The Nutty Professor

WILL SMITH & JADA PINKETT SMITH: The former "Fresh Prince" had graduated to major movie star and ended his three-year marriage to first wife Sharee Zampino when he met, and then married, Jada Pinkett, tying the knot in 1997. The second Mrs. Smith was then basking in her own big ... morescreen arrival with "The Nutty Professor," which punctuated her transition from smaller TV and film roles to prominence. Son Jaden (who co-starred with his father in 2006’s inspirational "The Pursuit of Happyness") was born in 1998, followed by daughter Willow in 2000. Will Smith has continued to broaden his audience as a top male box office draw, while Jada Pinkett Smith has mixed her continued screen acting work (including two of the "Matrix" trilogy features and "Madagascar") with directorial assignments for music videos and gigs with her alternative band, Wicked Wisdom.
