Will Smith may have fallen in love with Stockard Channing on the set of 1993’s Six Degrees of Separation, but Channing only felt “motherly” to the rising star, who was 23 and a newly married, first-time father at the time.
Channing — who earned an Oscar nomination playing a New York socialite who connects with a young con artist played by Smith in the film — opened up about working with the rising star in a new episode of The Hollywood Reporter‘s It Happened in Hollywood podcast.
“He made a lot [of money] from his music, or even Fresh Prince [of Bel-Air],” Channing said. “Because I remember we talked about it.” Despite his massive success in music and TV at a young age, “there was no big shot stuff at all” about Smith, she said.
“He had a real survival instinct in him,” Channing added, “which was completely perfect for the part. [There was a] genuine charm and a lovely sweetness about him.

Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith have been married for 25 years – and the couple still needs to squash rumors about their relationship.
“We’re still figuring it out… a lot has happened,” Jada told People. “The thing about relationships is that it’s constantly moving. Relationships are, it’s an organism. It’s its own thing. It’s constantly shifting and constantly moving. There’s a lot that transpired in the last two years, and so we’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together.”
In Jada’s web series Red Table Talk, she explained that she had a relationship with August Alsina, an R&b singer, while she and Will were separated.
Alsina had previously claimed he was in an “entanglement” with Jada while she was married.
Jada, 52, clarified that neither she nor Will, 55, has ever had an affair or open marriage through the entirety of their relationship.
“I tell him all the time.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have been Hollywood royalty for decades, and the addition of kids merely extended the family's influence. Will shares his oldest son, Trey, with his first wife, Sheree Zampino, but Trey seems to be just as close with Jada as he is with his mom. Trey is also close with and super supportive of his half siblings, Jaden and Willow, and all three kids are talented and driven, just like their parents.
In a 2016 interview with Jimmy Fallon, Will talked about his and Jada's parenting style, saying they use the "circle of safety." "They're allowed to tell us everything that they did [in the circle of safety], and they can't get in trouble," Will explained. "The rule is, if we find out after the circle of safety that there was something you didn't say, there was hell to pay."

Jaden Smith, the son of actors Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith, has revealed the extent of his bond with his mother. He admitted that she introduced him to psychedelics. The 24-year-old explained that his mother also paved the way for psychedelic drug usage in his family, including his father, Will Smith and sister Willow Smith, reports Mirror.co.uk.
“I think it was my mom, actually, that was really the first one to make that step for the family,” he said at the Psychedelic Science Conference in Denver.
“It was just her for a really, really long time, and then eventually it just trickled and evolved, and everybody found it in their own ways.”
Jaden also noted that his use of psychedelics helped him build a stronger bond with his 22-year-old sister and half-brother Trey Smith, 30, who is Will’s son from his past marriage to Sheree Zampino. As per USA Today,...

Will Smith’s big break in acting was the sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The show capitalized on Smith’s natural charisma and humor and proved he was more than just a rapper. Creator Benny Medina and producer Quincy Jones took a chance on Smith that paid off. The show lasted six seasons before Smith became such a big movie star, it was time to end the show. All six seasons of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air are streaming on HBO Max. If you like Fresh Prince of Bel-Air here are five other shows you may like too.

The pair are joined by Jada’s mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris as they discuss how things got off to a bit of a tricky start with them, given that Will only divorced Sheree two years before he and Jada tied the knot.

Jada recalls how Sheree once came into her and Will’s master bedroom without asking.

Will Smith has teased his return to social media after laying low for four months following the Oscars, when he made headlines for slapping Chris Rock on stage.
Smith struck presenter Chris Rock across the face at this year’s ceremony after the comedian made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s baldness.
Since the incident, Smith had only shared two Instagram posts – both apologising for his actions.
In his third post, made on Friday (19 August), Smith shared a short video of a young gorilla irritating a much larger gorilla by poking it multiple times in the backside. A message added to the video said: “Me trying to get back on social.”
Smith’s ex-wife, Sheree Zampino, responded with a heart emoji. This week, she also spoke about how she hopes Smith will receive “forgiveness” for the slap.

Will Smith's Ex Sheree Zampino Reflects on Co-Parenting Relationship With Him and Jada Pinkett Smith
Sheree Zampino's co-parenting relationship with ex-husband Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith might look easy—but it hasn't always been that way. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star recently shared how she and the King Richard actor were able to co-parent their son, Trey Smith, after Will started dating Jada. "You got three different dynamics, three different personalities and different belief systems, different way of doing things," Sheree shared during an Aug. 1 appearance on the Behind the Velvet Rope podcast. "And there were times where we have bumped heads and it hasn't been pretty." She added, "But...

The entrepreneur appeared on the August 1 episode of Behind the Velvet Rope With David Yontef, and it didn't take long for the incident involving Erika Jayne and Garcelle Beauvais' 14-year-old son Jax—along with the drama that followed—to come up. As Rhobh fans may recall, Erika drunkenly told the teen to "get the f--k out" of his mom's birthday party. She later apologized, but before she and Garcelle could properly reconcile, Kyle got involved to defend Erika's drinking. This, Sheree explained, is an example...

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are poised to have a lot of drama to unpack when the new season unfolds next month.
Bravo has dropped an insane trailer for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 12 (premiering May 11), and it's filled with drama.
If you watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online, you know Erika Girardi's legal troubles were a focal point of the most recent season.
Production kicked off on the new season earlier than ever to capture all of the drama as it played out.
That meant there was little to no break in-between seasons, meaning that a lot of the tension will carry over.
"The women attempt to balance their ever-evolving friendships with the demands of family life and growing business ventures, but a string of shocking events proves that living this large is more than meets the eye," reads Bravo's description of Season 12.

To recap: while presenting the Best Documentary Feature award, comedian Chris Rock made a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, being bald, making a reference to the 1997 Demi Moore film G.I. Jane.

The 2022 Oscars were all anyone could talk about Sunday night. From Ariana DeBose's historic win to heartwarming red carpet reunions, the evening was meant to acknowledge Hollywood's sheer brilliance, but it turned out to be an unforgettable night for all the wrong reasons.
Like most viewers, the heated altercation between Chris Rock and Will Smith threw me for a loop. The Academy's edits in the US broadcast made the encounter look choppy until raw footage later appeared online. Following Rock's tasteless joke about Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, and her buzzcut (a result of her hair loss and alopecia), the "King Richard" star approached the presenter on the Oscars stage and slapped him in the face. He followed up the hit by telling Rock twice, "Keep my wife's name out of your f*cking mouth." Was it real? Was it staged? That didn't matter to me. Because after my initial shock wore off,...

He followed up the hit by telling Rock twice, "Keep my wife's name out of your f*cking mouth." Was it real? Was it staged? That didn't matter to me. Because after my initial shock wore off,...
