Director Spike Lee and actress Jada Pinkett Smith vow to boycott the Academy Awards ceremony after black actors are shut out of the nominations. The Academy says it needs to do more to promote diversity. Edward Baran reports.
With the lack of diversity among the Oscar nominees, Jada Pinkett Smith declares she will not attend the Oscars along with famed Director Spike Lee. 2016 Oscar host Chris Rock has made no public comment about the matter while legendary actress Whoopi Goldberg is outspokenly against the boycott.
After the Oscars released a statement in which they aimed for more diversity, George Clooney is the latest celebrity to speak his mind about this year's nominees.
Tom Holland, Letitia Wright , Adele, Lady Gaga and Winston Duke are among those named as members of the Academy this year.
Jada Pinkett Smith thinks she'd be a "horrific" Oscars host, as she says there's "so many other people" who would do a better job.
