I’m starting to think they are trying to play us at this point. Like some ole Derrick Jaxon and Da Naiah stuff. Maybe it’s all drummed up for us to be distracted.
What are you talking about? So when we listen to his music we are not letting him rest in peace? People who knew him and still talk about him is not letting him rest in peace? Kudos to Jada for keeping his memory alive. I enjoy hearing about the man behind the music. You don't speak for everyone.
@@wonderwalledit I'm tired of people keeping up false information and making fun of what he and Jada did in the past. Tupac has been going through a lot. He is dealing with dark times, and I feel sorry for Jada. Yes, she talks too much, but I can tell she is dealing with depression. People think it's funny, but this issue is sad about marriage, rumors, and what Jada wants.
Oversharing, codependency and narcissistic tendencies can be childhood trauma responses, when someone's grown up with an unstable parent. They want total openness, but end up oversharing and childhood neglect causes the person to overfocus on their own emotions.
I feel like will is hanging in there thru out all Jada's enbarrasing moments geared towards her husband I feel she knows all his dark secrets! Who want their book she already told enuff but come on now she's not gonna tell all! It's just not gonna happen
I really loved the 90s Jada from A Different World and Jason’s Lyric. She was beauty and fierce and demanded respect. It was in her essence. Idk who the Jada is today but she will always be one of the best actresses ever❤
It’s crazy how Life, but MAINLY the industry can strip someone of their Essence, their Soul, their BEINGS!!! .. it’s like some of them are Completely Different People almost on a Spiritual Level
It's ALL A GAME💯 They all are in on IT and ain't no telling how deep it is🤔 There were stories in the 2000s about all the swinging that was swirling between them and J.Lo/Marc Anthony,😳
I don’t like Jada but i agree with her on marriage. I was “forced” to protect my kids because it makes it easier for them and whatever happens : death, illness and other issues , the kids at least in-my country are protected under this contract with the state you live in. At least in Italy! So o felt pushed by our respective families. I tried and resisted but then hearing horror stories by solicitors friends and expecting our third one, i gave in. Now still going “strong …known mu hubby for 25 years, living together and started a family 20 years ago, married for 15 but still feel forced by society, family etc… to burocratically formalize the relationship. It is not a biggie i don’t think about it everyday, but i would have put the same effort without the contract, but that is me.
@@silviaetna9874 it seems that the children are worse off with their parents telling the world about their dysfunctional family. I wouldn't even want to see my mother on TV, or anywhere else, talking about her affair with the family friend. I guess nothing is sacred these days. The more ridiculous you are, the more money you make.
Familial pressure is not easy, particularly as a young person. But also, it is incredibly odd behavior that Will STILL married her knowing fully well she was miserable going into the marriage
@@LindaOliver-e8q agree 100% on this point.i was just saying that when i was young i was brainwashed by media and i did not have the critical thinking skills i havenow. So i did feel the pressure to get married while i wanted to be like destinies child song “independent”… are all the single ladies all the single ladies…i don’t think like that anymore i hav evolved but me and jada are one year apart. I get where she is coming from. I don’t know if she has evolved. That is all. Now my life is not my life. My priority are my kids. Their happiness and safety is more important than me. My family as a whole is more important than me, me and me again.
Respectfully disagree. Jada looks just like her mother, but both of the kids look like Will, even now. And…going to family THERAPY would’ve been 10000 times better than “Red Table Talk.”
@@s.malone2849I think Jaden looks more like Jada. Esp in that video dancing w Tupac. She looks just like Jaden there. Willow is a carbon copy of Will. Also look at their heights! Jaden is short like Jada. Willow is tall like Will. Think that’s why they are named accordingly
Exactly, I 'm from Baltimore also, Jada went to Junior High School with my Goddaughter and they still keep in touch, but yeah she most definitely is speaking the truth but regardless I still and always will love my hometown of Baltimore, Maryland.
Keisha Morris is a naturally stunning, highly educated, successful woman and ex-wife and close friend of Tupac. She has never written about him or exposed his private business. Neither has Kidada Jones Tupac fiance at the time of his murder at 25 years old.
Imo Jada is being delusional about her relationship with Tupac. I really think they were JUSY FRIENDS. You can look at their pictures from the past that screams WE ARE FRIENDS!! Besides this marriage is toxic. Jada and Will came from dysfunctional backgrounds. Real talk. I feel sorry for their children😢
Tupac did share about his hair loss, in older interviews. He stated it was do to the police beating him in the head. Stated that he suffered from hair loss and nightmares since.
Tupac was already engaged to his girlfriend Keisha Morris before he went to jail. His fiance moved closer to the prison so she could visit him daily. Jasmine Guy visited and was close friends with Jasmine Guy, too. Jasmine Guy was a really good friend of Tupac as we're other famous actresses and singers, and they have not shared their private stories with the public.
Why is it hard to believe PAC was dealing with multiple women lol ? Multiple women have come out and linked themselves to him romantically all while he was engaged . I believe he proposed I don’t think she would just make that up
People are so used to seeing toxic relationships. The fact that through the good, bad and ugly; Jada and Will support and love each other is such a foreign concept. That is exactly why there are so many toxic relationships. People don't work to improve nothing. Just move their toxic behavior from person to person. No one has any idea what Will has done behind closed doors. I applaud Jada and Will attempting to repair their relationship no matter the method, amount of time or the toxic people in their business.
People REALLY missed that part When Jada said “oh. You’ve gotten me back…you’re good in that” she was and had always protected Will by not exposing his affairs. If you do just 🤏🏽 research on Will you will find his many escapades with women AND men. But true to patriarchy design the woman is attacked and deemed the worst woman to a man who is protected from such scrunity of his affairs. It’s CRAZY that you said Jada should have allowed the world to continue this hateful narrative against her about how she controlled Will to slap Chris although they had been separated for years at the cost of Will’s pride?!!! 😅😅😅 what in the entire hell!
@@Igboman87Jada has addressed her sexuality. She said she experimented with women in the past but it made her come up to the conclusion she really likes men
But how would it be an affair if it was an open marriage. Will has said that Jada never believed in traditional marriage Bec some family members had unconventional relationships. So they agreed to an open marriage at a point in their marriage. The only issue is Jada should have chosen someone that wasn't her son's friend
Every time I see younger pictures/films of Jada, I’m always in shock and disbelief. Her face today looks extremely different from what it used to be lol. She didn’t need to do whatever she’s been doing to her face.
I never said Jada wasn’t pretty. I just noticed her younger face and her face right now looks like she did something over the years to alter her appearance. Whether it’s Botox, fillers or skin tightening treatments. I’m not sure. Either way, she didn’t need to be doing them🤷🏽♀️
Wats different about her face exactly? Or do you mean she’s aging? There are no signs of face lifts, eye tightening, cheek lift, lip plumping, etc. Are you a surgeon? How can u tell ?
The movies that made Jada were Low Down Dirty Shame, Jason's Lyric and Set It Off. She was pretty much a star after those. She's a classy lady who's clearly been through some trials like anyone worth their mettle in this life but she tends to overshare. A little mystery goes a long way.
I would say Scream 2 and the Matrix trilogy established her more because look how her Scream intro got parodied in Scary Movie and how many of us cant stop talking about the Matrix?
I’m really over the bullying they are getting at the moment. My personal take is that there’s a lot about gender roles and identity going on in society at the moment and people are projecting all of their stuff onto that couple about who she is as a woman and who he is as a man.
Some of what other UA-camrs have said I can agree with about the Smiths. But, there are times when the ones who drag them- especially Jada- senselessly, it comes across as downright mean spirited. People do need to stop projecting so much. If they don't like the Smiths, don't tune into videos about them! It's that simple! 🙄
Ok bullying is wrong..but in this case is it really “bullying”?…the Smiths aren’t smaller and defenseless, they aren’t being quiet and minding their own business..It’s their actions that attracting attention! It’s the way Jada continues to put their business out there, the things she says just angers some people. Nobody asked for this..she’s just wayyy out there saying outlandish unnecessary personal things and what did she expect the reaction from the world would be? Some ppl are sympathetic but most are becoming disgusted with her. Then she’s like “I don’t care wat u think” 😮 and that makes it even worse..I really liked them both as actors but now their careers, esp Will Smith’s will continue to take a big hit..all because of her 🙄
@@mariecolette170 it is bullying and I'm sorry she is writing a memoir. Like do you all know the definition of memoir????? It's to write about periods of your life. I actually did read the book and it was good and the stuff she is saying is the same stuff will write in his book last year. I find it funny pple praise Britney spears but demoze Jada when they both are doing the same thing
Two things: one - flight list. Most of you will know the one I'm talking about. Two, Jada told us from the beginning that Will wasn't who he appeared to be. She said, and I paraphrase here, "People think I'm the harsh one, and Will is this big teddy bear, when in reality, I'm the teddy bear and he's as hard as nails." I think Jada definitely has her ways and I really did side-eye those who were willing to defend her fiercely, but I have never bought that she was the villain of the piece. At all.
I think the whole thing is a lesson in misogyny. Here we have one of the wealthiest celebs in the world slapping a guy and THE WOMAN IS BLAMED FOR IT. It seems like an exercise in absurdity to see a grown, accomplished man being painted like her puppet.
Yes she is human, yes they BOTH need to be held accountable for their mistakes but she isn’t the least bit innocent. It’s a clear money grab - exploiting her dad, against her own children’s wishes, for mulah. For attention. It’s gross. He did it too though. They both need to just shut up and get couple’s therapy and leave the red table behind. This is just ridiculous. It’s a friggin love circus. They both look so stupid right now.
@@thornyback Listen...the amount of unpacking I've had to do with my own view of women like Jada Pinkett. Megan Fox is another one. Because these women are sexy, intelligent, outspoken & kind of messy, there's this absurd perspective we have of them somehow being cold, invulnerable and the ones pulling the strings in a dysfunctional relationship. It never occurs to us that THEY could be the ones with the short straw in the power dynamic, and even when it's revealed they are, we still somehow try to make it the women's fault. It gets worse when all we hear are the opinions of men who wanted these women and couldn't have them, or who wanted to control these women and couldn't. Nine times out of ten, it's always one man, or even multiple men, doing the whole covert/vulnerable narcissism thing. And it almost always works.
@@EmpressJusticeTarot Everything you said. I really think in a couple years ppl are going to have to apologize to her when they realize what they did. Just like with Marilyn, Lewinsky, and Megan Fox. The misogyny and internal misogyny is so disgusting to witness and I'm actually shocked about how ppl dont recognize it.
Exactly. They want her to feed their delusions and deny and silence her truth. It's actually really sad. It's her life and she's allowed to share whatever she wants.
It’s really sad to watch a woman so blessed tear down her own house…reputation, marriage and children for what? A few headlines and some book sales? 🥴 Proverbs 14:1-2 A wise woman builds her home, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.😔
You have no idea what you’re talking about and true to patriarchy you use the Bible to condemn a woman without any research or true understanding of the dynamics of their marriage.
Karine, we love you and your content. Some of us want you to really think what kind of person acts like Jada but deserves sympathy? She seems focused on staying in the limelight and using her husband and children as props for staying relevant. She seems, to me, to be Kim K but more palpable.
I definitely hold her accountable in this video for how she went about things. It’s crazy cause I used the Kardashians as an example too. But we don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors. The way Will keeps co-signing her as she dismantle his manhood in the media is so concerning and it leads me to think that there is some benefit for both of them with all of this. I believe we will all know soon enough since they are now writing a book together.
@@KarineAlourde What!? They are writing a book together? I had not heard this. Oh-M-Geeeeeeee! ....help my eyes are stuck up in my head from rolling them so hard. 😁
@@KarineAlourde Her telling her story didn't dismantle his manhood! Are you kidding me? What does her telling her story have to do with his manhood? You're no better than these other channels blaming Jada for ruining Will!
You can actually see will's rage boiling under those laughs at that table when he jokes about getting her back. I would be afraid if that was directed at me for real.
Thank you, Karine for this video. I think that Jada gets a bad name, but I personally appreciate that she has been so brave to express her story, who knows it could be someone else need to hear that testimony, you just never know who you are healing. As far as their business, whatever they share is whatever they share. ALSO, THANK YOU for highlighting the Chris Rock thing, HE BEEN AFTER JADA! And he been wanted her, she is being targeting and no one can see that. Enough is enough.
Jada was clinically depressed n Will n her momma knew it that’s why she cried for 40 days. She was taking meds or maybe she wasn’t at the time. I think Will n Jada have a co- dependent relationship. She had an addictive behavior n was stubborn that’s a big pill to swallow a lot of people can’t handle that it takes a person with long patience n compassion to deal with that. I have friends that are married to manic depressive partners. Also a couple of girlfriends have had depressive states of existence. It’s an emotional rollercoaster imagine going through that having trauma as a kid then being apart of Hollyweird it almost makes you think Hollywood just draws in broken talented people to be apart of their fantasies. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Jada has admitted she is codependent on red table talk. I grew up in a codependent household. Then married someone and had codependency in my marriage. It’s a tough cycle to break.
No he didn't, Jada had a career all of her own before she ever met Will, so that most definitely is not true and Hollywood was not done with her, whatever roles that she didn't want to do then just like with everyone else when it comes to deciding whether or not they want to do a roll or not then it's totally up to that person
you need to go back and do the research cause in the early 2000's she could not get any gigs but since Will Smith got big and had more power he got her that role in the matrix which was gonna go to Vivica Fox and he got her that tv show Hawthorne which he put up a lot of money and now she still not grateful
I got to spend a few hours with Jada, Will, Jaden, Willow and both grandmothers on a casual setting back in '04/'05. First, she had no makeup on and she was absolutely STUNNING in person. Both were hands on parents and very kind to me and their kids and mothers. Will, watch/played with the kids, it was very normal and nice.
OMG, I remember that episode of A Different World with Jada rocking that French Twist. I loved that hairstyle, it’s so 90s. That would be dope to bring the french twist back from the 90s ❤
When we look back at all the interviews, we can clearly see that they have been telling us for YEARS that they have been separated living as life partners. Everybody is hating Jada for clearly stating what they have been eluding to. I really feel that people are mad because it’s Jada talking and not Will. Women get embarrassed all the time but not our male heros
They've been talking in circles. Saying "we were separated at the time" gives the impression one is back together. Now she just recently blamed the media not being clear with the story that they've found their way back to each other.
i really admire Jada for creating the space for people to have these conversations about taboo topics. People just have to have a woman to hate and I love that she will do her regardless of the backlash.
Imo, Jada is using Will and their 2 children as props as her career fades. Her Red Table Talk was canceled. She has no major film projects. Even before her memoir, she humiliated Will on her show with her affair (not "entanglement") with her son's best friend. If the roles were reversed, Will would have been canceled. With her memoir, she's getting major backlash. She wants back into the limelight. But at the cost of Will's career/reputation AND her 2 children's mental health. She's narcissistic to the core.
Girl bye. You don't follow them. Facebook cancelled all their talk shows. Will wrote a book in 2021. They have been separated since 2016. You are just jumping on the hater bandwagon.
my favorite Jada P movie is A Low down dirty Shame" - OMG she was so funny such Light hearted natural comedian without trying too hard. and i think combination between her and Gorgous K I Waynae was just helleries
I agree, but I think her mom is the one doing witch craft and has been manipulating Jada and Will. I think Jada decided to finally unleash her wrath on Will because of her own envy of his success, but also because of his infidelities. I get the sense that Jada’s mom knew how to guilt her into the marriage and made her believe that it was her duty to uplift both her and her mom economically. Will was the meal ticket in her mothers’s eyes.
I'm LITERALLY watching Jason's Lyric right now. I was EXPECTING a breakdown on JPS. I don't agree with all of her choices yet she's STILL a great actress to me. I won't deny her beauty nor her talent. I'll see another movie with her before I buy her memoir. The interviews will suffice. ❤
She's the one that's responsible and to blame for her so-called "legacy" which she wouldn't even have if she wasn't married to Will Smith. She's just throwing her entire family under the bus and then running them over with it right afterwards too. She can heal without talking about herself publicly, but she's doing it for promotional reasons, not for health purposes. She's selling her book of blatant victimhood for financial and reputational gain. She can clear her name of whatever she feels she needs to clear without looking like a bully that emabarresses her children, her mother, and her husband during the process of wanting to become more popular, not to mention TuPac. @@KarineAlourde
When Red Table Talk first came out, I loved the show. We got a chance to know Jada's mother Gaby and Willow in a way we hadn't seen them before which was pleasant to see generational women doing this. It was a great idea. They covered some tough topics no one discussed and helped others through their traumas as well by opening the platform for them to talk it out. Somehow, things started going left when she started over sharing about her and Will. There is nothing wrong initially with sharing things one has overcome to help others like Gabys drug addiction, difficult times and struggles in the family upbringing, and so forth. Will is now perceived as weak to the public because of what she said and how he responds to it. Jada opened that door, then Will counteracted by writing his book, which was his way of telling the story. Now, nothing they've said can be unheard nor what they've done unseen. I always loved Jada as an actress, and she is a good one. It's a shame it's all over shadowed by this. Yes, Jada and Will have gone through tauma that would have been best handled in private between them so that they couldve told their story from a healed place which would have been more receptive by the public from both of them. That way once healed, any book they would have come out with would be about how they got on the other side and be a help to others....not a joke or something that makes the other look weak but coming ftom a strong place. It's not the story being shared that I'm sure so many folks can relate to that is the real issue, but it is how the story is being told. It should have been shared from an honest and healed place, but it doesn't look to me to be coming from that place.
Yikes. No way Will can be healed after throwing away his career accomplishments on a moment to slap a jerk on stage on a national tv. He can't possibly healed from that at the time of writing a graphic book about Jada. And saying he's always wanted Jada even during his first marriage is not something a healed person says at the expense of who could be listening like his ex. It's a level of disrespect. So many of his actions or reactions don't come from healing but from a thing called "saving face".
@girlbrittneygirl If I recall Jada said they are STILL healing not healed. Definitely looks and feels different. I know from my own experience. Just because it's being talked about don't mean healed.
I truly believe she has something on Will that he needs to protect. Thats why he is so supportive. It is nothing for people to get divorced. I wish them All the very best because when it all comes out it will be devastating.
"It is nothing for people to get divorced." In what world? It takes a huge emotional and financial toll. And if kids are involved, divorce is the destruction of the only world they know.
People fall back on good friends for marriage when they think they have absolutely no other options in the future. Perhaps they feel time is running out and they want that baby, or that marriage. Then your “best friend” is everything.
I agree about the "normal" vows. If I ever remarry, we're coming up with our own vows, and it will be private. Your channel is always so good. I couldn't watch it for awhile, because the smoke was bothering me, but you are so good. I've sent your channel to so many other people. You are very clear and nobody should ever hate you.
In terms of the Tupac marriage proposal: jada says in the book that Tupac wanted something substantial when he was in jail bc she feels he really knew his life was about to end. And he wanted somebody who he knew would take care of his mama.
The thought process doesn't make sense, since marrying someone doesn't guarantee someone will take care of one's parents when one is gone, cause most people focus on grieving their spouse, kids and eventually moving on.
@@sbusisiweshaba1715 And he was engaged to Kidada Jones so is she saying that he didn’t think Kidada would look after his mom? I don’t believe anything she says anymore. It’s all for attention n money.
@@MysCathyHer statement is very contradictory to what we already knew about Tupac's life at the time. It makes me wonder how true it is and if it is true, then it tells a lot about how little Tupac valued Kidada Jones and how unserious he was about their engagement, not to mention heartless of him, to be engaged to a woman and ask another woman to marry him as well.
I loved when Jada and Will first came out and would always coordinate their outfits. For us, it was Will & Jada, Halle & David Justice and Whitney & Bobby. They were everywhere
Still got love for Will and Jada. They are celebrities and making headlines and maintaining visibility is their business. None of this bothers me it's part of the game!
You have said it all, I don’t know why people are analyzing this very wealthy people’s life to death. Since she talked about her so called entanglement with August, I consciously stopped watching or listening to anything she is spewing or showing. I don’t care so much about she and Will’s personal life, really this has been going on since the power love triangle of Cleopatra, Anthony and Cesar, then it became Elizabeth, Richard and Eddie Fisher, then Brad, Jennifer and Angelina. This is all Hollywood, drama, gossip and inconsequential mundane crap. These people want you to buy their books. That’s all.
Really? Cause Brad Pitt & Leonardo Di Caprio aren’t out here revealing their business and they, unlike Will & Jada, are still major movie stars. At this point Will & Jada will get laughed off the screen 😆
@@Jamietheroadrunner Correction: NOT YET! Simply because something HASN'T happened doesn't mean that it WON'T happen. All celebrities court drama because high visibility is their bread and butter.
Jada is such a Beautiful, Talented and Important Queen. African American women still get openly attacked for being women, living human lives. Her life is as valuable as any white woman’s. Live your life, Queen. May you continue to Grow in GODMOSTHIGH, and be Blessed.
I feel for Jada too. She is so gorgeous she’s one of my favs . I fell in love with her attitude in Jason’s Lyric. 90s Jada was definitely a different type of sexy ❤. & Jada said she believes he only asked her bcs he was in prison and needed a woman for the ride.
I find it odd Jada claimed to not believe in marriage but seems to want to hold on to her marriage for dear life. Seems like a contradiction. I feel like she tries hard to be the 'cool girl' when underneath that she is insecure.
I think Will's the one who wants to hold on for dear life. In his book, he said he'll never divorce again because he views it as him being a failure. So, yeah, bad marriage for life.
@@MsDezB1 Good Lord Will really said that??? No wonder HE comes off as narcissistic and lost like many celebs. It's because he EXPECTS us to see ourselves in everything he does and that's why he's always had trouble connecting with the black community on a much grounded level.
She was in her 20's, single with no children when she felt that way. She is now in her 50's, married with children, and has built a business, brand, etc... much has changed as it should.
😢Jada needs Jesus!!! I feel sad for her. She’s smart intelligent but not wise. I’m praying for her she’s so broken! I just want to hold her and wipes her tears; Jesus can do it. Matthew 3:17♥️ Could you do Debbie Morgan next ?
I'm from Baltimore also, love my hometown and all of my dear native Baltimoean brothers and sisters in spirit. Jada is a very good friend to my Goddaughter ❤️🤗💯👏👍
All I can think is that she has Will on tape in a compromising position or something…gotta be a disgusting act like underage trafficking..whatever it is, it’s devastating
Karine, Thank you for treating Jada so gracefully in this video. It was well balanced. Many people don't understand the effect that childhood trauma can have. I believe she is trying to balance healing, being a celebrity, and having non-traditional views/opinions. I wish her well, although I wish she would/could seek her healing privately. Her celebrity status will never truly allow for that. There is always someone willing to expose. Some assistant, nanny, family friend will tell it all for a few bucks. So she is doing this very publicly. I too want to be removed from the group chat. Unfortunately, I don't think any of us will be.
Yes. I know exactly what you’re saying. Actors are not just acting in the shows and movies. They have a job to do at all times, control the public and siphon the masses money, whether they are aware of it every time or are manipulated into situations to influence people, idk. I feel like 5-7 years ago I was saying to myself I am so tired of the Smith family. It’s season 754 of Smith family headline gossip. They’ve got to be one of the elite’s favorite families. They are just glued to the world stage indefinitely. It’s ridiculous! Like rotate a couple families
as an aroace person, I really like that she talked about being that close with tupac while also highlighting that it wasn't romantic or sexual at all. I think it's good to point out that your closest relationships can be platonic or queerplatonic or anything else.
He liked her. But he didn't love her. He wanted Janet. If a guy like Tupac wants you, he gets out of his way to get you, doesn't write a poem about you.
I think a lot of the criticism towards Will for slapping Chris has softened after Jada saying they've been separated; it diverted that critcism from Will to Jada. This is huge for Will as an actor. People might forgive him and more people will want to watch his movies. It has turned him into an under-dog to root for. I think what Jada is doing will financially benefit both her and Will.
No means to judge on another ones life. However I understand and have some similar thought. The sacrifices in Hollyweird is unknowing and unbelievable. Psychology at work While evil rears it head. That's EntertainWeirdment🥴 I just can't Almighty Father , Jesus we need you cuz we humans is a mess down here. Everything is Sham!
This is one of the best takes I’ve read on this situation 🙌 Because it really dismantles this online /black Twitter theory that Will is being ‘humiliated’ Like he clearly doesn’t think so the way he his publicly standing by Jada. Also, the public concern for him shows his popularity is at an all time high. And if that now translates into future projects being a huge success, well then it’s a Hollywood game well played
Cause I started with Eartha Kitt and now have ended up watching almost all videos. The learning and also healing myself from the lessons provided in the lives you have beautifully articulate to us made me a FAN OF URS.
Tupac was already engaged to another woman, so this story of him asking her to marry him and also them not having any romamtic attraction is really confusing, the pieces don't logically fit. However if she says, that's what happened then okay. I do think that Jada knew what she wanted at a young age, this marriage should never have happened, but it's also confusing why she stuck it out for 20 something years. Also this separation story sounds a bit crazy. Will felt they could be over but weren't, she says they were over and then he says he got her back and still call each other partners, implying that Jada still doesn't like being married or being called a wife smh. It could all be for clout or money, we can't take Hollywood seriously. Another great video Karine.👏
She seems cruel in her words. Thoughtless in how "speaking her truth" would hurt others, esp. Will. Life is about being true to yourself but also being considerate to others, esp. the ones you purport to love.
Will Smith loves Jada Pinkette Smith! Tupac loved her!! Her husband is supporting her and so would Tupac if he was here! They dgaf about y'all opinions; the truth is the truth period. We should support her (like her husband is doing) whether her story makes us or him uncomfortable or not. It's crazy to me how ppl want to silence her but Will is allowed to write his own memoir and no one makes a peep! Sounds like misogyny to me.
You are the nicest, smartest and most open minded woman - I love that. During the first part of this video, I had trouble not allowing myself to say “oh PLEASE!” But the middle and ending were VERY open minded and wise. My period jury has already convicted Jada of over the top narcissism and self promotion/absorption. BUT - there may be a retrial based on your observations. Please know that I’m truly not judgmental-it’s just been a lot with her.
I understand the perspectives and the healing process which is ugly as can be. Being vulnerable and facing the unattractiveness of life does make a difference. The world will learn something from all of this.
WHEN IT COMES TO JADA AND WILL, PEOPLE NEED TO MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS AND LET THEM HEAL BETWEEN THEMSELVES INSTEAD OF LOOKING TO ALWAYS CAUSE DRAMA, LET THEM LIVE IN PEACE!!!❤
I just wonder did Jada really help August Alsina in the long run? Cuz we all know he's been real sick for years and on top of that, raising a few of his nieces... I think his "entanglement" with Jada did more harm than good. He's forever going to be known as Jada's side piece which overshadows his talent. Edit: when she said I just want to feel good it made me think of Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton in that movie Monster's Ball. Wasn't Diddy on death row in that movie? Now it's art imitating life. Cuz his career is on death row.
I’m starting to think they are trying to play us at this point. Like some ole Derrick Jaxon and Da Naiah stuff. Maybe it’s all drummed up for us to be distracted.
Yup that’s what I think too 👀
THISSS
Definitely been thinking this whole family is used as a distraction. Glad I'm not the only one.
@@yasminerosexo8133but distract us from what
Jada sounds like she may have some bipolar disorder which some very creative ppl deal. Hopefully the family heals.
I wish people would leave Tupac alone and let him rest in peace.
Me too! ;(
What are you talking about? So when we listen to his music we are not letting him rest in peace? People who knew him and still talk about him is not letting him rest in peace?
Kudos to Jada for keeping his memory alive.
I enjoy hearing about the man behind the music.
You don't speak for everyone.
🙏
@@banyana6515 seem like you can not read what I met before jumping the conclusion. Go off I guess.
@@wonderwalledit I'm tired of people keeping up false information and making fun of what he and Jada did in the past. Tupac has been going through a lot. He is dealing with dark times, and I feel sorry for Jada. Yes, she talks too much, but I can tell she is dealing with depression. People think it's funny, but this issue is sad about marriage, rumors, and what Jada wants.
One thing about Jada.. she may be controversial but she is STUNNING😩!
I agree.
Oh no doubt. She’s gorgeous
She is just thin
That's all I was waiting for someone to say I promise she was she was beautiful
Especially in her younger days. She seems to have got some work done as she aged.
Oversharing, codependency and narcissistic tendencies can be childhood trauma responses, when someone's grown up with an unstable parent. They want total openness, but end up oversharing and childhood neglect causes the person to overfocus on their own emotions.
🎯
Very true
I feel like will is hanging in there thru out all Jada's enbarrasing moments geared towards her husband I feel she knows all his dark secrets! Who want their book she already told enuff but come on now she's not gonna tell all! It's just not gonna happen
I have experienced this first hand with my own mother and have this problem with myself at times
That is some good insight.
She hasnt shared anymore than Will has. People need to read his book. She is confirming and expanding on a lot of what was out there already.
Exactly. A lot of people have whole opinions with half of the information that's out
Thank you. The art of critical thinking has been lost. There is a lot of bandwagon thinking and blinding following narratives.
@@msk7458 Right! It's been so baffling to see so many people repeat these narratives without thinking. 😑
Thank you for saying it
Doesn’t make her any less of a grifter., just because he’s involved too.
I really loved the 90s Jada from A Different World and Jason’s Lyric. She was beauty and fierce and demanded respect. It was in her essence. Idk who the Jada is today but she will always be one of the best actresses ever❤
It’s crazy how Life, but MAINLY the industry can strip someone of their Essence, their Soul, their BEINGS!!! .. it’s like some of them are Completely Different People almost on a Spiritual Level
Can't forget Set it Off💥
@@sierraxx9979YES! All of her covers for Essence have been GORGEOUS. I purchased most of them! ❤
I loved her in Jason's Lyric. 😍 I watched that just the other night.
Whaaaat!!!! IDTS
It's ALL A GAME💯 They all are in on IT and ain't no telling how deep it is🤔 There were stories in the 2000s about all the swinging that was swirling between them and J.Lo/Marc Anthony,😳
Never knew she went through so much. Soooo I feel sorry for both Jada & Will. I mean they are human beings. People are people. Nobody is perfect.
If you don't want to get married, just don't get married. No one forced her.
I don’t like Jada but i agree with her on marriage. I was “forced” to protect my kids because it makes it easier for them and whatever happens : death, illness and other issues , the kids at least in-my country are protected under this contract with the state you live in. At least in Italy! So o felt pushed by our respective families. I tried and resisted but then hearing horror stories by solicitors friends and expecting our third one, i gave in. Now still going “strong …known mu hubby for 25 years, living together and started a family 20 years ago, married for 15 but still feel forced by society, family etc… to burocratically formalize the relationship. It is not a biggie i don’t think about it everyday, but i would have put the same effort without the contract, but that is me.
Exactly- quit whining
@@silviaetna9874 it seems that the children are worse off with their parents telling the world about their dysfunctional family. I wouldn't even want to see my mother on TV, or anywhere else, talking about her affair with the family friend. I guess nothing is sacred these days. The more ridiculous you are, the more money you make.
Familial pressure is not easy, particularly as a young person.
But also, it is incredibly odd behavior that Will STILL married her knowing fully well she was miserable going into the marriage
@@LindaOliver-e8q agree 100% on this point.i was just saying that when i was young i was brainwashed by media and i did not have the critical thinking skills i havenow. So i did feel the pressure to get married while i wanted to be like destinies child song “independent”… are all the single ladies all the single ladies…i don’t think like that anymore i hav evolved but me and jada are one year apart. I get where she is coming from. I don’t know if she has evolved. That is all. Now my life is not my life. My priority are my kids. Their happiness and safety is more important than me. My family as a whole is more important than me, me and me again.
Her genes are strong! It's like seeing her kids in her old pics.
Her kids are hideous though lol
Respectfully disagree. Jada looks just like her mother, but both of the kids look like Will, even now.
And…going to family THERAPY would’ve been 10000 times better than “Red Table Talk.”
@@s.malone2849I agree, the kids are a photocopy of Will.
@@s.malone2849 family therapy would have 10000% been so much better. This is the general consensus.
@@s.malone2849I think Jaden looks more like Jada. Esp in that video dancing w Tupac. She looks just like Jaden there. Willow is a carbon copy of Will. Also look at their heights! Jaden is short like Jada. Willow is tall like Will. Think that’s why they are named accordingly
Jada is NOT lying about Baltimore and the choices you have to make. Life can be tough and so are it’s choices.
Exactly, I 'm from Baltimore also, Jada went to Junior High School with my Goddaughter and they still keep in touch, but yeah she most definitely is speaking the truth but regardless I still and always will love my hometown of Baltimore, Maryland.
@@verahall6498Lol yall are hilarious
I was born here and can’t wait to get out it’s trash af haterville if u not into the f***ry (sitting around gossiping, drugs) U are attacked/ bullied
The analogy used in the introduction " She's like an onion with many layers" oh Karine.🥰
your brother's music is nice , i really enjoy it !
Always so soothing.
Keisha Morris is a naturally stunning, highly educated, successful woman and ex-wife and close friend of Tupac. She has never written about him or exposed his private business. Neither has Kidada Jones Tupac fiance at the time of his murder at 25 years old.
Kidada Jones.
Imo Jada is being delusional about her relationship with Tupac. I really think they were JUSY FRIENDS. You can look at their pictures from the past that screams WE ARE FRIENDS!!
Besides this marriage is toxic.
Jada and Will came from dysfunctional backgrounds. Real talk. I feel sorry for their children😢
Feel sorry for will
May be will is too classy
Facts
Tupac did share about his hair loss, in older interviews. He stated it was do to the police beating him in the head. Stated that he suffered from hair loss and nightmares since.
jada may have been projecting
Do i believe Jada had a troubled past? Yes, do I also think she is problematic? Yes.
She definitely is
Yes. It’s the spirit that she carries…proud and defiant.
Because of her issues and previous trauma.
😂😅😂
Tupac was already engaged to his girlfriend Keisha Morris before he went to jail. His fiance moved closer to the prison so she could visit him daily. Jasmine Guy visited and was close friends with Jasmine Guy, too. Jasmine Guy was a really good friend of Tupac as we're other famous actresses and singers, and they have not shared their private stories with the public.
Different strokes… what they eat doesn’t make another 💩
Yeah but they weren't close before the fame, Jada was. They were close childhood friends. Big difference.
Why is it hard to believe PAC was dealing with multiple women lol ? Multiple women have come out and linked themselves to him romantically all while he was engaged . I believe he proposed I don’t think she would just make that up
Tupac was also engaged to one of Quincy Jones's daughter.
Him and Keisha actually got marred
People are so used to seeing toxic relationships. The fact that through the good, bad and ugly; Jada and Will support and love each other is such a foreign concept.
That is exactly why there are so many toxic relationships. People don't work to improve nothing. Just move their toxic behavior from person to person. No one has any idea what Will has done behind closed doors.
I applaud Jada and Will attempting to repair their relationship no matter the method, amount of time or the toxic people in their business.
People REALLY missed that part When Jada said “oh. You’ve gotten me back…you’re good in that” she was and had always protected Will by not exposing his affairs.
If you do just 🤏🏽 research on Will you will find his many escapades with women AND men. But true to patriarchy design the woman is attacked and deemed the worst woman to a man who is protected from such scrunity of his affairs.
It’s CRAZY that you said Jada should have allowed the world to continue this hateful narrative against her about how she controlled Will to slap Chris although they had been separated for years at the cost of Will’s pride?!!! 😅😅😅 what in the entire hell!
About escapades, Will and Jada are supposedly both bisexual.
i love your comment wish i could save it
This comment is 🔥🔥. That’s real 💯
@@Igboman87Jada has addressed her sexuality. She said she experimented with women in the past but it made her come up to the conclusion she really likes men
But how would it be an affair if it was an open marriage. Will has said that Jada never believed in traditional marriage Bec some family members had unconventional relationships. So they agreed to an open marriage at a point in their marriage. The only issue is Jada should have chosen someone that wasn't her son's friend
Why does no one talk about how FIONE jayda is. She was born gorgeous.
Every time I see younger pictures/films of Jada, I’m always in shock and disbelief. Her face today looks extremely different from what it used to be lol. She didn’t need to do whatever she’s been doing to her face.
Jada is pretty❤
Jada has and always will be beautiful.
I never said Jada wasn’t pretty. I just noticed her younger face and her face right now looks like she did something over the years to alter her appearance. Whether it’s Botox, fillers or skin tightening treatments. I’m not sure. Either way, she didn’t need to be doing them🤷🏽♀️
@@RandomLinda14👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Wats different about her face exactly? Or do you mean she’s aging? There are no signs of face lifts, eye tightening, cheek lift, lip plumping, etc. Are you a surgeon? How can u tell ?
The movies that made Jada were Low Down Dirty Shame, Jason's Lyric and Set It Off. She was pretty much a star after those. She's a classy lady who's clearly been through some trials like anyone worth their mettle in this life but she tends to overshare. A little mystery goes a long way.
Very Well Said 👍
Wasn’t she Peaches?
and kingdom come and woo
I would say Scream 2 and the Matrix trilogy established her more because look how her Scream intro got parodied in Scary Movie and how many of us cant stop talking about the Matrix?
Her mom was so beautiful
I’m really over the bullying they are getting at the moment. My personal take is that there’s a lot about gender roles and identity going on in society at the moment and people are projecting all of their stuff onto that couple about who she is as a woman and who he is as a man.
EXACTLY
Some of what other UA-camrs have said I can agree with about the Smiths. But, there are times when the ones who drag them- especially Jada- senselessly, it comes across as downright mean spirited. People do need to stop projecting so much. If they don't like the Smiths, don't tune into videos about them! It's that simple! 🙄
Yep n pple hate a beautiful woman who admits she made a few mistakes. Notice Britney got praised for spilling tea bout Jada got dehumanized
Ok bullying is wrong..but in this case is it really “bullying”?…the Smiths aren’t smaller and defenseless, they aren’t being quiet and minding their own business..It’s their actions that attracting attention! It’s the way Jada continues to put their business out there, the things she says just angers some people. Nobody asked for this..she’s just wayyy out there saying outlandish unnecessary personal things and what did she expect the reaction from the world would be? Some ppl are sympathetic but most are becoming disgusted with her. Then she’s like “I don’t care wat u think” 😮 and that makes it even worse..I really liked them both as actors but now their careers, esp Will Smith’s will continue to take a big hit..all because of her 🙄
@@mariecolette170 it is bullying and I'm sorry she is writing a memoir. Like do you all know the definition of memoir????? It's to write about periods of your life. I actually did read the book and it was good and the stuff she is saying is the same stuff will write in his book last year. I find it funny pple praise Britney spears but demoze Jada when they both are doing the same thing
Can we all appreciate how beautiful Jada is? She was always pretty to me, but I feel as she grew older, she aged like a super FINE wine.😍🥰❤
Can't believe Karine didn't dish on Jada's beauty secrets. Just sayin'. 🤷🏾♀️
Beautiful on the outside but what about the inside 😅😅😅
Two things: one - flight list. Most of you will know the one I'm talking about. Two, Jada told us from the beginning that Will wasn't who he appeared to be. She said, and I paraphrase here, "People think I'm the harsh one, and Will is this big teddy bear, when in reality, I'm the teddy bear and he's as hard as nails." I think Jada definitely has her ways and I really did side-eye those who were willing to defend her fiercely, but I have never bought that she was the villain of the piece. At all.
I think the whole thing is a lesson in misogyny. Here we have one of the wealthiest celebs in the world slapping a guy and THE WOMAN IS BLAMED FOR IT. It seems like an exercise in absurdity to see a grown, accomplished man being painted like her puppet.
Really? Jefferey Epstien! That doesn't mean the participated in sex trafficing!
Yes she is human, yes they BOTH need to be held accountable for their mistakes but she isn’t the least bit innocent. It’s a clear money grab - exploiting her dad, against her own children’s wishes, for mulah. For attention. It’s gross. He did it too though. They both need to just shut up and get couple’s therapy and leave the red table behind. This is just ridiculous. It’s a friggin love circus. They both look so stupid right now.
@@thornyback Listen...the amount of unpacking I've had to do with my own view of women like Jada Pinkett. Megan Fox is another one. Because these women are sexy, intelligent, outspoken & kind of messy, there's this absurd perspective we have of them somehow being cold, invulnerable and the ones pulling the strings in a dysfunctional relationship. It never occurs to us that THEY could be the ones with the short straw in the power dynamic, and even when it's revealed they are, we still somehow try to make it the women's fault. It gets worse when all we hear are the opinions of men who wanted these women and couldn't have them, or who wanted to control these women and couldn't. Nine times out of ten, it's always one man, or even multiple men, doing the whole covert/vulnerable narcissism thing. And it almost always works.
@@EmpressJusticeTarot Everything you said. I really think in a couple years ppl are going to have to apologize to her when they realize what they did. Just like with Marilyn, Lewinsky, and Megan Fox. The misogyny and internal misogyny is so disgusting to witness and I'm actually shocked about how ppl dont recognize it.
Times were different back then. I believe she was pressured to get married. Ppl blaming her for being honest are ridiculous
Thank you!!
Exactly. They want her to feed their delusions and deny and silence her truth. It's actually really sad. It's her life and she's allowed to share whatever she wants.
I agree
People still get pressured the same way people did 30 or 40 years ago. She was an adult in the 1990s, not the 1890s.
Thank you for your perspective ma'am everyone has one. No one can judge. Keep doing you❤
It’s really sad to watch a woman so blessed tear down her own house…reputation, marriage and children for what? A few headlines and some book sales? 🥴
Proverbs 14:1-2
A wise woman builds her home, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.😔
Will wrote his book in 2021. So I don't what you are talking about.
Exactly Julia their kids will be so messed up from everything they've witnessed from their role models.
♥️✝️💖
You have no idea what you’re talking about and true to patriarchy you use the Bible to condemn a woman without any research or true understanding of the dynamics of their marriage.
@@Yellow-Rose Ma'am those are some grown kids!
Karine, we love you and your content. Some of us want you to really think what kind of person acts like Jada but deserves sympathy? She seems focused on staying in the limelight and using her husband and children as props for staying relevant. She seems, to me, to be Kim K but more palpable.
I definitely hold her accountable in this video for how she went about things. It’s crazy cause I used the Kardashians as an example too. But we don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors. The way Will keeps co-signing her as she dismantle his manhood in the media is so concerning and it leads me to think that there is some benefit for both of them with all of this. I believe we will all know soon enough since they are now writing a book together.
@@KarineAlourde What!? They are writing a book together? I had not heard this. Oh-M-Geeeeeeee! ....help my eyes are stuck up in my head from rolling them so hard. 😁
@@KarineAlourde REACH !
@@KarineAlourde Her telling her story didn't dismantle his manhood! Are you kidding me? What does her telling her story have to do with his manhood? You're no better than these other channels blaming Jada for ruining Will!
Don't forget Tupac. It's like Tupac and Will are her only lasting claims to fame.
I disagree with some of the ways they went about their information. As for Chris, he has been problematic for decades.
I feel like Will and Jada were in love with the idea of one another and the image. It’s more of like a business partnership.
Correct
You can actually see will's rage boiling under those laughs at that table when he jokes about getting her back. I would be afraid if that was directed at me for real.
Thank you, Karine for this video. I think that Jada gets a bad name, but I personally appreciate that she has been so brave to express her story, who knows it could be someone else need to hear that testimony, you just never know who you are healing.
As far as their business, whatever they share is whatever they share.
ALSO, THANK YOU for highlighting the Chris Rock thing, HE BEEN AFTER JADA! And he been wanted her, she is being targeting and no one can see that. Enough is enough.
Set it off Jada Is my fav
Jada was clinically depressed n Will n her momma knew it that’s why she cried for 40 days. She was taking meds or maybe she wasn’t at the time. I think Will n Jada have a co- dependent relationship. She had an addictive behavior n was stubborn that’s a big pill to swallow a lot of people can’t handle that it takes a person with long patience n compassion to deal with that. I have friends that are married to manic depressive partners. Also a couple of girlfriends have had depressive states of existence. It’s an emotional rollercoaster imagine going through that having trauma as a kid then being apart of Hollyweird it almost makes you think Hollywood just draws in broken talented people to be apart of their fantasies. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
😂😂 do you live in their house, psychologist😂😂😂
Jada has admitted she is codependent on red table talk. I grew up in a codependent household. Then married someone and had codependency in my marriage. It’s a tough cycle to break.
@@teeteeme5752 lol, right?
Will Smith fought to get Jada roles in the Matrix, Hawthorne tv show , Girls trip. Hollywood was done with Jada
Source?
I love Hawthorne.
I believe it
No he didn't, Jada had a career all of her own before she ever met Will, so that most definitely is not true and Hollywood was not done with her, whatever roles that she didn't want to do then just like with everyone else when it comes to deciding whether or not they want to do a roll or not then it's totally up to that person
you need to go back and do the research cause in the early 2000's she could not get any gigs but since Will Smith got big and had more power he got her that role in the matrix which was gonna go to Vivica Fox and he got her that tv show Hawthorne which he put up a lot of money and now she still not grateful
They could never make me hate her. She did nothing wrong. Men never get canceled for much much worse!
Thank you!!
This 💯
I got to spend a few hours with Jada, Will, Jaden, Willow and both grandmothers on a casual setting back in '04/'05. First, she had no makeup on and she was absolutely STUNNING in person. Both were hands on parents and very kind to me and their kids and mothers. Will, watch/played with the kids, it was very normal and nice.
Jada’s entire life is based on tall tales. This is why I don’t engage in anything she says.
😂 Like she was a drug dealer? Baltimore ain’t no joke but how she was in a school for talented ppl right after selling drogas?
@@mariecolette170Right 😂
Jada in a different world was everything.💐💐
I always admire how much you raise your subjects up, through your respectfulness and positivity. We need more of this in the world.
OMG, I remember that episode of A Different World with Jada rocking that French Twist. I loved that hairstyle, it’s so 90s. That would be dope to bring the french twist back from the 90s ❤
That hairstyle is so nice I love that still !!
When we look back at all the interviews, we can clearly see that they have been telling us for YEARS that they have been separated living as life partners. Everybody is hating Jada for clearly stating what they have been eluding to. I really feel that people are mad because it’s Jada talking and not Will. Women get embarrassed all the time but not our male heros
💯
They've been talking in circles. Saying "we were separated at the time" gives the impression one is back together. Now she just recently blamed the media not being clear with the story that they've found their way back to each other.
i really admire Jada for creating the space for people to have these conversations about taboo topics. People just have to have a woman to hate and I love that she will do her regardless of the backlash.
I also liked her in tales from the crypt demon knight, she was one of the best parts of that movie.
I don't know, she has this cold hostility about her, I wouldn't even want to be in the same room as her.
Exactly! Icy!
She’s a Virgo cmon!
In my opinion Will and Jada are both talented in their own right! ⭐️
Imo, Jada is using Will and their 2 children as props as her career fades. Her Red Table Talk was canceled. She has no major film projects. Even before her memoir, she humiliated Will on her show with her affair (not "entanglement") with her son's best friend. If the roles were reversed, Will would have been canceled. With her memoir, she's getting major backlash. She wants back into the limelight. But at the cost of Will's career/reputation AND her 2 children's mental health. She's narcissistic to the core.
Yessss 👏🏻
I saw on IG that Red Table Talk will be returning next year
Girl bye. You don't follow them. Facebook cancelled all their talk shows. Will wrote a book in 2021. They have been separated since 2016. You are just jumping on the hater bandwagon.
Well said 👍🏻
my favorite Jada P movie is A Low down dirty Shame" - OMG she was so funny such Light hearted natural comedian without trying too hard. and i think combination between her and Gorgous K I Waynae was just helleries
Girrrll me and my sis been saying we think Jada got Will under a spell (juju) because it don’t make any damn sense how he’s behaving for her. 😂😂
😂😂😂😂thought that too. Lowkey
I agree, but I think her mom is the one doing witch craft and has been manipulating Jada and Will. I think Jada decided to finally unleash her wrath on Will because of her own envy of his success, but also because of his infidelities. I get the sense that Jada’s mom knew how to guilt her into the marriage and made her believe that it was her duty to uplift both her and her mom economically. Will was the meal ticket in her mothers’s eyes.
I loved her in "A Different World" and "A Low Down Dirty Shame". She was smart and sassy in both.
I'm LITERALLY watching Jason's Lyric right now. I was EXPECTING a breakdown on JPS. I don't agree with all of her choices yet she's STILL a great actress to me. I won't deny her beauty nor her talent. I'll see another movie with her before I buy her memoir. The interviews will suffice. ❤
Same! She’s nostalgic to me. I hate how her legacy is turning out, but Jada was that girl for the 90s and early 2000s girls 😢
@@KarineAlourdeMuch agreed! I liked her in Girls Trip too. ❤
She's the one that's responsible and to blame for her so-called "legacy" which she wouldn't even have if she wasn't married to Will Smith. She's just throwing her entire family under the bus and then running them over with it right afterwards too. She can heal without talking about herself publicly, but she's doing it for promotional reasons, not for health purposes. She's selling her book of blatant victimhood for financial and reputational gain. She can clear her name of whatever she feels she needs to clear without looking like a bully that emabarresses her children, her mother, and her husband during the process of wanting to become more popular, not to mention TuPac. @@KarineAlourde
When Red Table Talk first came out, I loved the show. We got a chance to know Jada's mother Gaby and Willow in a way we hadn't seen them before which was pleasant to see generational women doing this. It was a great idea. They covered some tough topics no one discussed and helped others through their traumas as well by opening the platform for them to talk it out. Somehow, things started going left when she started over sharing about her and Will. There is nothing wrong initially with sharing things one has overcome to help others like Gabys drug addiction, difficult times and struggles in the family upbringing, and so forth. Will is now perceived as weak to the public because of what she said and how he responds to it. Jada opened that door, then Will counteracted by writing his book, which was his way of telling the story. Now, nothing they've said can be unheard nor what they've done unseen. I always loved Jada as an actress, and she is a good one. It's a shame it's all over shadowed by this. Yes, Jada and Will have gone through tauma that would have been best handled in private between them so that they couldve told their story from a healed place which would have been more receptive by the public from both of them. That way once healed, any book they would have come out with would be about how they got on the other side and be a help to others....not a joke or something that makes the other look weak but coming ftom a strong place. It's not the story being shared that I'm sure so many folks can relate to that is the real issue, but it is how the story is being told. It should have been shared from an honest and healed place, but it doesn't look to me to be coming from that place.
What you're saying makes COMPLETE sense!
They both are already healed! That's why each of them wrote a book!
Yikes. No way Will can be healed after throwing away his career accomplishments on a moment to slap a jerk on stage on a national tv. He can't possibly healed from that at the time of writing a graphic book about Jada. And saying he's always wanted Jada even during his first marriage is not something a healed person says at the expense of who could be listening like his ex. It's a level of disrespect. So many of his actions or reactions don't come from healing but from a thing called "saving face".
@girlbrittneygirl If I recall Jada said they are STILL healing not healed. Definitely looks and feels different. I know from my own experience. Just because it's being talked about don't mean healed.
I love this comment ❤ and the way u think if everyone had similar ways relationships btw ppl with issues would be handled so much better
This woman is beyond gorgeous 😍 I completely forgot she was in Madagascar!
I truly believe she has something on Will that he needs to protect. Thats why he is so supportive. It is nothing for people to get divorced. I wish them All the very best because when it all comes out it
will be devastating.
"It is nothing for people to get divorced." In what world? It takes a huge emotional and financial toll. And if kids are involved, divorce is the destruction of the only world they know.
We already know he likes hims especially in Dubai, now if he a serial killer that's different
I was today years old when I realized that Chris could’ve been the addition to Will and Jadas bedroom all this time🫢
U should do chilli of tlc next
yes 🙌🏽 She’s on my list too! 😍♥️
Does anyone remember on Red Table Talk when Jada admitted to having “some narcissistic tendencies” ? Or is that just me ? 🤔
People fall back on good friends for marriage when they think they have absolutely no other options in the future. Perhaps they feel time is running out and they want that baby, or that marriage. Then your “best friend” is everything.
I loved her in Kingdom Come, Set It Off, and especially Girls Trips
I really loved her show Hawthorne! Jada is talented and I don't like that people make her to be the only bad person in their relationship.
I agree about the "normal" vows. If I ever remarry, we're coming up with our own vows, and it will be private. Your channel is always so good. I couldn't watch it for awhile, because the smoke was bothering me, but you are so good. I've sent your channel to so many other people. You are very clear and nobody should ever hate you.
In terms of the Tupac marriage proposal: jada says in the book that Tupac wanted something substantial when he was in jail bc she feels he really knew his life was about to end. And he wanted somebody who he knew would take care of his mama.
The thought process doesn't make sense, since marrying someone doesn't guarantee someone will take care of one's parents when one is gone, cause most people focus on grieving their spouse, kids and eventually moving on.
@@sbusisiweshaba1715 And he was engaged to Kidada Jones so is she saying that he didn’t think Kidada would look after his mom? I don’t believe anything she says anymore. It’s all for attention n money.
@@MysCathyHer statement is very contradictory to what we already knew about Tupac's life at the time. It makes me wonder how true it is and if it is true, then it tells a lot about how little Tupac valued Kidada Jones and how unserious he was about their engagement, not to mention heartless of him, to be engaged to a woman and ask another woman to marry him as well.
He didn’t proposed to her Tupac proposed to Quincy jones daughter I think kadafai jones is punching the air
Kidada is Quincy Jones' daughter and Rashida is her little sister.
I loved when Jada and Will first came out and would always coordinate their outfits. For us, it was Will & Jada, Halle & David Justice and Whitney & Bobby.
They were everywhere
Still got love for Will and Jada. They are celebrities and making headlines and maintaining visibility is their business. None of this bothers me it's part of the game!
You have said it all, I don’t know why people are analyzing this very wealthy people’s life to death.
Since she talked about her so called entanglement with August, I consciously stopped watching or listening to anything she is spewing or showing.
I don’t care so much about she and Will’s personal life, really this has been going on since the power love triangle of Cleopatra, Anthony and Cesar, then it became Elizabeth, Richard and Eddie Fisher, then Brad, Jennifer and Angelina.
This is all Hollywood, drama, gossip and inconsequential mundane crap.
These people want you to buy their books.
That’s all.
@@adaoramadike3543 Exactly!
Really? Cause Brad Pitt & Leonardo Di Caprio aren’t out here revealing their business and they, unlike Will & Jada, are still major movie stars. At this point Will & Jada will get laughed off the screen 😆
@@Jamietheroadrunner Correction: NOT YET! Simply because something HASN'T happened doesn't mean that it WON'T happen. All celebrities court drama because high visibility is their bread and butter.
@@SarAbraxas969 Brad Pitt is 60 so I think he’ll be ok 😆
Jada is such a Beautiful, Talented and Important Queen. African American women still get openly attacked for being women, living human lives. Her life is as valuable as any white woman’s. Live your life, Queen. May you continue to Grow in GODMOSTHIGH, and be Blessed.
I think she has really wanted a divorce for a long time and just trying to make him file first
Karine! You just made me like her again. ❤
I feel for Jada too. She is so gorgeous she’s one of my favs . I fell in love with her attitude in Jason’s Lyric. 90s Jada was definitely a different type of sexy ❤.
& Jada said she believes he only asked her bcs he was in prison and needed a woman for the ride.
Ain’t been gorgeous since menace to society
@@powerinpolicy bye.
He already had a fiancee and she was dedicated to him apparently, so Jada's story about it doesn't make sense.
I love your page! Great content, so tastefully done. Great work!
I find it odd Jada claimed to not believe in marriage but seems to want to hold on to her marriage for dear life. Seems like a contradiction.
I feel like she tries hard to be the 'cool girl' when underneath that she is insecure.
Money and power
I think Will's the one who wants to hold on for dear life. In his book, he said he'll never divorce again because he views it as him being a failure. So, yeah, bad marriage for life.
@@MsDezB1 Good Lord Will really said that??? No wonder HE comes off as narcissistic and lost like many celebs. It's because he EXPECTS us to see ourselves in everything he does and that's why he's always had trouble connecting with the black community on a much grounded level.
She was in her 20's, single with no children when she felt that way. She is now in her 50's, married with children, and has built a business, brand, etc... much has changed as it should.
I really enjoyed the DOAC interview with her as well. We all tend to judge the book by its cover, until we open and read that book. Love u Jada🥰💐🌹🌸
😢Jada needs Jesus!!! I feel sad for her. She’s smart intelligent but not wise. I’m praying for her she’s so broken! I just want to hold her and wipes her tears; Jesus can do it. Matthew 3:17♥️ Could you do Debbie Morgan next ?
The gorgeous Debbie Morgan is on my list! ❤
She needs God,all of them
Well said.❤

Karine, love your stories you dig up great info on ppl. I so enjoy your content and love your style. Keep going girl!
I am more concerned about Will Smith and his very shattered image!
I'm from Baltimore also, love my hometown and all of my dear native Baltimoean brothers and sisters in spirit. Jada is a very good friend to my Goddaughter ❤️🤗💯👏👍
All I can think is that she has Will on tape in a compromising position or something…gotta be a disgusting act like underage trafficking..whatever it is, it’s devastating
dude sleeping with p diddy
That's exactly what I'm thinking
How did you know it was jada? When did this happen?
It’s definitely a strategic reason for all of this!
Karine,
Thank you for treating Jada so gracefully in this video. It was well balanced. Many people don't understand the effect that childhood trauma can have. I believe she is trying to balance healing, being a celebrity, and having non-traditional views/opinions. I wish her well, although I wish she would/could seek her healing privately. Her celebrity status will never truly allow for that. There is always someone willing to expose. Some assistant, nanny, family friend will tell it all for a few bucks. So she is doing this very publicly. I too want to be removed from the group chat. Unfortunately, I don't think any of us will be.
Well done, Karine Alourde! Jada is an interesting character, indeed.
Jada is from my City BALITMORE and I love her
Not the slow mo on August saying YES😂😂
Yes. I know exactly what you’re saying. Actors are not just acting in the shows and movies. They have a job to do at all times, control the public and siphon the masses money, whether they are aware of it every time or are manipulated into situations to influence people, idk.
I feel like 5-7 years ago I was saying to myself I am so tired of the Smith family. It’s season 754 of Smith family headline gossip. They’ve got to be one of the elite’s favorite families. They are just glued to the world stage indefinitely. It’s ridiculous! Like rotate a couple families
as an aroace person, I really like that she talked about being that close with tupac while also highlighting that it wasn't romantic or sexual at all. I think it's good to point out that your closest relationships can be platonic or queerplatonic or anything else.
I like Jada she just a strong woman, in my opinion
Same she fought through a lot and still standing !
Thanks Karine, This was a great video. Would you consider doing a video on JFK juinor?
Tupac published love poems about Jada Pinkette Smith! I'm sure he would be co-signing every thing she's saying right now and cussing y'all out 😅
He liked her. But he didn't love her. He wanted Janet. If a guy like Tupac wants you, he gets out of his way to get you, doesn't write a poem about you.
@@Ana-iy8hqhe loved her! he says so in the poetry... maybe do some research 🤦🏽♀️
@@Ana-iy8hqthey literally knew each other as teens before the fame... it was deeper love than the lust you speak of 😅
Thank you!!
I think a lot of the criticism towards Will for slapping Chris has softened after Jada saying they've been separated; it diverted that critcism from Will to Jada. This is huge for Will as an actor. People might forgive him and more people will want to watch his movies. It has turned him into an under-dog to root for. I think what Jada is doing will financially benefit both her and Will.
He didn't slap Chris like Zsa Zsa Gabor. He punched him with a flat fist. Didn't you see how big his hand was?
No means to judge on another ones life. However I understand and have some similar thought. The sacrifices in Hollyweird is unknowing and unbelievable. Psychology at work While evil rears it head. That's EntertainWeirdment🥴 I just can't Almighty Father , Jesus we need you cuz we humans is a mess down here. Everything is Sham!
This is one of the best takes I’ve read on this situation 🙌
Because it really dismantles this online /black Twitter theory that Will is being ‘humiliated’
Like he clearly doesn’t think so the way he his publicly standing by Jada.
Also, the public concern for him shows his popularity is at an all time high. And if that now translates into future projects being a huge success, well then it’s a Hollywood game well played
I love your channel. Please cover Lori Loughlin, Danielle Harris and Kim Catrall
Cause I started with Eartha Kitt and now have ended up watching almost all videos. The learning and also healing myself from the lessons provided in the lives you have beautifully articulate to us made me a FAN OF URS.
Tupac was already engaged to another woman, so this story of him asking her to marry him and also them not having any romamtic attraction is really confusing, the pieces don't logically fit. However if she says, that's what happened then okay. I do think that Jada knew what she wanted at a young age, this marriage should never have happened, but it's also confusing why she stuck it out for 20 something years. Also this separation story sounds a bit crazy. Will felt they could be over but weren't, she says they were over and then he says he got her back and still call each other partners, implying that Jada still doesn't like being married or being called a wife smh. It could all be for clout or money, we can't take Hollywood seriously. Another great video Karine.👏
Jada was stunning when she played Peaches in "Low Down Dirty Shame."
She seems cruel in her words. Thoughtless in how "speaking her truth" would hurt others, esp. Will.
Life is about being true to yourself but also being considerate to others, esp. the ones you purport to love.
Will Smith loves Jada Pinkette Smith! Tupac loved her!! Her husband is supporting her and so would Tupac if he was here! They dgaf about y'all opinions; the truth is the truth period. We should support her (like her husband is doing) whether her story makes us or him uncomfortable or not. It's crazy to me how ppl want to silence her but Will is allowed to write his own memoir and no one makes a peep! Sounds like misogyny to me.
Karine, merci pour cette vidéo. j'ai toujours détesté la façon dont les gens ont accablé jada
You are the nicest, smartest and most open minded woman - I love that. During the first part of this video, I had trouble not allowing myself to say “oh PLEASE!” But the middle and ending were VERY open minded and wise. My period jury has already convicted Jada of over the top narcissism and self promotion/absorption. BUT - there may be a retrial based on your observations. Please know that I’m truly not judgmental-it’s just been a lot with her.
I understand the perspectives and the healing process which is ugly as can be. Being vulnerable and facing the unattractiveness of life does make a difference. The world will learn something from all of this.
WHEN IT COMES TO JADA AND WILL, PEOPLE NEED TO MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS AND LET THEM HEAL BETWEEN THEMSELVES INSTEAD OF LOOKING TO ALWAYS CAUSE DRAMA, LET THEM LIVE IN PEACE!!!❤
I just wonder did Jada really help August Alsina in the long run? Cuz we all know he's been real sick for years and on top of that, raising a few of his nieces... I think his "entanglement" with Jada did more harm than good. He's forever going to be known as Jada's side piece which overshadows his talent.
Edit: when she said I just want to feel good it made me think of Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton in that movie Monster's Ball.
Wasn't Diddy on death row in that movie? Now it's art imitating life. Cuz his career is on death row.
