That rough patch Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith were rumored to have hit earlier this year is believed to have been caused because of their children.

Specifically TMZ has learned that the power-duo were not able to agree on if and when their children should be given their shot at stardom.

For his part Will Smith wanted the kids to jump right in and establish their acting and singing chops at a young age, while Jada Pinkett believed the children should be allowed to grow up before being thrown into the spotlight and everything it brings with it.

That same source says the couple are doing “wonderful” now and are happy with the way Jaden Smith and Willow Smith have handled their growing celebrity status.

During separation rumors it was believed Jada may have had an affair with Marc Anthony, yet the couple remained strong and in the public spotlight and for all intensive purposes they seem more visible to the public and happy now.

Will Smith’s reps have made no comment regarding the rumor.

Do you think something as silly as child stardom may have nearly broken up one of Hollywood’s most established celebrity couples in Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith?

Jaden Smith’s role in Karate Kid helped the movie generate more than $150 million in domestic and international ticket sales and while he was only 10 years old at the time of his contract, the young actor earned more than $3 million for his part.

According to the young stars contract he received two payments in the amounts of $900,000 and $100,000 for his role and then another $2 million when the film’s gross hit the $150 million mark.

It should be noted that $3 million is the minimum payout the star will receive thanks to additional in-contract perks that were worked into Smith’s payout.

It’s not Will Smith type cash yet, then again he was only 10 at the time of filming and Jaden is only 12-years-old today.

Not satisfied with vandalising shows like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, and Fraggle Rock. Hollywood studios seem intent on destroying another cheesy classic.

The 80′s appear to be the new gold mine for lazy studio execs. There is also talk that Zac Effron has signed up to do Footloose and they are remaking Robocop and Red Dawn, oh and Top Gun.

Back to the Karate Kid. Mr Miyagi is rumoured to be played by Martin Lawrence, so I guess he won’t be called Mr Miyagi. The plot stays the same though, bullied kid learns to defend himself via an eccentric mentor. Still, I won’t be considering it a proper remake unless the crane scene is in there.

I guess it is no surprise that Will Smith will be producing the film.
