Will Smith on the receiving end 

While promoting their DC film in 2017, Will Smith and Margot Robbie made an appearance on the BBC’s latest episode of Playground Insults. The Barbie star did a marvelous job in insulting her costar, as she didn’t mince her words. She started the show by pointing out how Smith’s ears stick out so much that they can be used as antennas for Wi-Fi at her mom’s Australian house.

The insult prompted Smith to retaliate with a mom joke, but he stopped himself due to a warning by the actress, “Don’t you talk about my mom. She’s going to watch this.”

Following the advice of his co-actor, Will Smith tried to control his tongue as much as he could. However, towards the end, he went into the forbidden territory and made a joke, saying Robbie was talking so much negativity about him as he slept with her mother. The actress took the insult in the game spirit as she was quick to come up with a reply saying, “Yeah, well, she didn’t even bother to call you back. She thought your nickname was Big Willie but turns out (laughs), she felt so misled by that nickname.”
