Brandon always finds warm words for his mother, when he posts the picture of her on his Instagram page. Her maiden name is Walters. She comes from Louisville, Kentucky. Vickie is the daughter of Barbara Dean Walters. She grew up with 5 siblings.

It was Vickie, who discovered Brandon’s talent for acting. She started to take him for auditions. Nowadays, the woman prefers to stay out of the limelight. Nevertheless, she follows her son’s career and is so proud of him.

Brandon Mychal Smith’s smile is not the first reason why we love him. The first one is his incredible talent in acting. He debuted on the big screen in 1998 and since then he adds at least one new movie and TV show to his resume. The most popular projects, where Brandon Mychal Smith participated, are “The Ron Clark Story” with Matthew Perry, “Gridiron Gang” with Dwayne Johnson, “She’s All That” with Rachael Leigh Cook, and many others.

He was born on May 29, 1989, in Los Angeles, CA. Brandon was an active and creative child. He participated in commercials since he was 8. The boy studied at Escuela de Montessori Elementary School. When his career took off, he became homeschooled. At first, Brandon gained popularity as a Disney star. He featured on the episode of “That’s So Raven”, and then played the recurring role on “Phil of the Future”. In 2006 he got his first Young Artist Award nomination for the role of Tayshawn, the talented young master, who was adopted by a cruel bad-natured father in “The Ron Clark Story”.

Despite his popularity as a child star, Brandon decided to take a pause in his career and spend the final year of high school like any other teenager – in the classroom at the desk. He wanted to have such an experience in his life – to study like a typical boy and then to visit a prom. After school, he attended Hampton University for a year and then returned to his career as an entertainer.

In addition to his acting projects, he also gained some kudos as a musician. He performed the song “Party Up” for the film “Starstruck”. Besides, he participated in the TV show “Skating with the Stars”, which he had to quit because of health issues. At the same time, Brandon was very good at skating. He tells, that he was an active and very skillful roller skater in his childhood, and that experience helped him on the show.

In 2009 Brandon dated Maggie Castle, his Starstruck co-star, but their relationships turned to be very short. In 2012-2016 Brandon was romantically linked to a model Jasmine Tookes. Nowadays, the actor is officially single. He tells that he has no specific demands for his future girlfriend. The only thing, which can annoy him, is if she gets an alcoholic drink during the first date.
Brandon’s first screen job was a role in the Nike commercial. There he appeared by the side of the internationally popular golfer Tiger Woods.
In July 2017 Brandon was arrested for driving under influence. He ignored the Stop sign, and that’s why the policemen asked him to get out of the car and take the alcohol test.
