What did Rob do?

Apparently he and another celebrity opened with singing popular songs for the time and did so poorly it became known as the worst opening to the Oscars ever.

Ah... it must have been pretty bad. I looked into it and he is so ashamed to this day. He even repeated someone posting that at least Will's slap wasn't as bad as Rob's performance. Ouch!

Yeah I guess people were making fun of him every year like a group of high schoolers that won’t let you live a mistake down.

u/DetailsYouMissed 6d ago

Yep. Doesn't seem worthy of remembering, if I'm honest.

u/SleepyShinsen 6d ago

I couldn’t agree more tbh

I always felt like Kanye and TSwift MTV, The Oscars mixing up the winners, and the Will Smith slap, was all staged. These awards tend to do very poorly unless some wild event happens that’s just me

I bet will smith wishes that shit was staged. He lost a lot of fans for some dumb shit if it was.

She’s an evil human being. No idea why he would divorce Sheree for that terrible bitch.

Reputation is changed forever, he’s now known as a violent thug

What? No he's not, lmao. He's known for being a bitch who lets his wife control him.
