I don’t know why, but this totally shocked me. And makes me a little sad, not gonna lie.

‘Wholesome’ Hollywood couple, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, have revealed that the secret to the success of their 11 year marriage is that they have an ‘open relationship’. Speaking to Reveal magazine, Will had the following to say:

“Our perspective is, you don’t avoid what’s natural and you’re going to be attracted to people.” he says.

“And if it came down to it, then one would say to the other: ‘Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now, I’m not going to if you don’t approve of it’.”

The 39-year-old star explains that the couple’s open policy has been in place from day one of their 10-year marriage.

“In our marriage vows, we didn’t say ‘forsaking all others’. We said ‘you will never hear I did something afterwards’. Because if that happens the relationship is destroyed.”

Other things that Will says are important in his relationship are keeping in shape for his “little firecracker” Jada, the “look in her eyes”, and communication.

“And lots of sex makes for a good marriage too!”

Will Smith teamed up with DJ Jazzy Jeff at the Hancock premiere after party in Los Angeles on Monday night to show fans and friends he can still rap.

After performing a brief medley of hits while hosting the Nelson Mandela 90th birthday party in London on Friday, Smith gave a repeat performance at the Hollywood High School, where 1978 movie Grease was shot.

The former hip-hop partners performed on a stage decorated with wrecked cars and prison cages.

Among the hits Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff performed were the theme from TV show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

The highlight of the show came when model-turned-actor Tyrese Gibson joined Smith onstage for a version of Getting’ Jiggy Wit It.

Bosses at a school funded by Hollywood actor Will Smith have denied students are to be given lessons in Scientology.

The Independence Day star is a close friend of outspoken Scientologist Tom Cruise and was recently forced to deny rumors he too has enrolled in the Church of Scientology.

And Smith, who has founded the New Village Academy in Los Angeles along with his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, was also rumored to have instructed teachers at his new school to preach the controversial faith to pupils.

But academy director Jacqueline Olivier has denied the allegations - insisting the school will not focus on any religion in particular.

She says, “We are a secular school, and just like all nonreligious independent schools, faculty and staff do not promote their own religions at school or pass on the beliefs of their particular faith to children.”

The school is due to open in September.

Will Smith defends his pal Tom Cruise in a new interview with USA Today.

He said the criticism Cruise, 45, has received for his Scientology faith has been “painful for me to see. I’ve met very few people committed to goodness the way Tom is.”

The Hancock star, 39 — who was rumored to have converted to Scientology after speaking out about the controversial religion — was raised Baptist and said he remains Christian.

“We disagree on a lot of things,” added Smith, who attended Nelson Mandella’s 90th birthday in London on Wednesday. “But even with different faiths and different beliefs, at the end of the day, goodness is goodness.”

He said that their friendship thrives on rivalry.

They currently compete to see who can sign autographs longer.

“It’s hard to beat that dude,” Smith said. “He has another gear. He did two-and-a-half hours in France for Mission: Impossible on the red carpet. Now when I go to France, people will say, ‘You know, Tom was out here for two-and-a-half hours.’”

He also opened up about raising his children Willow, 7, and Jaden, 9 (whom he had with wife Jada Pinkett) and son Trey, 15, (from a previous marriage).

“The kids can do anything they want, as long as Daddy thinks it’s funny,” he says. “And artistically, that’s where you need to be, too. You have to find the humor in things.”

The same rule applies to tabloid rumors about his life.

“You have to let that roll off you,” he said. “There’s a natural narcotic my brain must pump, because negativity doesn’t last. It’s strange to play a guy like Hancock, who can’t find something to feel good about. That’s the opposite of who I am.”

Will Smith has warned his wife Jada Pinkett Smith that her demand he takes time off from acting will leave her exhausted in the bedroom.

Pinkett Smith has begged the 39-year-old to take a break when he ends his world tour promoting new movie Hancock.

He says, “I’ve been working a lot the last couple of years. My wife has said we have to take the next five months off. I enjoy my job, I really enjoy working. She might need to be prepared to have lots of sex.”

Will Smith is reluctant to star in movies that aren’t big-budget blockbusters - because he’s not sure if such projects would succeed in the box office.

The actor has made a name for himself with lead roles in high-grossing action and sci-fi hits like Men In Black and Independence Day.

And he admits he is afraid to stray from his trademark genre in favor of more dramatic films.

He says, “I fear that if I don’t do that ‘Will Smith’ thing, then it won’t be successful.”

But the 39-year-old is confident his best work on the big screen is yet to come.

He adds: “I think the next four or five years are going to be my innovative prime.”
