Will Smith Reacts to Childish Gambino Mentioning Him in BET Awards Speech

Will Smith has responded to Childish Gambino’s mention of him during the BET Awards, showing his support for the rapper’s candid speech. In a video shared on Instagram, Smith can be seen laughing in agreement with Gambino’s critique of award shows.

During his off-the-script monologue at the awards ceremony, Donald Glover took a jab at the Grammys and BET Awards, comparing his record at both events to that of Will Smith and Sam Smith. Gambino humorously pointed out the discrepancy in the number of awards he has compared to the two other artists.

Smith, who performed his new gospel single at the BET Awards, clearly found Gambino’s comments amusing and was seen laughing heartily while watching the segment backstage. Gambino, who has won one BET Award for “This is America,” has been nominated multiple times across various categories.

As Glover gears up to release his new movie and album, fans can expect more from the multi-talented artist. His upcoming project, “Bando Stone & The New World,” features him as a fictional pop star navigating a post-apocalyptic world. The film, set to be released this summer, will be accompanied by a new album from Childish Gambino, marking his final release under that moniker.

With his continued success in music, film, and TV, Donald Glover is sure to add more accolades to his already impressive trophy collection in the coming year.
