Will Smith — the new King of Hollywood held court in the Square tonight in a fitting finale to the 2007 premiere season. Roving spotlights, a red carpet with the film name emblazoned for passing spacecraft, hundreds of media, hundreds more screaming fans and no rain. Pretty close to perfect except for the icy blasts that mandate wrapping up warm — it is late December. It was a one mega-star night so its essential to capture the megastar. I had a great spot right opposite the entrance and my companions got into the swing too by getting Will to talk to us about his daughter Willow acting alongside him. I shook Will’s hand! So apologies for any gap in coverage. He spent lots of time with fans and media, returning to the fanline three times to make sure he\’d posed, signed and smiled with as many as yelled loud enough. Just to make sure all had seen him, he went onto the balcony, grabbed a microphone and thanked everyone again.
