VIDEO: Will Smith Does Crying Game on ‘Oprah’

Nov 7, 2008 at 1:09pm

America’s top action star Will Smith actually admits he shed tears upon hearing Barack Obama had won the Presidential election.

Will went on Oprah Winfrey‘s show Thursday to promote his new film Seven Pounds. But when talk moved to Obama, “O” asked him if he cried upon the Illinois senator’s win.

Check out the knee-slapping hilarity below:
