comments: Will Smith, "Prince", who earned the nickname because of his ability to charm his way out of nearly any situation, has charmed his way with his talent into the center stage. Chosen as one of People's 50 Most Beautiful People in the World, Will has had a successful film and television career already, and has had great success as a rap artist also, winning a Grammy for "Summertime". Currently married to Jada Pinkett, he has a son, Willard Smith III, now 6, and newest addition, Jaden Christopher Syre. Proving that he is more than his Fresh Prince character, Will has starred in the last two summer's biggest blockbusters. Look for him in Enemy of the State, now out on video, a film he was reported to have been paid a cool $14.5 million for. Finally, a salary close to Leo's for someone who can deliver the boxoffice numbers. Way to go, Will! Out now and doing great at the box office: Wild Wild West.
