Ozzfest 2005: Will Smith May Join Wife Onstage During Wicked Wisdom's Performance
(Source: Blabbermouth.net)

ContactMusic.com has issued the following report: Jada Pinkett Smith is set to infuriate heavy rockers even more as she considers including hip-hop husband Will Smith in her Ozzfest tour plans.

Ozzfest headliner Ozzy Osbourne caused controversy earlier this month when he added the actress' metal group WICKED WISDOM to the touring festival.

Enraged fans suggested the move would cause a riot when they sent hate mail to the Ozzfest web site _ and now Pinkett Smith plans to add insult to injury with an idea to bringing her husband onstage.

She says, "We're thinking about it. He's really become a real metalhead lately. He fell in love with OTEP the other night, so that was really interesting. He wanted to get in the pit.

"Now he's all excited and wants to be down with it."

Whether or not the Ozzfest dates come off for the Hollywood couple, Smith will join his wife and her group when they tour Europe in November.

ok....

I don't mean to ruffle feathers....

but do you think people are pissed because Jada's black?
and yes, Will's carreer as a musician is ridiculous.

but jump back for a second....

is this because they are not the "typical' metalheads? (ie: white)

I mean, living color is one of the only all black metal bands that have defied the "stereotypes", and there are very few black musicians in any metal/hard rock bands.

it's got to be daunting to be African American and trying to break into a predominantly white culture phenomenon.

(I myself am experiencing this myself with my band)

and has anyone heard her music or are all of you just blanching at who she is?

let the flaming begin!

i hear where you're coming from, and i don't doubt that its a factor, but i think its more of a celebrity thing.

they'd be fuming just as much if it were jennifer anniston and brad pitt (ok, old example) or jennifer garner and ben afflek. etc.

Nope. It's because she's false metal, duh.

No I think it's because it's Jada Pinkett Smith, not because she's black.

There are quite a few black musicians in the metal scene who get lots of respect (Killswitch, GodForbid, Suffocation to name a few). I honestly don't think the majority of metal fans give a crap about race, only good music.

I should also say that I'm extremely sympathetic to any kind of set-back in life. To pull my own card, I'm Jewish.

Aint about race. Living Color's a great example you made - No one ever bitched about them in Lollapalooza or whatever big tour they were a part of back then.

Jada's extremely wealthy and a power player in Hollywood, though. The whole farm of Hollywood types bringing up their own bands (her, Lohan, Russel Crowe, Keano, etc, belch) are just an irritating sort. It reeks of false priviledge and that's why it's fun to sling a wad of spit at em.

just like they fumed when Osbournes shit was being consumed by the pre-teen masses just a couple of years ago....this is all so funny.
