It's all a big conspiracy. The LAPD, Academy, Chris Rock, Jada Pinkett and Will Smith are all in on it. Other actors like Denzel and Tyler Perry were in on it. Will Smith's PR people were in on it. Will Smith is lying and ruining the good guy image he spent decades cultivating just so people talk about the awards show. Even if this was all a rouse, of all the things they could have staged, why would they have staged a top star assaulting someone?
