YouTube announces new series with Will Smith and Alicia Keys

The platform announced the partnerships Tuesday in an online presentation to advertisers, revealing a slate of upcoming YouTube Originals series. Comedian Hasan Minhaj hosted and celebrities including CBS' "Late Late Show" host James Corden appeared. Miley Cyrus closed the presentation with a performance.

"This is the body that carried me through an entire pandemic and countless days grazing thru the pantry," he wrote in the caption. "I love this body, but I wanna FEEL better. No more midnight muffins…this is it!

"Songs in A Minor" featured Keys' debut single which sky-rocketed her success, "Fallin'." The song won the pianist three Grammys (song of the year, best female R&B vocal performance and best R&B song). "Songs in A Minor" took the category for best R&B album.

"YouTube has been a big part of my expression for kind of my entire career," she said. "You can really watch the evolution of who I am. It really kind of inspired me and it stated a fire that just became wild.

"I've just always really loved the idea of being able to create my own worlds that I feel visually represents sonically what I'm putting out there," she continued. "I could say what I wanted to say in the way that I wanted to say it. I definitely don't take it for granted."

Will Smith takes off his clothes to reveal 'dad bod' on Instagram

The star posted the caption alongside an image of himself wearing nothing but his underwear and an unzipped top. Smith left little to the imagination – showing off his ‘dad bod’ in all its glory.

Another wrote “Why you starting to look like Uncle Phil tho?”, in reference to Will’s late on-screen uncle in Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

One man even offered to train Smith, “Will, I’m coming to train you. For free, can’t have a legend looking like this.”

Lots of fans praised Smith for his realness, “That’s the funniest, realest (sic) thing I’ve ever seen. Way to change the façade of Instagram”.

Others speculated that the reason behind the award-winning actor’s new figure may be for a film.

Smith is thought to be gearing up to begin filming Emancipation . The story sees Smith portraying Whipped Peter, an enslaved person who emancipated himself from a Southern plantation and joined the Union Army.

The film made headlines recently when it pulled out of filming in Georgia, in the US, over new voting laws introduced to the state. In a statement to Deadline , Smith and director Antoine Fuqua said they felt “compelled” to act.

“We cannot in good conscience provide economic support to a government that enacts regressive voting laws that are designed to restrict voter access,” the statement said.

Will Smith is making quite the admission on social media

Will Smith is making quite the admission on social media. Gino joins FOX6 WakeUp with details. 




We are all Will Smith 14 months into the pandemic, and that's OK | The National

The film star recently posted a photo decrying his 'bad shape', and it's a reminder to smile and persevere in the face of uncertainty

That is what Will Smith did on his social media this week, posting a picture of himself with his torso on show.

While that's relative, of course, there is no denying that Smith's once-famed physic has changed of late.

As he said in previous interviews, that montage in the 1996 blockbuster was enough to change the path of his career.

It transformed perceptions of him from the lovable clown from sitcom The Fresh Prince of Belair to a bonafide leading man and action star.

As well the tragedy of having those we know succumb to the illness, the last 14 months have brought their own number of everyday losses.

From the early pandemic days of stay-at-home orders, closed restaurants and shuttered cinemas and parks, to today's yearning for mass gatherings and traveling abroad, the effects are still being felt far and wide.

While it's tempting to shrug it all off and be grateful – which we should, everyday - these things add up and the effects are pernicious.

For me, that resulted in a worrying drop in attention span, with a growing pile of unfinished books and half watched movies forever on my to-finish list.

Dodgers' Will Smith: Registers first career triple - CBSSports.com

The backstop appeared to be getting the day off with Austin Barnes starting the game behind the plate, but the team called on him to pinch hit in the ninth inning with a runner on second and the score tied 2-2. Smith wasn't able to come up with a clutch hit in that situation, but he remained in the game and got another chance to play hero with two runners aboard in the 11th. This time the catcher came through, working a full count before lining a two-run triple to right field. While he is hitting just .234 so far this season, Smith has posted a 12:13 BB:K and a .383 OBP. His .411 xwOBA ranks in the 92nd percentile leaguewide.
