He stated that he has studied different religions, and that he complements many ideas that they promote, including a love for mankind. A rumor came out regarding Will joining the Church of Scientology due to his close friendship with his fellow actor, Tom Cruise, but Will has strongly denied this. In fact, in one of his interviews, Will stated:. I am a student of all religions, and I respect all people and all paths. Currently, Will is occupied with several projects both in film and his music career.
Will also actively engages himself in philanthropic work, occasionally speaking in several youth conferences, encouraging the young people to never stop believing that they can achieve their goals and dreams in life. Will Smith was born in West Philadelphia in His parents are Williard Christopher Smith, Sr. Although Will was raised in a Baptist family, because of the West Philadelphia neighborhood being a melting pot of cultures, he got exposed to different cultural experiences that opened his mind to the existence of other faiths.
West Philadelphia was a community where Orthodox Jews and Muslims lived together, and Will had many friends from both cultures. In both in and out of the school, Will was known as a very good boy who had a charming personality and a quick tongue; Will was very good in playing with words, and he became renowned in his school and neighborhood for easily talking his way out of trouble.
Will graduated from high school with high remarks. Will took an early liking to rap music, but it was not until he was 12 that he actually started to sing rap songs, imitating his favorite rappers, such as Grandmaster Flash, but slightly modifying his rhymes with a tint of comedic elements that would later on be his trademark in making rap music.
When Will was 13, his parents separated, leaving him to be taken care of by his mother. This made a huge impact in Will, who looked up to his dad for always teaching him to never give up on something that he set his heart on.
Fortunately, even though they were separated, Williard and Caroline did not file for divorce until , allowing Williard to spend time with his son from time to time. When Will was 16 years old, he attended a party that was hosted by one of his friends. In spite of their love for rap music, the duo steered away from the Gangsta style of rap that was prevalent on the West Coast in groups such as NWA and Public Enemy.
Instead, Will composed rap songs that centered on teenage life in a clean, curse-free, and radio friendly style that the American public found safe, humorous, and entertaining. Naturally, it was a big, dumb action movie about two cops played by Smith and Martin Lawrence. Nobody is going to call it an artistic masterpiece, but it hits all the notes you want from a goofy action film.
Yeah, seeing Smith be all big and blue is weird. However, Smith did a solid enough job stepping into the role of the Genie. Once more into the breach, as they say. They are clearly older now, and to their credit that factors into the movie. It's a bit better than the first film, but as you have noticed in these ranking it isn't quite up to the level of the second one. Johnny Knoxville is annoying.
However, the chemistry between Smith and Tommy Lee Jones is still there, so it has its fun, charming moments. Somehow Smith has made only one romantic comedy. That makes it in some ways worse but also way more fun. It was a more mid-budget movie for Smith, but it still was a commercial success. A man finds himself the last person left on Earth…or so he thinks. Smith has to carry the film, and he largely does. This is before a ton of CGI characters was still super common. Dot" Miller.
You're born with talent and there are certain things that you just do naturally. You were gifted with a talent and you have it.
But skill is acquired through discipline. He went on to explain that he has never seen himself as someone who is particularly talented, but says he's always viewed himself as someone who is "willing to die" in the process of acquiring a skill.
