Will Smith: Biography
Will Smith started his career as part of the pop-rap duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince, 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. Smith began a successful movie career near the show's end with Bad Boys
(1995). After Fresh Prince came to an end in 1996, Smith began a successful solo career in music and starred in several movies, including Men in Black
, Independence Day
, Enemy of the State
, Wild Wild West
, and Ali. His most recent film is 2005's Hitch.
An interesting fact about
Hitch is that one of Smith's co-stars in that movie is Kevin James from The King of Queens
, which means that two of the film's stars have one thing in common: They are best known as the main characters in their television shows which have an element of royalty in the title (Fresh Prince and King of Queens).
Smith also released a string of hit singles, often associated with his most recent movie, throughout the late 1990s.
Smith is married to actress
Jada Pinkett Smith. Along with his brother Harry Smith, he owns Treyball Development Inc., a Beverly Hills, California-based company named for his son, Willard Christopher "Trey" Smith, III.
