Zoe Kravitz has given her take on the drama between Will Smith and Chris Rock – and it appears she’s on the comedian’s side of things.
It’s a view that has surprised fans, given her past friendship with the Oscar-winner’s son, Jaden.
After Will stormed the stage, hit and swore at Chris following a joke he made about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, Zoe shared her looks from the ceremony and after-party with some very shady captions.
‘Here’s a picture of my dress at the award show where we are apparently assaulting people on stage now,’ she wrote.
The 33-year-old went on to say: ‘And here is a picture of my dress at the party after the award show -where we are apparently screaming profanities and assaulting people on stage now.’
However, in the wake of her comments, some people have looked back on her link to the Smith family.
Zoe Kravitz and Jaden Smith’s friendship
Zoe, Will, 53, and Jaden, 23, starred together in 2013 post-apocalypse film After Earth.
The Batman actress, who was 24 at the time, was quoted as telling V magazine of her young co-star: ‘There were moments that I was hanging out with Jaden and thinking, I can’t believe you’re 14, I have to check myself, like what I say to you.
‘He has so much personality and so much swag, he is so much cooler than I am. And he’s so handsome, I was always like, when you’re older, you know, we’ll hang out… Nope, that’s inappropriate, you’re 14.’
In the wake of her comments about Will, she’s been criticised for her past remarks.
Zoe also spoke about King Richard star Will, describing him as ‘sweet’ and ‘down to earth’.
The actress told Elle magazine in 2013 following their film together: ‘He’s one of the kindest people I’ve ever met.
‘Watching him and Jaden together, it was cool to see so much love in their father-son dynamic. He’s a superstar but he’s the sweetest, most normal, down-to-earth person ever.’
The pair haven’t been linked much in the years following, but their families clearly stayed close.
In 2018, Will shared a snap of his daughter Willow braiding Zoe’s hair, with the actor writing: ‘Something about this pic gets me every time! Willow Smith braiding Zoe’s hair. Lenny Kravitz took this shot in Paris. The sisterly love is on [100 emoji].’
What has Jaden said about Will and Chris’ drama?
Will and Chris have both faced backlash for the Oscars drama.
The comedian has been criticised for the joke he made in reference to Jada’s hair, asking her about ‘G.I Jane 2’, as she suffers from alopecia. It’s been reported that Chris did not know about her condition.
Will has also faced backlash for his response, after he hit Chris and told him: ‘Keep my wife’s name out of your f**king mouth’. He has since apologised.
In the aftermath, Jaden said: ‘And That’s How We Do It.’
According to People Magazine, Jaden shared a now-deleted picture of himself in the back seat of a car, adding: ‘My Dads Speech Made Me Cry.’
