Janet Hubert Will Smith
Janet Hubert Will Smith - Janet Hubert, the actress who played Will Smith’s mom on “the Fresh Prince of Bel Air”, has written a tell-all book ‘Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom’ where she talks about the years she worked in television. In it she talks… well… crap about Will Smith. She says that he had diva-like requests and he didn’t let anyone outshine him, read it below:
“Smith had people around him who made sure no one outshone him. I was happy to see Don Cheadle become the quality actor that he is, and often wondered how he made it past one episode, as Hilary’s boyfriend, being such a fierce actor. No one could be on The Tonight Show, that first season, except Will. And I mean no one.”
But this wasn’t only with actors, it also was bad for guest stars who did a really good job. She remembers the case of Countess Vaughn:
“I recall the lovely and incredibly talented Countess Vaughn coming to guest star. Oh my God! The day of table read, she was pee-in-your-pants funny. The writers were howling, we were howling, so I knew she was history - banished into the cornfield. Many years later, after she had her own show, I had to tell her when she asked me why. ‘Miss Janet why did I get cut from the episode,’ she asked? Simply, my darling, you were too good.”
Wow, many people have the idea that Will Smith is a very nice man, but it seems that he at least was an asshole! This is entertainment, double faces for everyone!
Those were the news on Jane Hubert Will Smith.
