Will Smith is planning to take a break from acting to return to his music career. The 'I Am Legend' star - who has been nominated for Oscars for his roles in 'Ali' and 'The Pursuit of Happyness' - is planning to perform some of his most famous hits, including 'Miami' and 'Getting' Jiggy Wit It' when he goes on tour next year.
He said: "I'm not going to be bringing out any new music but I will be going on tour with my old music next year - I'm looking forward to it."
Will added that he loved starring in horror film 'I Am Legend' because it allowed him to explore a different side of himself.
He said: "I realised that I have been neglecting my feminine side, and starring in this film and being by myself all the time allowed me to explore that side."
WILL SMITH is reluctant to play a villain on the big screen - because it would conflict with his natural instinct to make people laugh. The Oscar-nominated actor - who shot to prominence in hit TV sitcom The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air - has stepped away from comedy to star in such movies as Ali, The Pursuit Of Happyness and I Am Legend, but he insists funny films remain his top choice of work. And he'd only ever contemplate playing the bad guy if the role carried an important message. He tells British magazine Empire, "I enjoy inspiring good feelings, that is fun for me. Comedy I would say is my most fun. How people react to Hitch and The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, there is nothing that matches that. "I'm sure there is a bad guy at some point that has the right message. Scarface had the right message about power and drugs and it showed you exactly where that mess was going to end up."
