WILL SMITH'S PAST CONTINUES TO REAR ITS UGLY HEAD
By EMILY HUTCHINSON
It's safe to say it isn't the best time to be on Will Smith's PR team, as the actor has faced an avalanche of resurfaced footage in the wake of his Chris Rock slapping incident. The latest is a 2010 appearance on Spain’s "El Hormiguero."
The clip shows Will, his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, and their son, Jaden Smith, chatting with Pablo Motos as he gushes to Jaden about his bright future. Motos then turns his attention to Jada, to which Will warns him in Spanish, "Pablo, also careful with the words for my wife, okay?" as he puts his arm around her.
A press junket appearance video of Will promoting "King Richard" in November 2021 has also gone viral. It shows Will teaching a young fan named Chris (not Rock) how to do fake movie slaps.
Even then, that’s not all. A video has resurfaced of Will on the red carpet at the premiere of "Men In Black 3" in Russia, in which he got physical with a reporter who hugged him and then tried to kiss him on both cheeks.
