For those not in-the-know, Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith, hip-hop impressario Jay-Z, and Will’s Overbrook Productions have reached an agreement to feature Will and Jada’s stylista daughter, “Whip My Hair” singer Willow Smith, in movie musical remake of Carol Burnett’s 1981 box office hit Annie. (Epic Fail, mind you…)

But not everyone is ecstatic over the recent Hollywood exposure of Jada and Will’s spawns, including son Jaden, who starred in a remake of The Karate Kid just last summer. Bestselling author Terry McMillan has incited the wrath of Smith fanatics on Twitter after posting a series of disparaging remarks about the showbusiness fam on her feed this week.

Denzel Washington and Will Smith will work together for the first time on a remake of the Black Cinema classic Uptown Saturday Night, according to Cinematical.com.

Bill Cosby and Sidney Poitier starred in the original 1974 comedy, which centers on two friends who lose a winning lottery ticket on a night out and set out to recover it. Will’s production company, Overlook Entertainment, picked up the remake rights to Saturday Night in 2002. The former Fresh Prince star considered teaming up with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence before settling on double Oscar winner Denzel. Poitier directed the first Saturday Night, which featured Harry Belafonte and Richard Pryor in supporting roles.

On Wednesday, a very bald Will Smith and his 11-year-old son Jaden appeared at a studio in Beijing, China to begin filming the new movie The Kung Fu Kid.

Alfonso Ribeiro, best known for his role as Cousin Carlton on NBC’s hit ’90s comedy The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, made a guest appearance SUNY at Oneonta earlier this year, where he explained what really went down with the firing of the first Aunt Viv, Janet Hubert.

As some of you may know, Hubert is self-publishing a tell-all book, entitled Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom, in which she slams Oscar-nominated actor Will Smith as an egotistical jerk who is responsible for her failed career in showbusiness.

Will Smith is widely considered one of the nicest guys in Hollywood — unless of course you’re talking to Janet Hubert, the actress who played the Original Aunt Viv on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air for four seasons before being fired and recast in 1993. Read the rest of this entry »
