Will Smith has revealed he’s officially decided to skip the Oscars over the highly-publicized controversy surrounding the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ lack of diversity in their 2016 nominations.

“At this current time we’re uncomfortable to stand there and say this is OK,” the 47-year-old actor said during a Thursday, Jan. 21 appearance on Good Morning America.

Will’s admission comes just days after his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, 44, publicly bashed the Oscar nominations in a video message posted to her official Facebook page for only recognizing white actors in the major categories.

“There’s going to be children who are gonna sit down and watch this show and they’re not gonna be represented,” he continued. “The nominations reflect the Academy, the Academy reflects the industry… and the industry reflects America. There’s a regressive slide toward separatism, toward racial and religious disharmony.”
