The Golden Globes is known for being one of the most chaotic events on TV.
It’s where the booze flows freely with the stars, ridiculous unfiltered speeches happen, and oh, where beefs begin.
This time, the most unpredictable awards show pulled off a prank so epic, it’s left one star a little red-faced in front of millions of people.
And who was the prankster? Well, it’s everyone’s comedy dad—Eddie Murphy.
However, it seems as though the actor on the receiving end of the joke is none too pleased.
Especially since he’s been through the ringer in the last year.
Will Smith is fuming at Eddie, and we’ve got the deets.
During the Golden Globes, Murphy delivered a joke that left the audience in stitches but struck a nerve with Smith.
The prank, while meant in good humor, touched on sensitive topics related to Smith’s recent controversies and personal struggles.
Smith, who has been under intense public scrutiny and pressure, did not take kindly to being the butt of Murphy’s joke.
Eyewitnesses reported that Smith confronted Murphy backstage, expressing his frustration and disappointment over the joke.
The tension between the two stars was palpable, with Smith reportedly telling Murphy that the prank was in poor taste, considering the difficult year he had endured.
Murphy, known for his quick wit and humor, seemed taken aback by Smith’s reaction.
He attempted to explain that the joke was meant to be light-hearted and not to be taken seriously.
However, Smith’s emotional state and recent experiences made it hard for him to see the humor in the situation.
