Jim Carrey said on CBS Mornings that he was "sickened" by the audience's standing ovation for Smith, and said that the actor should have been arrested.
"I wish him the best, I really do,' Carrey said. "I don't have anything against Will Smith. He's done great things. But that was not a good moment. It cast a pall over everybody's shining moment. A lot of people worked really hard to get to that place."
"And to have their moment in the sun, to get their award for the really hard work they did, it is no mean feat to go through all the stuff you have to go through when you are nominated for an Oscar," Carrey continued. "It's a gauntlet of devotion you have to do. It was such a selfish moment that cast a pall over the whole thing."
