Will Smith

We know Will Smith as the famous actor who’s engraved his name in Hollywood’s blockbuster hall of fame, though some might know of his early struggles. Will started his entertainment career as a rapper in the ’80s under the name of The Fresh Prince. While Smith found some success in rap music, some trouble with the law tarnished his income leading to financial struggles.

Will’s breakthrough into acting finally came in 1990 when he began starring in the NBC television series The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The Men in Black actor has shown no sign of slowing down since then, and he’s got multiple notable movie awards to show for it.
