Dad bod FTW.

The body positivity movement is about to embrace one of the biggest stars in Hollywood, as Will Smith just posted on Instagram that he is currently rocking a dad bod and embracing it.

The 52-year-old Fresh Prince of Bel-Air star shared a full-body snap of him on Sunday night wearing black booty shorts (we kid you not) and an unzipped windbreaker, exposing his stomach for the world to see.

“I’m gonna be real wit yall - I’m in the worst shape of my life,” he captioned the photograph.

The photo might be shocking to some who are used to seeing the action star looking lean, buff, and toned in such movies as Independence Day, Bad Boys, and Men in Black. But the man is 52 and a father of three, and there’s a pandemic on! Will Smith has the same body we all do right now, and let’s be honest, he still looks fly AF.

Will has 52.7 million followers on Instagram, and the comments section of his post was full of other celebs telling him to enjoy his bod no matter the shape or form it takes. The Roots bandleader Questlove commented, “This is the most amazing post in the history of social media.”

*Does the math* Yup, that comment checks out.

YouTuber Casey Neistat also praised the Hitch star, writing, “You’re a real one for this.”

Musician Diplo wrote, “Lfggg!” which we assume stands for “looking f***king good” and the extra G’s are for good luck (probably).

“You’re Will Smith!! You can be in whatever shape you want,” British singer-songwriter Sonna Rele wrote.

But probably our fave comment comes from former Fresh Prince bandmate DJ Jazzy Jeff, who wrote, “We’re twins….”

Aw. The bandmates who slay together, stay together.

Will and Jeff recently reunited with the rest of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air cast for a highly-anticipated TV special that included original Aunt Viv actress Janet Hubert.
