Hollywood star Will Smith, know to local audiences as the Fresh Prince of Bel Air and as one of the Men in Black, is in Israel.

 

Smith arrived in the country under heavy security that would not shame top Mossad agents and managed to tour around without any media interference.

However, there is a limit to what one can do to remain anonymous when your name is Will Smith and a squadron of bodyguards is clearing your way through a city like Jerusalem.

 

On Thursday, Smith visited the stronghold of (religious) men in black, the Western Wall, and minutes later, pictures of him sticking his finger in the Wall flooded the Internet.

 

Another notable personality currently visiting the country is actor Ewan McGregor, who is here with his wife and their adopted Mongolian daughter.

He too is staying in Jerusalem, at the King David Hotel. For those hoping to bump into the star, he will be here till Sunday.
