I get not dressing fancy all the time but this guy dresses for an award show like my toddler going to the park. I’m surprised they let him in lol

[–] Nomorereddit@lemmy.today 37 points 1 week ago (2 children)

If your famous enough, they'll let you slap people on stage these days.

Will Smith is officially banned from attending the Oscars for 10 years. He's also lost the ability to produce new projects, with his IMDB credits drying up almost entirely after 2022.

One of the only people in Hollywood who you might seriously claim faced consequences for deplorable behavior. We can only speculate as to why.

[–] Nomorereddit@lemmy.today 2 points 1 week ago

Ty for that context and counterpoint.

But ill add that he then paid us back w/the insufferable "i like pretty girls" Song.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

you're*

Come on, it's not hard.

[–] Nomorereddit@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago

You’re right, and I appreciate your deep emotional investment in my contraction.

He wears what's comfortable, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Adam Sandler is famous for shooting movies in exotic/fun locations so that it doubles as a vacation for him and the actors/crew. He's beloved in the industry, and widely regarded as a good, friendly, loyal, down to earth person. Why on earth should someone like that be excluded from an awards show?

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hes rich, that’s the only reason. I like to dress comfy too but if you show up to a black tie event in shorts, it’s not being comfy, it’s being a disrespectful jerk.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Please explain how wearing a hoodie to a "black tie event" is disrespectful, and who it's disrespectful to.

[–] GunValkyrie@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

People need to find things to be mad over apparently. No one was disrespected. They clearly let him in dressed like that. And aside from the chat here no one is talking about this...

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

No one was disrespected

I say it's disrespectful to the attendees who put in the effort and money into looking nice for an evening where everybody agreed this would be the norm. I can't speak for these celebrities, but if it were my party and it was explicitly formal, I'd be annoyed about someone not following decorum.

[–] NeilBru@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

It was part of a skit.

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

It’s disrespectful to the people who set it up and to everyone else who is there to have a nice evening. Im not big on wrestling formal attire but I got invited to see the nutcracker at the symphony so I put on a nice sweater. Imagine you invite someone to a wedding and they show up like that, you’re gonna say that’s not disrespect I mean if you don’t find dressing like that to a black tie event disrespectful that’s just a reflection on you

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

How exactly does "seeing a man wearing shorts and hoodie" affect your "nice evening?" Seems weird to let something so small that is completely unrelated to you affect you so much that you feel disrespected. Honestly I'd argue your projection is more a reflection on you here.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It’s disrespectful to the people who set it up and to everyone else who is there to have a nice evening.

How

I mean if you don’t find dressing like that to a black tie event disrespectful that’s just a reflection on you

How

I'm begging you, explain how it's disrespectful. I don't think you can, because I think you agree with me that it isn't actually disrespectful.

[–] NewSocialWhoDis@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's offensive, but I can agree it's disrespectful. Respect is shown by the lengths someone goes through to demonstrate someone/ something is important and held in high regard.

Examples:

When you are talking to someone you respect, you demonstrate it by making a point to convey that you are listening to them and thinking about what they are saying.

When a tragedy happens, we often show respect by holding a moment of silence where we interrupt whatever we are doing to hold a moment to think about the victims.

Similarly, a traditional way of demonstrating respect for people's contributions in a given field is through an awards ceremony where attendees both given their attention and dress in formal attire to mark the significance and importance of the event.

It’s not my job to educate you or teach you manners or how to live in a society. How can I explain all that in a chat reply when you’re clearly ignorant and weren’t raised right. I can’t fix you dude

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

If you understood how it's disrespectful, it wouldn't be hard to explain. Here's an example:

Sexual assault is disrespectful because it violates a person's bodily autonomy, which is a fundamental human right.

See? Easy. Now, try that for "people who dress wrong".

The community is selectively bred Redditors, fam. We're just lucky they ban the obvious racism here.

Just pop your head into the threads about how showers are a scam or whatever and keep it in mind whenever you're talking to them

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Dress codes. We just went over this.

I just read the whole conversation, and I don't believe you did.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

There are two kinds of people, people that understand context

[–] titanicx@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And those to make shit up in their head got you and I know which one you are.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social -1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

😆

Okay buddy bell curve

[–] Cliff@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I think it was also part of a skit.

[–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah being dependable and easy to work with can go a lot further in the media than people think! It's also why sometimes you see these writers and directors with a string of shitty movies in their resume who keep getting hired for big-budget projects. Pretty often it's just because they're a cheap hire and don't cause drama lol.

[–] volvoxvsmarla@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wait this is not photoshopped?

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Probably not, there's been a lot of discussion about him never dressing up.

Personally, I think this is one of his more admirable traits. Most of his movies are mediocre, but dude's just keeping comfy and keeping his friends around for his movies. Seems to be enjoying life and I think that's more important than the imdb ratings.

Edit: Definitely not shopped lol
