Jimmy Kimmel roasts Will Smith and the Academy in Oscars monologue

Last year’s Oscars were the most dramatic in recent memory, and the fallout is still being felt. Only a week ago, Chris Rock’s live comedy special – the first time he spoke at length about the moment Will Smith slapped him onstage – broke records for Netflix. Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel mentioned the incident in his trailer for this year’s show, as well as teeing up the telecast earlier this week. So: will the 95th Academy Awards be as overshadowed by the slap as the 94th? “Give me a second, I’ll adjust my danger zone here,” was Jimmy Kimmel’s first line.
