There is an astonishing video of Will Smith’s first national television appearance, but it is continually scrubbed by the internet. It is on the Arsenio Hall Show, from when he was just a hit rapper known from The Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff and before his sitcom or movie career had started.

Already he was the very charming and inoffensive young man that he was known as for much of his career, and has Arsenio and the entire crowd laughing. Midway through the interview, Will and Arsenio begin playfully “snapping” on each other, exchanging light, humorous insults. After a number of jokes, Will Smith adopts a gay affect and tells Arsenio, “I could write you, read you, and throw you away!” – a phrase dripping in gay black slang that was still decades from becoming mainstream. Arsenio playfully responds: “It doesn’t even sound like you’re joking…”

This obviously flusters Will, and he begins a comical macho affect, still jokingly but clearly he is nervous. The crowd is still laughing, but then he changes subjects and starts talking about his fan mail.

“I get a lot of letters from gay satanists.” The crowd goes dead.

Arsenio sheepishly asks, do you really?

Will continues: “I swear, I get letters from gay devil worshippers.”

It just gets more awkward from there. If that is not signalling, I do not know what is. Will Smith, a man who for much of his career playing the Hollywood game and getting far in the industry by being likeable and inoffensive, spends his first national television appearance talking about gay satanists. No wonder it is continually scrubbed from the internet, while his numerous other Arsenio appearances are very easy to find. Luckily I have an audio rip, and will post it below.

I actually left a part out: “Very seriously, I’ve been getting letters from gay devil worshippers. And they write, ‘Love You’, and then put 666 under it. I’m serious! So I was thinking about this, and I’m like, ‘I’d like to be at a gay devil worshipper’s meeting’, y’know, to see what goes on in the meeting. It’s like, ‘Satan’s number one! Satan’s number one! Give me an S! Give me an A! Give me a boyrfriend!”

Signaling clear as day.

Speaking of which, “interesting” hand sign choice.

This is a very telling video about Will Smith. I had no idea. So now I scratch another actor of my Do Not Watch list.
