Tom Cruise failed to attend his son's first movie premiere. The actor decided against going to the "Seven Pounds" premiere in Los Angeles - which features 13-year-old Connor's big screen debut alongside Tom's close friend Will Smith - in order to continue promoting his own movie "Valkyrie" in New York, much to the shock of friends.

A source is quoted on website MSNBC as saying: "It comes as such a surprise. When Connor was filming 'Seven Pounds' Tom was so excited and proud of him."

Will Smith's wife Jada gave him advice before he shot a sex scene in new movie "Seven Pounds." The married actor - who plays an IRS agent who changes the lives of seven strangers in the new film - found it difficult to cope with the saucy scene and so turned to his spouse for tips.

He revealed: "Jada said, 'Listen, I know you're uncomfortable, but you better not embarrass me.' She said, 'When you do that love scene, you better show 'em what you're working with!'"

Jada Pinkett Smith says her children - both under 11 - manage their own money. The "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" actress insists her children pay their own way, and she acts as banker to daughter Willow, eight, and son Jaden, 10.

The children are already earning their own money as actors and have both starred alongside their father Will Smith in hit movies.

Jada Pinkett Smith won't work with her husband Will Smith because she "wants to stay married."

The "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" actress - who earlier this year stepped behind the camera for her directorial debut with "The Human Contract" - believes the couple's relationship would struggle in a professional environment.
