'I’m going to use that, I like that idea.' Griffin also appears to be reigniting her long-standing feud with Will Smith. The controversial comedian claimed the actor gave her the cold shoulder when they worked together decades ago—years before she would go on to slam him for his infamous Oscar slap.
During Tuesday’s episode of her Talk Your Head Off podcast, the actress recalled her early days in Hollywood when she landed a guest role on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in 1990. 'I'm friends with Sharon Stone and one of the things I do to torture her is adding her to random text chains with people she doesn’t know,' the Suddenly Susan alum, 64, told Us Weekly. Seen in 2015 'I have her on four text chains now, and she keeps side-texting me and says, "I’m going to f**king kill you.
Stop adding my phone number to people I’m never going to meet."' Seen here in 2004 During a November 2024 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Griffin explained how the prank all came out. Seen here in 2012 But according to Griffin, Smith, then a rising star, completely ignored her until the moment they filmed.
'This was the first big gig I had,' she said, adding, ‘He did not talk to me until show day.’ Griffin explained that the episode was shot before The Fresh Prince had even premiered, at a time when Smith was primarily known as a rapper. She explained that Smith had 'ignored her all week because he’s launching a gigantic show.
' ‘When I finally got to talk to him on shooting day, which was Friday, I said, “What would you like me to call you, Fresh Prince or Will?” And he said, “You can call me Will,”’ she continued. 'So I did, and I was, you know, nervous around him, because I’d seen all his videos, and Jazzy Jeff was there for a day, which was great, and the live audience went crazy when they saw Jazzy Jeff. He may have even DJ’d, if I recall correctly.
’ While she acknowledged the pressure Smith was under as the face of a brand-new show, she claimed he was distant all week, only warming up when cameras rolled. ‘He really took his time to kind of get to know me a little bit,’ she said. 'And he was asking about me and helping me relax.
'My new favorite hobby is that every time Sharon Stone blows me off for a dinner date, I add her to a random text chain,' the comedian revealed, adding, 'And Jimmy, she, like, wants to kill me' 'I didn’t tell him I was nervous, but I think he could tell that I hadn’t done a show this big before.’ The resurfaced tension between Griffin and Smith follows years of her publicly dragging him over the 2022 Oscars controversy, when he stormed the stage and slapped Chris Rock. Ahead of the 2024 Academy Awards, Griffin reignited her criticism by posting a throwback clip of Joan Rivers slapping her during a roast, joking, ‘Joan and I walked so Chris and Will could run.
