Typical Blackwoman with that stink @ss attitude. Will did the right thing by firing this wanna be Diva. You don't give orders when you working for somebody else. Either you do with ask of you or don't. If you choose to not do what the ask of you, you can't be bitter if the find someone else that will. Dumb bytch though the show wasn't going to go on without her. Now look where that stong blackwoman/diva mentality got your dumd @ss. I know, A first clas ticket home. You dumb bytch!

First comment on here kinda harsh bt hey tell it like it is...She was a biitch and not much has changed since then i see

Ok So maybe the choice to replace her given her actions was the correct choice but their conduct afterwards was extremely unprofessional and inapropiate. She desevers some money.

@9:48

I'm gonna need you to shet the phuck up! Ball-less knee grows like you are the norm around these parts, no wonder many bw are finally thinking for themselves and flyin' the coop.

As for Aunt Viv, it's time to let it go.

I don't blame her...black women are always expected to bow down and kiss the black man's ass. No thanks, I'll pass.

She don't deserve JACK. Its SHOW BUSINESS. As many out of work actors there are if you get a part and are not the star. Do your job Tone your craft and move on after. None of the other actors who are still out of work after the show went off the air are suing. And trust me they need cash.

EVERYBODY NEEDS 2 GROW UP .THE NEW ONE WAS KINDA STIFF THO. ON ANY JOB U SOMETIMES GOTTA KISS A LIL ASS. ALL THOSE RE RUN CHECKS SHE MISSED OUT ON,BUT SHE HAD 2 STICK UP 4 HERSELF.IT'S EASY 2 SAY WHAT U WOULD DO SITTING ON THE SIDELINE,OH YEAH EVEN I KNOW EVERY SISTA AIN'T BITTER. THIS SOUNDS LIKE A WORKING SITUATION GON WRONG......MAYWOOD

Well...THIS Aunt Viv...was the best...That light skinned Aunt Viv did the character no justice.....

you wont go anywhere with an attitude

will smith seem like a broad type to do some BS like that

She looks like a bytch, now I know why Will smith dropped her azz.

Black women need to understand their position as females, you can't try to out Boss the Boss. You are a female, not a matriarch. When you become the big d_ck on campus then you can demand orders, until then stfu and play your role.

I love sistas but they have a lot of nerve thinking they can out d_ck a man and give out orders. f__k out of here.

@12:34pm and 12:52pm. I cosign Both of your comments. @9:48am There's nothing else left to say after that. I cosign your comments as well.

shes still getting those residuals so who cares

she was by far the best aunt viv and the pretty one

thats why i dont fool with will smith now, he seems shady

TYPICAL, SO TYPICAL. SO IF U ARE A BLK WOMAN AGREEING WITH WHAT SHE IS DOING YOU ARE LOST YOURSELF. THE WORLD WONT STOP JUST BECAUSE U DISAGREE WITH OTHERS. AND WHEN IT CONTINUES WITHOUT YOU, BE YOUR STRONG INDY SELF AND CONTINUE WITH YOUR STINKASS ATTITUDE AND DONT BE A WHINING CHARITY CASE. DUMBASS DIVAS!

why?why?why?!?!?!?!? are we talking about bw?

a lot of ya'll are plain lame slave mind ppl. you guna be told to dance by a 20 something year old when you 38??? if so you crazy n need a kick to ya as and your head. and ppl saying being in show biz ya'll never saw a set in ya lives or probably even a actor. she did the right thing oh and another thing did ya'll notice in the show this aunt viv was more educated then this one they dumbed down

Obviously...SHE was the problem cause no one else got fired.

She was the better Aunt Vivian, but this is a classic case of a black woman that thought her life could immitate her art. There's plenty of people in the corporate world in their 50's and 60's that have to answer to some "22 yr old kid" and kiss ass. It's called life get over it! Just because you play an articulate, educated, no nonsense 2nd head of household on TV, doesn't mean you get to pull that sh!t when the director says, "CUT!" SMH Black women can't get of their own way, which is why black men that are about something won't allow to get in ours. Will Smith was on his way to becoming the biggest and most powerful black man in Hollywood at the time. What did this fool think was going to happen???

...and before i forget @ 3:07 talking that slave mind bullsh!t you obviously have never been employed in a corporate setting. Hollywood is a business 1st. It's part of the reason California is the 5th largest economy in the world! In EVERY corporate environment you have young people giving orders to people old enough to be their parents regardless of race, if you want to continue to get a check, you play your roll as team member. I'm sure this DIVA didn't have to dance in Will's dressing room to be down, but she didn't have to be a b!tch about it either and fuq off evryone's good time. Anyone ever notice that after the show ended NOBODY had anything positive to say about her?

Point blank period at the time the world didnt revolve around her it revolved around Will & Jazzy Jeffs success in music and their transition into sitcoms & movies....so in my opinion Aunt Viv even though you were the better one, you needed to be dismissed it was no foul play involved just that tired ass attitude that BLACK WOMEN have ruined your chance....100!

@ 3:07 "You keepin' it real" ni99as crack me up. This is just another example of when keepin it real goes wrong. You going to pass up a check for 10-15K an episode on a instant classic because you don't want to work for a 22 yr old kid that built an empire around a show about urban black culture and put food on the table for countless black families employing black actors then and now (Tyra Banks ring a bell). Will and Jada are the most powerful couple in Hollywood and yeah that includes Brangelina too. U fuq-ing @#$%!!

thats a shame

she still talkin bout this shiiit?!! get a job please!!! dis brawd is crazy. do ya thing Will, Fuwk the haters.

Maybe just broken with a long-term partner or lost someone special forever. Maybe have been without someone special in your life for a long, dry period. Whatever the story is, you should end the lonely life asap. You may take ...................KissMillionaireS ... c o m a try. You dont have to be a millionaire but you can meet one

all i wanna know is why people keep bringin up the fact that shes a black women? what do that gotta do with the video? yall dudes sound bitter as hell

I think she is on all my children

she appears so difficult. Will is the star you are replaceable know your role and accept it or leave and die slow

that simple -- notice they said crumbling marriage even the husband couldn't stand her smh

WAKE-UP-NAGGA

HOW DID BLACK WOMEN COME INTO THIS? THIS IS ABOUT AUNT VIV NOT BLACK WOMEN....WHOEVER COMMENTED AND SAID SOMETHING ABOUT BLACK WOMEN ARE REALLY BITTER......

Miss Dee

WHEN WILL YOU LADIES GET IT?

THE REASON WE KEEP BRINGING UP BLACK WOMEN IS THE SAME "IM A DIVA, THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND ME" ATTITUDE THAT PROBABLY COST THIS WOMAN HER JOB. IS THE SAME ATTITUDE THAT DRIVES BLACK MEN TO OTHER RACES, ITS THE SAME ATTITUDE THAT KEEP OTHER RACES OF MEN FROM WANTING TO DATE YOU ALL.

STEREOTYPES DON'T JUST APPEAR OUT OF THIN AIR.

MOST PEOPLE FORM THIER OPINIONS OF BLACK WOMEN, FROM THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH BLACK WOMEN

SO IF THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE ARE SAYING YOU ALL HAVE NASTY ATTITUDES, MAYBE,........JUST MAYBE......THEY MIGHT BE ON TO SOMETHING!

NUMBERS DON'T LIE LADIES, THE WAY YOU HAVE BEEN DOING IT IS NOT WORKING FOR YOU.

how does she seem so irrational??? Wasn't she grown and pregnant??? Does that strike anyone in her situation? She basically stood up for herself and everyone is bashing her on here. Well maybe it wasn't strategically smart but I will not agree that she should have schucked and jived for a 'baby who is getting some media attention' on the set. It is so obvious by everyone's comments that you ASSUME Will Smith is innocent here. How do you know? And the angry black woman accusation is tired. A lot of you just don't want to call a spade, a spade.

She MUST be out of the business, bec. if not Will & his scientology bigwigs would have her blackballed for this. Notice no one in Hollywood even jokes about him.

On her end, it silly to think you can work if you aren't talking to the rest of the cast. But on the other hand, that show was horrible after she left-She was def. the strongest actor on the show. Too bad She & Will couldn't work it out.

P.S.-what does this have to do with being a Black woman? Im a Black woman and the fact that the people on this site are consistently so harsh towards their own women saddens me. Shout out to the real men out there, who know women

Regardless how people may have felt about the "original Aunt Viv", there's no reason to refer to her as a the "B-word". This only shows how disrespectful you are towards Black women and other women as well.

AUNT VIV IS STILL AN ANGRY WOMEN!!...... BOTTOM LINE? AUNT VIV HAD IT MADE BUT SHE WAS A WOMEN OF PRIDE TOO! SHE WAS NOT ABOUT TO KISS A 22YRS OLDS A-S-S!! SHE UNDERESTIMATED HIS POWER AND GOT THE SHOCK OF HER MOFO LIFE. SO NOW, AUNT VIV IS AN ANGRY WOMEN!!!!! END OF STORY

@10:26 im the first person that said what does this have to do with her being a bw, and im not a bw im a bm. also the majority of black men dont date other races. and according to your logic black men really are dumb lazy criminals, so gtfoh with that dumb sh1t u sambo ass n1gga.

I strongly recommend === BlackWhiteCupid * C 0 M === to you where I just found my interracial boyfriend! You know it is a great place to meet black men and beautiful women. What's kind of relationship do you want? ;)

I'd be pissed if they replaced me too SMH

Why does everyone keep acting like Black Women are the only ones who act like this? I've seen plenty of women from different races and ethnic backgrounds go around with a diva, the world revolves around me attitude.

I think the main issue she had with Will, was his lack of respect. She was his elder, and most people in general don't feel like they should suck up to someone younger than them.

to 7:41 on 10:28am---- you are so right and on point. when i saw the show she was angry. damn! i feel for the sistuh. but hey, will smith was the man back then and still is

guys this isnt a black girl thing shes just actin like some diva in hollywood BUT the other video of the black girl cursin out that white girl in mcdonalds..well thats a black girl thing

correction to above-----to the person that wrote on 7/28/10 at 7:41 am

Although she was the better Aunt Viv, I think it is high time that she let it go. It's been over 15 years and now she wants to come out with a book, she must be hard up for money. The best revenge is success.

will smith an't @#$%! but a lil black stupid ass @#$%!r someday somebody its really gonna sniper him down and when they do ima be looking at tv LOL all damn day long and anybody gotta a problem with my comment they can kiss my white ass

The old aunt viv was a better actor but the new aunt viv was much better looking. Not only was the new aunt viv more attractive, she was probably more pleasant to work with as well.

Will smith stated in an interview some years after the show
ended that she was difficult to work with even before the
pregnancy.

I'm a 38 year old strong black woma... blah blah blah Biatch. You're a unemployed SINGLE black female actor that was too stupid to realize that 22 year old punk kid would become the most powerful actor white or black in Hollywood. Stupid @$$ fuq'd off a career over some PRIDE; it's one of the seven deadly sins for a reason. He's this generations Sidney Poitier, James Earl Jones, Eddie Murphy, and Carl Weathers in one package.

Man it is some really stupid people out there and on here!! they don't even know they are stupid!! did I say that enough

It's called business.. never mind the attitude (that's colorless)!! contractually they need to pay her for her work and/or slander.. so what if they need to replaced her!! every situation in life is not mean't to last forever anyway...

If I were pregnant at 38 I wouldn't want to clown around because everyone is doing it or because Will Smith is the man we all gotta do whatever he wants, no, my job was to act and as a adult I don't have to play with a 22 years old boy that thinks everything should revolve around him, that is not the way in the business. In the entertainment business they are people who don't get along with the other but get the job done and there are respect for others. The producers or whoever didn't do a good job when having the cast disrespects her all because she didn't join the bang wagon, this was done out of favortism, that's all. Some might like you and some don't and when they see that the star of the show isn't happy they are gonna try to make him happy even if it means to fire her, now is it right? NO, it's not, but that's how it is sometimes. Look as I said it if I was pregnant I wouldn't do that either and yeah I would have left and move on I just take it as a lesson or just know not to associate with people like that or just pick a good script and just remember to do my job. For Will Smith who is up there with the hollyweird, well, that's him and I'm sure he knows what he was doing and it probably didn't bother him to have taken money from a person and have him/her fire so he can have what he wants, that's ok, Karma is a @#$%! and Will Smith will get his. Everyone loves Will Smith, but personally I don't like him for what he did even though that's his choice, one day he will fall one day he too will have nothing might have all of his money, but to be an honest black man, he is not and never will because of the type of person he was and still is thinking he is better than anyone and that's ok maybe it helps him in his movies to be like that, so go for it Will. As for her, trust me, she is fine she doesn't need money that bad and she is doing lots of work, it's just some of you don't know or care to, that's ok too, but she is fine and doing her thing she was just answering the questions that was asked of her in the interview for the program One on One, that's all it is not because she outright brought it up, she was asked a question in an interview, so please don't bash her for that you all sound so stupid, you just saw the program unless you weren't paying attention to it, then I guess that is why you guys say stupid things like that.

Who cares!!!

I think she played the game and lost. She was a diva and not recognizing that there's more to any job than just doing the work was naive of her. Given that it was not an ensemble show, but actually Will's show, she could have been friendlier. Now she's the bitter fired diva actress. She should have since written a new script for herself.

fuk yall negative comments da first aunt viv was the shyt!! she kept it real!! big ups to my strong black women!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont blame her at ALL! She was made to look weird on the show but HERE she is GORGEOUS!

this is only 1 black woman! Men who think all black women are evil/ have attitude are ignorant and need therapy for the brainwashing they have recieved

The show seemed to have lost substance (the younger daughter did not seem as smart; the older daughter had no hope of finding any serious direction in life)after Janet Hubert was replaced.
