'Yellowstone' actor says he won't attend the SAG Awards because of vaccine rules
CTV
An actor for the hit Paramount series 'Yellowstone' says he will not be attending the SAG Awards this month due to the event's COVID-19 vaccine requirements.
Forrie J. Smith, who plays ranch hand Lloyd Pierce on the show, posted a video on Instagram which has since been deleted, but not before being shared on social media. In the video Smith apologized for not being able to attend the awards ceremony.
"I mean no offence to anyone," Smith said. "I'm not vaccinated and it's a requirement to be vaccinated to be at the Screen Actors Guild Awards ceremony."
He added that he "will not get vaccinated."
"I haven't been vaccinated since I was a little kid. I don't vaccinate my dogs, I don't vaccinate my horses," Smith said. "I've never had a flu shot. I never will. I believe they compromise your immunities."
