Will Smith’s Family Time at “Hancock” Premiere

At last night’s Hollywood premiere of “Hancock”, Will Smith made a strong statement about his priorities by bringing his wife and kids along to the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre.

The “I Am Legend” hunk posed proudly with his family, sporting a black and white checked three-piece suit with a white button-up shirt and a black tie. Wife Jada Pinkett-Smith looked gorgeous in a sleeveless floor-length green evening gown. And their three kids Trey, Jaden, and Willow looked thrilled to be there.

In related news, the private school funded by the Pinkett-Smiths is getting all kinds of media attention as of late. Over the weekend, the LA Times published an article about the New Village Academy, discussing everything from its inclusion of Scientology principles in the curriculum to the global education policy.

FOX News reports, “According to the school’s mission statement, students ‘recycle plastic bottles at 10 cents per bottle. Once we have $100 (1,000 bottles) we have enough money to buy a goat for a village in Africa, which can ensure the survival of this village.’”

However, critics of this policy are arguing that rather than goats, rural Africans need schools, and the $100 per goat would be better spent on school supplies as well as shoes, electricity, irrigation, and medical supplies.
