<h3 style="text-align: center;">The Actor Posted The Now-Viral Video On Monday</h3>
<p>Will Smith took to social media on Monday to share a video with fans. In it, the actor stitched a video of himself alongside a young woman explaining that inanimate objects can share their thoughts with people. More specifically, that inanimate objects can tell people how they feel about them.</p>
<p>Smith reacted to the woman&#8217;s explanation, shaking his head as she explained herself.</p>
<blockquote><p>It sounds insane but it will change your life&#8230; Did you know that you can pick any object, look at it, and ask it, what it thinks of you? So for example, you can pick up a pen and ask it how it sees you or what it thinks of you. And you will get an answer in your mind, from your intuition&#8230;</p>
<p> ;</p></blockquote>
<p>Smith then turned his head to look off-screen, as if struck by a strong thought.</p>
<p>The video then switched back to a solo shot of Smith. And he picked up his Oscars trophy from last year&#8217;s award ceremony. And held it into the camera&#8217;s view.</p>
<p>The actor appears to say a few inaudible words to the trophy.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">The Infamous Oscars Night &; &#8220;The Slap&#8221;</h3>
<p>As <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/will-smith-wins-best-actor-at-the-2022-academy-awards-following-altercation-with-chris-rock/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Shade Room</a> previously reported, Smith won the award for Best Actor at the 2022 Oscars.</p>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="CbodTL7M-cQ" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
<p>The moment was preceded by the actor slapping comedian <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/chris-rock-calls-will-smiths-apology-video-a-hostage-video/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chris Rock</a> on live television for comments he made about his wife <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/jada-pinkett-smith-briefly-addresses-the-oscars-slap-in-new-episode-of-red-table-talk-as-she-focuses-on-alopecia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jada Pinkett Smith</a>. And her hair loss.</p>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="CboY5G9F5NZ" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
<p>The actor has since apologized to Rock and the Oscars Academy numerous times for his actions. And has since been banned from the award ceremony for ten years, as reported by <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/will-smith-banned-from-the-oscars-for-10-years-after-chris-rock-slap/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Shade Room</a>.</p>
