Aunt Vivian From The Fresh Prince Has Just Unleashed a Major Rant About Will Smith

Sounds like he was not a nice chap in his heyday!

Uh-Oh spaghetti-o’s.

Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith have seriously angered Aunt Viv. Actress Janet Hubert took to her Facebook to annihilate the couple and their decision to boycott the Oscars in #OscarsSoWhite-gate.

In the four-minute clip, she calls out the pair for their production values and the decisions Will made in his youth. Including, a time when Hubert requested his support and he refused.

It gets fairly personal with Hubert calling some of the nominated actors “great actors” and quickly states “you are not”. “You are a part of Hollywood, you are a part of a system that is unfair” she continues.

Highlights of the post include:

“First of all, Miss Thing, does your man not have a mouth of his own with which to speak? Second thing is, girlfriend, there’s a lot of shit going on in the world that you all don’t seem to recognize. People are dying, our boys are being shot left and right, people are hungry, people are trying to pay bills, and youre talking about some motherfucking actors and Oscars. It just aint that deep.

Maybe you didn’t deserve a nomination. I frankly didn’t think you deserved a Golden Globe nomination with that accent, but you got one. Just because the world doesn’t go the way you wanted it to go doesn’t mean you can go out and then start asking people to start singing ‘We Shall Overcome’ for you. You ain’t Barack and Michelle Obama, and you need to get over yourselves”. 

The Smiths.
