Schneider\u2019s comments come after an incident at the 2022 Academy Awards where\u200d Smith assaulted\u200b comedian Chris Rock on stage. Schneider suggests that this incident revealed Smith&#8217;s true character, a sentiment echoed \u200bby ESPN host Stephen A. Smith. Stephen A. Smith has publicly expressed disappointment in Will Smith and insists that the actor needs to address the black community and publicly discuss the incident before he can support Smith&#8217;s future works, including the movie\u200d \u201cBad Boys: Ride or Die.\u201d Smith\u2064 did apologize the day after the Oscars incident, but has not \u200dspoken publicly \u2062about it since then.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<header> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/news\/\">  News <\/a>   <span> <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/maustin\/\">  <\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <span>   By <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/maustin\/%20\"><span>Michael Austin<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <span>   June 12, 2024 at 6:20pm <\/span> <\/span>  <\/header>\n<section>\n<p>Comedian Rob Schneider doesn\u2019t have a very high opinion of fellow Hollywood veteran Will Smith.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, he thinks Smith is a straight-up \u201ca**hole\u201d and \u201cfraud.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schneider said as much during a Tuesday appearance on the \u201cKyle and Jackie O\u201d radio show.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>WARNING: The following clip contains language some readers may find offensive.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p> <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Rob Schneider BLASTS Will Smith in radio rant\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7UxJKArsVvY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>According to Schneider, Smith was \u201chiding \u2026 who he really is\u201d for some time, but was eventually \u201cexposed\u201d during the 2022 Academy Awards.<\/p>\n<p>During the award show, Smith became incensed after host Chris Rock made a joke about Smith\u2019s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith.<\/p>\n<p>This prompted Smith to walk up on the stage and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/will-smith-issues-apology-oscars-slap-heard-around-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">assault Rock on stage<\/a> by slapping him in the face \u2014 during the live TV broadcast \u2014 in a moment that has since been dubbed \u201cthe slap heard \u2019round the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s really an a**hole,\u201d Schneider said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\">\n<p>Do you agree with Schneider?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s a liar, complete, utter fraud.
