The Board of Governors for the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences has voted to ban embattled Hollywood star, Will Smith from all Academy events, including the Oscars for 10 years.

The decision was part of the consequences for Smith after he slapped comedian Chris Rock during the 94th Oscars telecast.

Smith slapped comedian and actor, Rock, for making jokes about his wife during the live broadcast live of the Oscars award ceremony.

Shortly after the incident, which had already sparked reactions around the world, Smith won the most coveted prize of the night, Best Actor, for his role in the biopic, King Richard.
