But that’s not the only apology a “deeply remorseful” Will gave during his video. After having shared earlier that he reached out to Chris privately—Will noted that the comedian was not ready to talk to him quite yet—he also apologized to his peers.
“To all my fellow nominees. You know, this is a community,” he said. “It’s like I won because you voted for me and it really breaks my heart to have stolen and tarnished your moment.”
In sharing his regrets, Will specifically mentioned legendary musician and filmmaker Questlove, winner of the Oscar for Best Documentary, whose category Chris was presenting during the altercation. “I can still see Questlove’s eyes. You know, it happened on Questlove’s award and, you know, it’s like, I’m sorry, really, isn’t sufficient.”
