Cuba Gooding Jr. may have won critical praise for his portrayal of O.J. Simpson on this year's FX minseries, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story.

I’m drunk now, motherf-ckers. Deal with it.” The crowd laughed right along with Cuba because… let's face it… they knew they were at the Footwear News Achievement Awards. “I thought the BET Awards were cheap,” Gooding says below. “In the words of Spike Lee, excuse my language but, they can fu-k you too, Spike.” An insider confirms to The Daily Mail that Gooding went straight for the bar as soon as he got inside the venue, prior to making a “beeline for Rihanna.” Gooding was also telling people that he and his wife are now separated. Ouch. Awkward! Watch the uncomfortable (and hilarious!) speech play out below:
