Now, here's a story you're going to love. The Smith family, who usually jet off somewhere exciting for Christmas, decided to stay home this year. That's right, Will Smith, the charismatic actor, revealed that he and his family are staying put during the holidays. And guess what? Since they don't typically deck the halls, Will, now 50, made a point to get his kids fully into the Christmas spirit before Santa Claus came calling.
“Let me tell you, Jada is absolutely losing it this Christmas! She went all out—bought every single Christmas light Costco had in stock and draped them all over the living room,” Will wrote on Instagram, sharing a hilarious video on Sunday, December 23. From the looks of the extravagant decorations Will showcased, you'd think this was their annual tradition! But no, it's a first-timer special. Check out the laugh-out-loud video below!

Now, while Will and Jada, the star of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and his stylish wife, were all about the Christmas cheer, their kids, Jaden, 20, and Willow, 18, weren't exactly on the same page. In the video, you see Will trying to rally his daughter to come enjoy the festive decorations he and Jada had so meticulously set up. But Willow wasn't having it.
“Dad, you're nuts. Seriously, stop,” the talented “Whip My Hair” singer tells her dad in the video. And it wasn't just Willow; Jaden, the rapper, was deep into a video game session when Will tried to get him to “put some Christmas clothes on right now!” Talk about a dad on a mission!
In a follow-up video, Will takes his Christmas game to a whole new level. Determined to get his kids into the holiday spirit, he pulls out all the stops. “I’m not liking this attitude about Christmas. You two are going to get into the Christmas spirit whether you like it or not,” Will declares, ready to get them singing along to the classic tune, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside.”

After what surely felt like an eternity of pestering, the kids finally gave in. Jaden and Willow, begrudgingly at first, joined their parents in their over-the-top Christmas outfits. And guess what? They ended up having a blast! Not only did Jaden, Willow, Jada, and Will participate, but they were also joined by Will's 26-year-old son, Trey (from his previous marriage to Sheree Zampino) and Jada's mom, Adrienne Banfield-Jones. The family of six wrapped up their festive video with a heartfelt shout-out: “From our family to yours, Merry Christmas!” Aww, how sweet and festive!
