ADD QUOTES-
Janet: Kids who weren't even born when the show (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) started ask me when I'm going back, and I say, "Hello! It's been off the air for years!"
-
Janet: He (Will Smith) probably is responsible for my firing. He has a lot of clout. It's too bad that it's a black-on-black attack. I tried not to name names. I have more class than that. I wish Will would tell the truth.
-
Janet: (On Will Smith) If you're going to talk, tell the truth. He has gotten me fired from the show and now he is trying to snatch my career away from me (with his recent comments). I have not slandered him in any way. Anyone who stands up to Mr. Smith on "Fresh Prince" is gone. I reprimanded him constantly for being rude to problem and locking himself up in his room....
-
Janet: (On Will Smith) I hope Will will become a stronger, kinder black man than he has demonstrated.
