Many fans were left shocked after Will Smith smacked comedian Chris Rock live on stage in the face at the Oscars last night.The father-of-two has carved out a 'nice guy' of Hollywood image since his rise to fame in the Fresh Prince of Belair in the 90s.The King Richard star struck the comic after he made a jibe about Will's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.The drama unfolded when Chris joked about Jada Pinkett Smith's buzzcut, quipping: "Jada, can't wait for GI Jane 2."Later on in the evening, Will won Best Actor and as he walked up to the stage he slapped the presenter, before returning to his seat and shouting: "Keep my wife's name out of your f****** mouth."The joke Chris made was a reference to the 1997 movie G.I Jane - which starred Demi Moore sporting a buzzcut similar to Jada's.Jada has previously opened up about her decision to shave her head, after suffering from alopecia.But this wasn't the first time Will has got into a feud with a fellow celebrity, in fact he's had two pretty high profile beefs in the past which may have been forgotten about by fans until now.And one with rapper Eminem, also originated from an awards ceremony.Back in 1998, Will beat Eminem for Best Male Video at the MTV VMAS.He took the crown for his hit Miami, beating Eminem's iconic My Name Is.When he won, Will said he'd never "had to curse" in any of his songs to collect an accolade.Eminem took it as a personal dig, seeing as the only other artists in the category were Lenny Kravitz and Ricky Martin (up for Fly Away and Livin' la Vida Loca) who are both notable for their lack of swear words in songs.The next year, Eminem got the award he'd missed out on, for The Real Slim Shady.But it became apparent that he never forgot what was said.
