Over the years, tons of celebrities have collectively bashed the Kardashian Klan for being talentless, on top of directly criticizing the family’s infamous sex tape kitten, Kim Kardashian, for exploiting herself for fame.
And just recently, Will Smith himself has joined the bandwagon… Except, he did it eloquently.
In an interview with New York magazine’s June 2013 issue, where he was joined by his son Jaden Smith (they were promoting their new movie, “After Earth”), the Hollywood actor was faced with a ridiculously difficult question involving the reality TV family.
The interviewer asked Jaden, who is currently dating one of the Kardashian children:
“It’s been reported that you might be dating Kylie Jenner. The Kardashians have treated their fame as the family business. Do you guys see yourselves as similar or different?”
This query caused Will to laugh and cover his son’s mouth to stop him from answering. But Jaden muttered:
“I’m trying to understand.”
Will responded:
“Don’t. You know, he’s never had to, to deal with those kinds of questions.”
He added, mimicking:
“So how do you think your life is similar or un-similar to people’s names in Calabasas?”
On a more serious note, Smith explained:
“For our family, the entire structure of our life, our home, our business relationships—the entire purpose is for everyone to be able to create in a way that makes them happy. Fame is almost an inconsequential by-product of what we’re really trying to accomplish. We are trying to put great things into the world, we’re trying to have fun, and we’re trying to become the greatest versions of ourselves in the process of doing things we love.
