Cardiff was buzzing on Sunday night as the city came alive with a series of massive bangs! 🎆 The culprits? None other than the legendary Will Smith who wrapped up his epic concert at Cardiff Castle with an absolutely stunning fireworks show. The sounds reverberated across the city, making it a night to remember for locals and visitors alike.
During the gig, Smith, famous for hits like “Gettin’ Jiggy With It” and movies such as Men in Black, took a moment to reflect on that infamous Oscars incident with Chris Rock. With heartfelt words, he shared, “My heart yearns to make people smile… A night like that has been eating me up.” He was clearly moved by the love pouring in from his Cardiff fans and even brought his Oscar on stage, expressing gratitude for their unwavering support.
The night was full of nostalgia and touching tributes. Will gave a shoutout to the legendary Sir Tom Jones, rallying the crowd with a spirited “Sir Tom Jones everybody!” and revisited cherished memories of his Fresh Prince of Bel Air days. A poignant moment came when Smith remembered his on-screen Uncle Phil, played by the late James Avery, imparting some wise words he received from him: “Every single person is having some difficulty with life. Life is hard for everybody.”
Smith also shared how James Avery took him under his wing when he was just a 21-year-old coming to terms with the fame of being both a rapper and an actor.
It was a night where explosive entertainment met heartfelt connections, leaving everyone with smiles and spectacular memories. 🎤🎆👑 #Cardiff #WillSmith #EpicNight
