Remember *Aunt Viv* from” Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”? The  *original *Aunt
> Viv? Well *Janet Hubert* has a new  tell-all/memoirs out called 
*Perfection
> Is Not A Sitcom Mom* where she  talks about the un-princely conduct of
> former co-star *Will Smith*.  Here’s an excerpt:
>
> *“Smith had people around him who made sure  no one outshone him. I was
> happy to see Don Cheadle become the quality  actor that he is, and often
> wondered how he made it past one episode, as  Hilary’s boyfriend, being 
such
> a fierce actor. No one could be on ‘The  Tonight Show,’ that first 
season,
> except Will. And I mean no  one.”*
>
> *In an effort to drive the point home, Hubert also  recalled an incident
> where another actor was cut from a guest spot on  the show after being too
> impressive at an early rehearsal for that  episode.*
>
> *“I recall the lovely and incredibly talented Countess  Vaughn coming to
> guest star. Oh my God! The day of table read, she was  pee-in-your- gues
> funny. The writers were howling, we were howling,  so I knew she was 
history
> – banished into the cornfield. Many years  later, after she had her own 
show,
> I had to tell her when she asked me  why. ‘Miss Janet why did I get cut 
from
> the episode,’ she asked? Simply,  my darling, you were too good,” she
> recollected. 
>
>  She then goes on to detail her sudden and unexpected termination from
>  “Fresh Prince.” Back then rumors swirled that they simply wanted a  
lighter
> skinned mother to play the role. Looks like Vivian Banks is  ready to let 
all
> the skeletons out the closet <_http://theybf.http:_ (http://theybf.com/#)
