So while Will Smith is touted as one of the nicest dudes in Hollywood, former Fresh Prince co-star Janet Hubert (Aunt Viv) is ready to unleash a tell-all book that reveals a darker side to the actor.
In Perfection Is Not a Sitcom Mom, Hubert claims that Smith would "sabotage" any actor who "outshone him" and attempts to set the record straight on her sudden departure from Bel Air, when she was fired and replaced with Daphne Maxwell Reed.
On her website, she explains that "I chronicle the sudden change of [Vivian's] character like a CSI episode, detailing the plot, the murder, the funeral and the trial, with actual deposition material taken by a team of nine attorneys," which sounds a little nutty to us.
Smith addressed the controversy back in 1993, saying, "I can say straight up that Janet wanted the show to be 'The Aunt Viv of Bel-Air' show. She's mad now, but she's been mad all along. She said once, 'I've been in the business for 10 years and this snotty-nosed punk comes along and gets a show.' No matter what, to her I'm just the Antichrist."
They might be freaky in the bedroom, but they aren't THAT freaky.
For the first time, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith are speaking out against the many tabloid rumors surrounding their marriage and their sexuality. Plinko Smith gave a very candid radio interview this Tuesday in Atlanta and laughed off rumors that the way their marriage works is hiding their true sexuality.
Jada confesses: "I've heard all the things — their marriage is not real, he's gay, she's gay, they swing. But at the end of the day, people have to believe what they have to believe…One thing Will and I are not here to do, is like, what's real for us is what's real for us, so you can either get on that bandwagon or not. I'll tell you what, it's too hard to be in a pretend marriage. Life's too short for that one."
Will agrees with his hag wife, on that and the subject of his alleged change in religion: "You have to let that roll off you. There's a natural narcotic my brain must pump, because negativity doesn't last," he said in a past interview.
True. True.
And in all honestly, we don't believe they're gay at all.
In a recent interview, Plinko Smith reveals it's the spontaneous fooling around in random places that keep the spark alive and she wants to impart the same wisdom to her fellow ladies trying to spice things up: "Be sneaky… your girlfriend's house at a party. The bathroom. A bedroom."
And Jada admits she's often got sex on the brain and she's usually the one to surprise her man: "Pull over on the side of the road… Think of places outside that are comfortable to have sex."
Wow. The Smiths are a little more risque than we would have guessed!
After years of avoiding the spotlight, Harrison Ford has made quite the comeback!!!!
The Indiana Jones star tops Forbes' annual list of Hollywood's highest earning actors!
Ford came out of near retirement for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and was offered a deal to split the proceeds of the film, which earned him $65 million between June 2008 and June 2009.
Impressive!!!
Other actors who came close include Adam Sandler, Will Smith, Eddie Murphy, Nicolas Cage and Johnny Depp.
By the time they actually get around to remakingThe Karate Kid, no one will care because so much has already been revealed about it. And that's a good thing!
So in the Jaden Smith vehicle (produced by papa Will Smith, natch), his character has been renamed Dre, who has a penchant for skate boards and video games. His single mother relocates the family to China where, not knowing the language, Dre gets beat up. That's when Jackie Chan, whose character has been renamed Li Quan Ha, comes in and teaches Dre the way of Kung-Fu, not karate.
But they're keeping the name The Karate Kid - how else will they hook unsuspecting fans of the original?
During a movie industry convention, Showest, yesterday in Las Vegas, Sony revealed its love for trilogies.
The studio is working on releasing Men In Black III and Ghostbusters III.
Seriously, MIB 3? Is that really necessary?
Ghostbusters we're totally feeling. They should have released that movie years ago!
Can Sony still afford Will Smith's salary for some shitty trilogy and would he even consider it? Or maybe just produce it?
No screenwriter has yet to be hired for the flick.
As for Ghostbusters, it's obvious the original gang consisting of Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd is too old to be fighting the paranormal. Instead, they'll return to mentor a new crew of Ghostbusters.
Everyone wants to share their opinion on the Chris Brown and Rihanna controversy. Though some remarks are clearly just idiotic.
This time around, it's Will Smith giving his thoughts.
Thursday night at the NAACP Image Awards, Smith said: "Jada and I reached out to both of them. If it's help they need, then let's get it right. This is a time where they need to be left alone and if they have things they need to work out, work it out."
We agree, though someone should fess up to the truth. And if Chris does have a history of hitting RiRi, then they both need to seek help NOW.
Smith continued, "People should take a minute before they jump on it and judge. We don't know nothing. If there are mistakes people make, then they should be willing to live up to the mistakes and do whatever penance they need to do. I don't think it's up to us, specifically the media, with such a fast hand to try to chop someone's head off."
Forbes decided to do yet another(!) survey - they gotta keep their writers busy - and they decided to take a look at some numbers.
What did they discover?
They discovered that Will Smith is the most valuable actor in Hollywood.
Smith was the only actor to received a perfect 10 in the Forbes Star Currency survey.
Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Angelina Jolie all tied for second place. The rest of the top 20 include Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, Meryl Streep, Jack Nicholson, and Matt Damon.
These are the folks who can almost guarantee to pull in numbers at the box office, regardless of the film they're starring in. And with a combined 69 nominations and 15 wins, as far as film awards go, they're not so bad at acting either.
So in an economy where people might not want to spent $10 on a movie they might end up not liking, we bet we'll be seeing Will Smith's face a whole lot more these days!
According to a new survey, movie theater owners heart Will Smith big time because he reels in the big bucks.
Tom Cruise's best friend was voted the star who generated the most box office revenue for theaters in an annual survey by Quigley Publishing Co.
This summer, the Will flick Hancock made a jaw dropping $228 million.
Here's the rest of the list, in rank order:
Robert Downey Jr.
Christian Bale
Shia LaBeouf
Harrison Ford
Adam Sandler
Reese Witherspoon
George Clooney
Angelina Jolie
Daniel Craig
Is Will upset that his bestie, Tom, didn't make the list?
