Will Smith at Live 8
Willard Christopher Smith II (born September 25,
1968) is an African American actor and music rapper. Will was born and
raised in the Wynnefield section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the second
of four children. Smith often uses the line "West Philadelphia born
and raised" to describe his roots. He is one of the few personalities
in show business who has enjoyed success in the three major entertainment
media in the United States: movies, television and the music industry.
Will Smith started his career as part of the pop-rap duo DJ Jazzy Jeff
& the Fresh Prince (which is a former alias), performing humorous,
radio-friendly songs, most notably "Parents Just Don't Understand".
Smith was a charismatic and energetic performer, and in 1990 the NBC television
network signed him up and built a sitcom, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,
around him. Although Will Smith made a notable dramatic film debut in
Six Degrees of Separation (in which he played totally against type as
a gay con man) while still appearing in Fresh Prince, Smith's movie career
took off with his role in Bad Boys (1995) along with co-star Martin Lawrence.
After Fresh Prince came to an end in 1996, Will Smith began a successful
solo career in music and simultaneously starred in several blockbuster
movies, including Men in Black, Independence Day, Enemy of the State,
Wild Wild West, Ali and Bad Boys II. His most recent film is 2005's Hitch.
(Like Smith, Hitch co-star Kevin James starred in a sitcom named for royalty,
The King of Queens.)
Will Smith was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal
of the boxer Muhammad Ali in Ali. (His Ali co-star Jamie Foxx, another
actor/musician/comedian, later won the award for the 2004 Ray Charles
biopic Ray.)
Smith also released a string of hit singles, often associated with his
most recent movie, throughout the late 1990s. Will Smiths first two solo
albums went platinum, but his third, on Columbia Records, flopped, and
after a quick Greatest Hits release that was almost not advertised at
all, he was dropped by the label. Smith signed a recording contract with
Interscope Records and released Lost and Found in 2005.
Smith married actress Sharee Zampino in 1992. They had a son, Willard
Christopher Smith III, also known as "Trey." They divorced in
1995. Smith married actress Jada Pinkett in 1997. They have had two children:
Jaden Christopher Syre (1998) and Willow Camille Reign (2000). Along with
his brother Harry Smith, Will owns Treyball Development Inc., a Beverly
Hills–based company named for his first son.
