I'm still trying to process this whole thing. If a week ago someone would of said this has happened, i wouldn't believe it. I think my main concern is Wills mental health. He's a celebrity so none of us here truly know him. But most of us here have followed him for 20+ years, we've listened to his music which is his soul and read his book which he spoke so much truth. I feel like i know him well enough to know this isn't him. This is Kanye West type ****. Its especially not him to do this on the most public stage in the world. I want to know what lead him to react like that, is there something we don't know. I'm not saying theres any conspiracy here, it just has to be more than defending his wife from a joke. I didn't really know what it meant to be a part of the academy. Turns out its like Visqo said, he just can't vote etc. He can still technically win oscars, however i don't think he will win anymore (he may even have his current one removed). I don't think this is career ending, but i think its career damaging. The other guys that got removed from the academy where sex offenders, Will slapped someone. Theres a big difference there! Theres people on social media that are very loud to criticise but most people i know in real life love Will. I think the fact that hes so well loved and that this is his first major mistake in his 30 year career means he can recover from this. I'm sure its gonna take time. Most peoples take on this is to get a funny meme or a tiktok out of it. I don't think many people are truly offended by what he did, just shocked as its out of character. I don't want him to do the red table talk, that show has damaged his reputation already. He needs to stay quiet a bit, reflect on why he did this and slowly build his career back.

i absolutely loved this book. The first part was incredible, there was so much i didn't know about Will, it certainly helped me understand him a lot better, really funny in some places too. It dipped a bit after MIB, then i found he lost me a bit as soon as he started talking about Willow and his drug usage etc, i was a bit dissapointed in that. I keep meaning to listen to the audiobook version of it now as i've heard he raps a bit in it.

oh cool, i enjoyed the other too because i'm a geek for these things.

Firstly, hi everyone, sad we couldn't be meeting under better circumstances. I've been unsure what to think of this all day and I've been looking at everyone's opinions. Firstly i was really dissapointed for me to wake up at 6am and look at my phone to see if he'd won his first Oscar and it took me 5 mins to find out because it was so overshadowed with what he did. When i first saw the clip i didn't actually get Chris Rocks joke because im not familiar with GI Jane. As much as dislike Jada at the moment, that joke was uncalled for. I've certainly heard worse but we don't know what shes been through and if Will has seen her really upset with the struggle with her hair. Will should not of slapped Chris though, especially live on television at the biggest award show in the world. These days you can get cancelled for that kind of crap, i'm surprised its actually 50/50 on peoples thoughts on him. The main thing i feel about this, i'm worried for Will. It mostly started seeing him in tears on the red table talk when they spoke about entanglement, that had to be hard. The public humiliation hes had since must be rough, especially when hes spent his career being so loved. Then he clearly had issues when i read his book, it just goes to show peoples lives aren't as perfect as they look. I think this was the straw that broke the camels back and i really hope he isnt stripped of his oscar over this. And i hope he gets help for his mental health, this reminds me of Britney shaving her head kind of moment. Its out of character for him to break his "Mr Fluffy" persona so publicly. Anyway, congratulations to him i suppose, King Richard was a great film.

We don't know the full story and it sounds like Will did some stuff too but i can't watch Jada in anything anymore, i've lost all respect for her and what shes says. Will just looks massively hurt by this, i don't know how they managed to recover from it tbh. I feel different about how they talk about love and marriage from now on, like its all a lie. I also agree with AJ, Will seems different with Jada, he seemed more like himself and the old Will we know and love when he was talking to Charlie and Jeff.

Hi guys, sorry it appears i haven't been on here since 2018, i'd like to say Ive been busy this year but obviously i haven't lol. This reunion had everything. I loved how we got so much backstage information, the tribute to James Avery was perfect. I'm glad Janet and Will made up, sort of. It was obviously very awkward. I'm sure Will wasnt perfect as like he said, he was 21 and had ambitions. Janet must of been difficult as the rest of the cast hated her too. Theres a red tablet talk where they go into this in more detail, which is just as awkward. I'm glad they talked about the family vibes they had. You could really feel that watching the show. It almost felt like as a viewer you were part of that family too.

2005 was a good year. Sad thing is, this is probably still sort of saved on my hard drive. But even after 13 years I don’t have the computer skills to get it working haha.

It’s not much but it’s currently in the chart at number 149.

It was pretty average until Will came out and brought the energy. Really nice to see him on a massive stage and enjoying himself. Hes trending on Twitter, nothing bad people are just shocked he’s there. Hopefully the song might chart a bit. Hes finished filming now so I’m hoping he’ll want to do music for a bit before he starts filming again.

I’m definately gonna get the tidal trial. Sounds like an amazing interview. We may have a bit more of a wait if he’s only half done. But what’s a year when you’ve waited 13 haha.

Another awesome verse. Getting high hopes for a decent album.

Hahaha step away from the football Will.

That’s a difficult one, I picked rap/RnB but I could also choose BWS era and lost and found rhyming. I guess my favourite stuff from Will is were he samples disco type tunes but has decent singers on there like Dru Hill and coko. I love his bragging style like jiggy but I also love it when he’s got something to say like tell me why.

Never thought I’d say this but he needs to listen to Jaden haha. Jeffs been telling him to release that freestyle and he did and it blew up, hopefully he’ll learn to listen to them.

I feel about this the same way as Get Lit etc. The song is pretty catchy but Will needs a bigger part. I guess the most exciting part is it’s the World Cup song, everyone around the world is gonna hear this. i definitely wanna hear more of the freestyle and freak accident style songs over this.

This is the best rap verse I’ve heard in years. I was getting worried Will wouldn’t be able to write as good as he used to but that’s better than some of his older stuff. Hes been so clever with building his Instagram and YouTube channels so people love him, then boom drops that on them. And the reponce couldn’t be better.

I’m so excited, you can’t ask for a bigger stage than that. I’m not mentally prepared for this haha. world cup songs are usually so uplifting, hopefully his lyrics will be amazing.

Yeah sorry, I asked Jeff, no Will. He said recording with him is coming but we’ve heard that before haha.

I don’t think I could cope with watching that live.

The key words are “new songs”. excited!!!

They’re millenials, just a bunch of zombies with phones haha.

Just watched the first one tonight (I thought it was a one off, didn’t realise it was a 10 part series). It was really good, pretty mind blowing. Looking forward to next weeks. If your a bit of a science geek you’ll love it.

I’m going. Tickets were just £5, bargain. I’m going with a couple of friends who have never seen him and are desperate to.

I was thinking holla back vibes too but I don’t know why. The longer Will leaves it the more I want the full version. It’s pretty clever how he built his social media and YouTube channel and then put this out there. Good times to be a Will Smith fan.

I don’t think a new song will be in the movie. Fans are gonna want the original music. I reckon it will be a song for the credits and they’ll stick it on the soundtrack. I don’t think a rap version of “a whole new world” will work haha.
