Early Life, Family, Education and Charity Work

Jaden Smith was raised in a well known family in Malibu, California, the son of one of the most famous Hollywood actors, Will Smith, and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, who is also an actress. He spent his childhood with an older half-brother from his father’s previous marriage, Trey Smith, and a younger sister, Willow Smith, who is well-known as an actress, singer and dancer. Jaden went to New Village Leadership Academy (NVLA), a private elementary school co-founded by his parents, after which he was homeschooled due to his career.

Before he became famous, Jaden worked alongside his sister as a youth ambassador for Project Zambi and Hasbro, organizations which take care of children in Zambia whose parents have passed away from AIDS.

Regarding Jaden’s acting career, it began in 2002 when he had a cameo role in the film “Men In Black II”, after which he portrayed Reggie in the TV series “All Of Us”, created by his father, between 2003 and 2006. When the filming of the TV series was ended, his breakthrough came as he was pushed by his parents to make his debut film appearance in the role of Christopher in the 2006 film entitled “The Pursuit Of Happyness”, starring alongside his father. This role brought him the MTV Movie Award for Breakthrough Performance in the following year, potentially helping to add a considerable amount to his net worth.

Jaden also starred in the role of Jacob Benson in the remake of the classic film from 1951 entitled “The Day The Earth Stood Still” (2008), directed by Scott Derrickson, and his next major role came in 2010, when he featured as Dre Parker in the film “The Karate Kid”, starring along with Jackie Chan and increasing enormously his popularity. This role led him to win the BET Award for YoungStars Award as well as the Young Artist Award for Best Leading Young Actor in a Feature Film, both in 2010.

Recent Years
