i know the intro was hilarious! and i was just watching the movie earlier lol...the Fugees snapped! Lauryn's doing her thing

my latest Will wallpaper, it's only 800 x 600, i meant to make it bigger: let me know if you all like it, and i'll do more if you want :2thumbs:

i noticed the same thing julie, i was thinking maybe they'd add more pics today or something though, Will was @ a couple other events over the weekend....also on BET they're doing "bet awards 05 update" commercials and promoting a surprise performance, so it could be JJFP, who knows? *people with BET, be sure to watch "Access Granted: Behind the Scenes @ the BET Awards" tonight :2thumbs:

yeah it's too late, lol those tickets sold out really fast...the BET awards are always done live Ted (as far as i know), i can't for the performances, they're the best

i think Ta could make a strong comeback, i don't know about on the partystarter remix though, but i guess it depends on the production of the song

i don't blame Jada for not looking "her best" or for not smiling, those are random paparazzi pics, it's not like they were @ a premiere or doing a photoshoot...i probably wouldn't be smiling either if i'm minding my business and people start taking my picture, i have a bunch of random pics of her and Will like that she almost never smiles @ the paps, just looks at them like they're crazy..i think Will was born smiling, he looks good in those pics to me too Michelle lol

Celebrity Mom Interview: Jada Pinkett Smith By Carrie Bell Madagascar's mama deals with all things toddler and tween. Jada Pinkett Smith was Tom Cruise's target in Collateral, and a freedom fighter in The Matrix sequels, and, in this month's Madagascar, she plays Gloria the Hippo. But at home, she's Mommy to Willow, 4, Jaden, 6, and stepson Trey, 12. She loved being pregnant. "I didn't experience complications and never felt that sick, but the anticipation right before the due date almost killed me both times. You just want to meet the babies by that point." Perfect timing. "Willow and Jaden are a little more than two years apart, which gave us time to recuperate but wasn't so far apart that we had to relearn everything. Now they're really close." Blending in. "We talked to Trey when we decided to have more kids and he was excited. He loves playing the big-brother role. I thought we might have some jealousy issues, but we didn't. If you promote family love, a positive vibe creates itself." Child-rearing philosophy. "I've never been an overly anxious mom and I don't baby them. I actually like the age the youngest are now -- they can talk and are experiencing things for the first time and really becoming themselves." The terrible twos myth. "That torturous period can last a lot longer than a year! I would say it's more like the terrible twos, threes, and fours. They should call it terrible toddlers. But eventually kids mellow out, their personalities develop and change, and with time, things get much easier." Bad boy and girl. "Willow and Trey are constantly into something so we had to come up with disciplinary tactics. I'm not one for physical reprimands, but I believe in time-outs. Willow gets things taken away from her a lot, like she won't get to watch any videos for a week. And I feel like, with girls, once you show a sense of disappointment, they want to straighten up fast. Also, being sent to their room by themselves gets to them. My kids hate isolation." That's entertainment. "We watch a lot of movies on weekends. There's some good stuff on TV that they can watch but TV is harder to control. With the constant advertisements, it becomes, 'Mommy can I have that?' Or, even the more troubling, 'Mommy, is Michael Jackson going to jail?' And how do you explain that one?" Three's company. "We're done. Not that I didn't like being pregnant or having kids, but we have so much going on it wouldn't be fair to the existing kids to spread ourselves any thinner." Working mom. "The idea that a mom is only a mom and has to give up her dreams is [crap]. I choose to share my dreams with my children and they support me and I think it helps them create their own goals." Habit formation. "I believe you establish the patterns you will live by as a grown-up when you are a kid. So we make rules that lead to good habits, such as limiting sugar intake during the week. You can have as much water as you want, but juice is a privilege earned after you eat dinner and finish your homework. Treats are saved for weekends and that makes them special. I encourage the kids to ride a bike before playing a video game or read a book before watching television. And our house is not toy heaven. We may be blessed financially but that does not mean the kids should be spoiled. These are not new rules -- these are all things my parents did with me." source: http://www.americanbaby.com/ab/story.jhtml...ith06082005.xml

there's a second edited version i just saw, instead of Will saying "no BET in the house" Jada points @ Trey and goes "it's that rap music" :rofl:

Details/ticket info are not firm, though the Web site www.charliemackcelebrityweekend.com is up.

:rofl: has anyone else seen the latest ad with Will and Ike Turner, it's too funny, but not as funny as the one with the family, IMO...Ike made him put on a Tina wig, lol Will's like "I don't want to" and he's like "put the damn wig on...yeah, you look just like her"

yeah this album is hot it's the only one i've had on heavy rotation besides Lost and Found..i go back and forth between the two

that was good i esp. like the ending,...real good

that was just for show... Jada says both she and Will are strict when it comes to manners and being polite, esp. to adults she says her kids have to say "yes ma'am, no sir" that type of thing b/c they demand that respect.....when she was on Ellen, ellen was saying how the kids reffered to her as "ms. ellen" when she met them with Will and how nice and polite they were, she says she's not used to kids treating her like that lol...i think people realize it was just a joke, and that's why they did it that way cuz it's not something you'd expect from them, so it made it that much more funny *Will says he tries to be tough but it's hard cuz trey's too funny and Jada says the kids try to test their limits sometimes but they know when to stop so they have no trouble disciplining them...i think Will's a great dad and it obviously shows, Just the Two Of Us happens to be a fave of mine

cool, thnx Tim......SO glad i've got the TVOne channel, they have lots of features of Will and Jada on TVOne Access as well, so i'm sure they'll have good coverage of the BET awards when the time comes

Will talks about his mom's initial reaction to him becoming a rapper: http://et.tv.yahoo.com/celebrities/firsttime/

yeah i saw that too AJ, it never gets old, i'm not tired of seeing it yet..i bet it was funny watching them make that promo, i can't wait for all the behind the scenes stuff to start

that'd be cool to see them in a movie together, i remember Tom said something about it after he'd hung out with Will and Jada when they finished shooting Collateral

"what we look like is we got some good god**** sense!" :rofl:

yeah that would be a good performance...i wonder what Will's gonna perform, i hope he'll do more than one song

i know! i was thinking the same thing look @ Jada and four versions of Will...i've been laughing @ it all day :rofl:
