More Will Smith Fall Out

After Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the 94th annual Academy Awards, his talent agency reportedly thought about letting him go.

According to Page Six, a leadership retreat at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes held by Smith’s agency, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), became the site of a debate as to whether or not to hold onto Smith as a client. Apparently, CAA is in the process of acquiring ICM, the agency that represents Chris Rock, so the company was at a crossroads.

However, Richard Lovett, who represents Smith, didn’t want to lose the King Richard star. Lovett was even described as “frazzled” while the agency discussed the matter.

Meanwhile, a CAA spokesperson claimed “there is no truth” to these rumors.
