Happy birthday, Jada Pinkett-Smith! The ageless actress and philanthropist turns 43 today—nope, we can't believe it either! The Maryland native made her first foray into acting with her role as a college student in the sitcom A Different World. Since then, Smith has gone on to try her hand at producing music videos, TV shows, and movies—most recently working on Rape for Profit, a documentary that explores human trafficking. Up next for the A-lister? A starring role on the much-buzzed about series, Gotham, which premieres this fall.
