Gossip: Will Smith
Smith's 53-foot trailer, which he is renting while filming Men in Black 3, blocked off an entire street in New York's SoHo neighborhood and drew complaints about noise and exhaust.
Residents of New York’s SoHo neighborhood forced Will Smith to relocate his gargantuan 53-foot trailer last week, following complaints about noise and exhaust, said the New York Post. The double-decker beast, which the star is renting for $9,000 per month while filming Men in Black 3, features 1,150 square feet of living space, marble floors, a fridge, and a 100-inch movie screen. Smith, 42, is also renting a nearby seven-bedroom apartment for $25,000 per month. “I love Will Smith, but this is about survival,” said local business owner Anessa Rahman, who said the bus blocked off the entire street.
