagne” colored carpet at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood after exes decided to shake things up for the first time in more than 60 years.
However, armchair pundits were less than impressed with the drastic change, taking to Twitter to fume over the carpeting.“Finally getting around to turning on the Oscars for the red carpet coverage… WTF is that champagne carpet?!?! No!!!! It looks horrible!!!”“Okay the “champagne” carpet at the Oscars is terrible. They look like they’re attending a corporate banquet at the airport Hilton.
Others claimed that women wearing light-colored dresses — like nominees Jamie Lee Curtis, Ana de Armas and more — blended into the carpet, whereas the older red carpet would have made their frocks pop. Curtis even joked about her glittering nude Dolce and Gabbana gown blending into the carpet on Twitter.“Apparently, at the Oscars, their carpet is going to match my drapes,” the “Everything Everywhere All At Once”
Organizers have previously stated that they were simply trying out a new color and there were no guarantees it would permanently replace the classic red carpet.
