1-MINUTE RESUME FOR WILL SMITH
After the success of his hip-hop duo, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, Will Smith landed The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, a comedy series based on his life. He established himself as a credible actor with 1993's Six Degrees of Separation and as an action hero with the hugely successful Independence Day (1996). Since then he's reeled off one summer hit after another, even surviving the horrible dud Wild Wild West.
5 Things:
1. Was offered the role of Neo in The Matrix; he turned it down to make Wild Wild West because he wanted to do a soundtrack
2. His teachers nicknamed him "Prince" for "Prince Charming"
3. He and partner Jazzy Jeff received the first-ever Grammy award for Best Rap Performance for the song "Parents Just Don't Understand" in 1989
4. He refrained from ever using profanity in his music after his grandmother expressed disappointment in one of his early songs
5. He's fluent in Spanish
Quote:
"I don't spend a lot of time looking at the big picture. I never really saw this, but I always knew that if you want to have a good week, the first thing that you do is start by having a good day."
