Jada Pinkett Smith Opens Up About Addiction
Jada Pinkett Smith — who just turned 42 this month – took to Facebook to reveal that she’s suffered from “many addictions, of several kinds.”
Always insightful in her Facebook posts, she writes:
Best (shirt) I ever had: Drake performs with Jaden Smith’s face on his chest
In case you weren’t aware, Drake “started from the bottom.” The shirt he wore over the weekend could not better affirm that he is now “here.”
Drake wore this shirt bearing Jaden Smith’s face during his performance of “Hold On We’re Going Home” at the iHeartRadio Festival in Las Vegas on Saturday night. If you caught the VMAs, you may recall this as the face Jaden maintained for the duration of Drake’s set.
That’s right: Drake turned Will Smith’s extremely famous son’s expression of stunned admiration into a shirt. And wore it.
JADA PINKETT-SMITH SPEAKS ABOUT THE OPEN MARRIAGE RUMORS
Jada Pinkett-Smith addresses “the most persistent” rumor in a new interview with HuffPost Live: that she and husband Will Smith have an open marriage. No, I think people get that idea because Will and I are very relaxed with one another,” the actress says when asked about the speculation — before going on to reveal she’s told “always told Will, ‘You can do whatever you want as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror and be okay.’”
“Because at the end of the day, Will is his own man. I’m here as his partner, but he is his own man,” she explains. “He has to decide who he wants to be and that’s not for me to do for him. Or vice versa.”
Pinkett Smith, who has been married to the Oscar nominee since 1997, also says her hubby is her “best friend,” which has made their marriage easier. I don’t think it’s easy to be married to anyone. I think that you have to go into a relationship knowing — especially when you’re dedicating to someone for the rest of your life — this is a life partnership,” says Pinkett Smith.
She adds, “He’s my best friend. He’s been by my side through some of the most difficult parts of my life. And so that’s something you can never take away.”
“One thing is for sure: I love him deeply,” Pinkett Smith says.
