LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

According to box office superstar Will Smith, he’s so big, any member of his family can have a hit.

“Put any Smith in there, it’s No. 1,” he joked to Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson at the “Seven Pounds” premiere in LA on Tuesday.

Will’s son, Jaden, stars alongside Keanu Reeves in “The Day The Earth Stood Still,” last weekend’s top-grossing film.

But Will said he has to make sure his kids – already following in Dad’s big footsteps – keep their egos in check.

“[Jaden’s] just well adjusted. Willow is the one. That’s the one I have to keep my eye on — Don’t let her get to No. 1!” Will laughed.

Despite his success, even Will gets embarrassed, and what had him tongue-tied on the red carpet was talking about using his tongue in his sexy “Seven Pounds” love scene with Rosario Dawson.

“I think that’s the first time for that one,” he said. “We kept it simple.”

“Any time you see Will Smith’s tongue, it ain’t simple,” Shaun responded.

“It’s embarrassing,” he said. “[But] I felt good about it.”
