Spike Lee Jada Pinkett-SmithTyrese, 50 Cent , Snoop Dogg and virtually all of Black Twitter may plan to boycott the Oscars, but the show will go on for Chris Rock. Sources close to the actor and comedian, who is hosting this year’s show, confirm that he has chosen to ignore the calls to bail on the whitewashed ceremony, in which no people of color have been nominated for Best Actor or Actress for the second year in a row.
