Will Smith is one of the biggest names in Hollywood. Not only is he tremendously successful on the big screen, but he is equally strong in the music world.

Also, let's not forget his stint with television. I remember watching The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air all the time. But, did you know that the main reason he did the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was because he owed $2.8 million in back taxes and needed the money?

70% of his pay for the first 3 seasons of the show was garnished by the IRS. (avclub.com)

Isn't everything we do motivated by money? This seems to have worked out great for him in the long run though!
