Will Smith is someone who can be labeled as a typical Gen Z despite not being one. Not only is the Aladdin actor goofy, but also quite active on social media with his shenanigans. Moreover, the actor has dabbled in things more than just acting. Starting out as a rapper, the actor transitioned into acting at a turning point in his personal life. All of this earned him well-deserved fame from all the hard work and a place in the fans’ hearts which a recent gesture is proof of.

After all these years, the actor puts his fame to good use. And recently, the actor took to social media to appreciate a Brazilian artist who paid tribute to this Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

The After Earth actor shared stunning pictures of the streets of Goias, in Brazil. Walls were covered in gorgeous spray paint wall art which Smith posted a reel about. Featuring on the first slide was the Emancipation actor in his The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air era. Apart from the first video feature, all the other wall art featured stills from random streets in Goias. The Pursuit of Happyness actor also credited the artist behind the beautiful work, Fábio Gomes Trindade. 

He added in the caption, “I am honored and always impressed with their work! I love the beauty you bring to the streets of Goias. What’s up Brazil?!” The original Portuguese captions won all the Brazilian hearts. The most attractive feature adding to the vibrant colors was the perfect flora acting as the hair for the pictures. Smith’s portrait was paired with a dark green bush resembling an afro. Similarly, other portraits were colored to blend with the afro-hair-type flora on top of the walls.
