Janet Hubert Will Smith Diss:Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom

Janet Hubert Will Smith Diss:Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom – Janet Hubert who played Aunt Vivian in the Fresh Prince of Bel Air has written a tell-all memoir where she slams Will Smith for sabotaging her career.Hubert who was fired from the show in 1993 and replaced by actress Daphne Maxwell Reid will publish her book called “Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom” in early 2010.Here are some explosive excerpts from the“Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom”.
On Will Smith sabotaging his co-stars:

“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.”

On a guest star being too impressive an an early rehearsal:

“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.”

Seven Pounds Review

Seven Pounds Review – Seven Pounds in which star Will Smith,Rosario Dawson,Woody Harrelson and Barry Pepper hit theaters today.Seven Pounds Review is below.
Metromix Chicago:

The verdict: Is this a practical joke? Without spoiling anything, know that “Seven Pounds” is as monotone and manipulative as movies get, speaking almost completely in vague generalities (”I’ll make sure everything goes as planned”) to string you along until it decides to tell a story. Which it never really does. The script overflows with questionable emotional choices that insult concepts of life, death and love while refusing to analyze guilt and atonement–even stooping to imply that some people deserve to live more than others. Dawson’s performance is the lone bright spot in a film that’s a lie and a tease, and boasts possibly the most ridiculous death scene you’ve seen this decade.

“He gave out Scientology-like pamphlets at the end of the shoot.”
“It’s also been said that he and Jada are homeschooling their children in Scientology methods,” Morton insists.Will and Jada are also rumored to be financing the New Village Academy, a Scientology-associated school to open in Calabasas, California this Fall.“So between that, the pamphlets, the school in Calabasas, and his close friendship with Tom, it seems all the evidence leads one to conclude that he is a part of this organization.”
