Will Smith addresses social media lip-syncing criticism

Will Smith reacted to criticism on social media over his acting in the iconic show *The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air*. Fans pointed out that he often lip-synced his co-stars' lines while waiting for his own. This became a topic of discussion when he shared a humorous moment on Instagram with his former co-star, Tatyana Ali, who played Ashley Banks. In their conversation, Will admitted he did not realize he had this habit until six episodes into the series. He called the clips "terrible" and showed Tatyana a scene where he clearly mouthed her lines. They both laughed as he recounted how he was learning the entire script at the time. Will's performance in *The Fresh Prince* marked his acting debut. He shared how surprising it was that the show became so successful, especially given his early acting challenges. The sitcom has become a beloved classic since its debut in 1990, telling the story of a teenager from Philadelphia who moves in with his wealthy relatives in Bel-Air. Apart from addressing this criticism, Will has been busy with his music career. He recently announced an upcoming tour in the UK and Europe to promote his new album, his first in 20 years. The tour includes performances at unique locations, which have excited many fans.
