Jada Pinkett-Smith’s relationship with Tupac Shakur stretches back decades. The actress/talk show host met the slain Hip Hop legend on her first day at Baltimore School of the Arts, and they quickly became friends.
Although there was a “disgusting kiss” they once shared, they remained strictly plutonic friends until his untimely demise.
During a recent interview with MTV, Pinkett-Smith briefly touched on her feelings toward ‘Pac and admitted he’s never far from her thoughts.
After all, Shakur is the one who told the Hughes brothers she’d be perfect for a role in 1993’s Menace II Society. Although ‘Pac had a falling out with the Hughes brothers and didn’t end up starring in the film, it wound up being Pinkett-Smith’s “first big break.”
His 1996 death proved to be extremely difficult for her.
“There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think about Pac,” she said at the 6:20-minute mark. “I think about him every single day.”
Pinkett-Smith often talks about ‘Pac. In a July 2017 interview with Sway In The Morning, she admitted she was a drug dealer when she met the rap luminary.
“It’s kind of hard because I haven’t really told the whole story,” Pinkett-Smith said. “One of the things that’s very interesting that I’ve never really said before is that when I first met ‘Pac … when we first met, I was a drug dealer.”
Their relationship was portrayed in the 2017 ‘Pac biopic All Eyez On Me, but Pinkett-Smith wasn’t pleased with the “reimagining” of their time together, which she made clear in a series of tweets. She plans on detailing more of her time with ‘Pac in an upcoming book.
Using Tupac’s name for clout. This woman is an idiot. Ever hear her talk when she’s not reading a script with words someone else wrote for her? Total bimbo.
Red Table Talk she has a whole show. I know you probably young and don’t know who she is but it’s cool. Look up Different World where her and Pac share a scene
PAC
I just remember falling head over heels for her when Jason’s Lyric and Menace To Society dropped. I used to tell myself I was going to marry her one day lol!
@ Decateur made – cool they did a scene. But didn’t Tupac really like her? The whole time and she brushed him off like Janet Jackson did? Janet as soon as Poetic Justice was done didn’t even gi Pac her number etc? I think Jada should think about Will Smith not Tupac
Outlets seem to say they’re in an open relationship or were….(her and Will). Not my avenue. I’d hubby the hell out of her
This weirdo bitch with her transitioning talentless son. She said in an interview that she had a vaginal reconstruction surgery so it would be like she was 16 again. That’s some seriously creepy shit. Living in a drag show household with her cuck husband who hasn’t had a hit since Chris Rock player Pookie.
Will hasn’t had a hit since Chris Rock played Pookie?
Uhm AFTER that 1989 movie..ALL of Will’s movies were made.
And ALL were box office hits. He remained the highest paid actor in Hollywood for only a decade from those movies.
Smh.
Recent hits or not, Will Smith has made the sort of money most people can only dream of.
Get out of here with that useless hating, jealous attitude you loser.
Lmao this old dusty bitch is a cornball just like will. The older they get the more corny they sound smh. Saying anything for attention smh will please come get this dusty old tramp
???
You wife is still thinking about the guy was dicking her down years later
Will need to get his wife in check.
News Flash: Men don’t have control over women.
Sexist ass fool…
To play devil’s advocate to the Young bucks out there.. y’all talk at times as if older Peep’s loose mind or style of self and or sell out.. What the fuck makes you all think you won’t grow and age get old and die and your kids and other kids like you will say same shit you saying now. Have some fucking respect. That’s the difference between us and you. We got respect by earned. You just want it for nothing. Now you look up to rappers in dress and purse. Fucked ijbthe ass for contract and selling there soul. I’d rather live broke then sell my soul.. Ignorance is Bliss and y’all some happy mofos….
These have the be the dumbest comments. Jada Pinkett using Pac name for clout? Hummm..its only known fact that he adored the hell out of Jada!
Jada Pinkett needs to use no one’s name for clout. She has been a sought after actress for damn near 2 decades. Her husband, the legendary Will Smith was equal to her clout at the time they married. They are a power couple…long b4 yall act like Jay & Bey made that famous.
Anyway. Put some respect on her name…like it or not. Put some on Will name..then read to find out how respected she was, especially by Pac.
Uninformed folk kill me. So woke, they know everything about a time they never lived in. I am sure only kids are posting this crap. Bc although we may see Jada and Will to have become weird…still their name deserves RESPECT.
She clearly married the wrong man
Clearly not, you fool.
You do realise you can be extremely close to a member of the opposite sex and not see them as being a partner, right?
Grow up and get out of here with that TMZ gossip mentality.
Guys I just want to say congratulations, we finally got rid of Triple Phi OG that queer hasn’t posted anything in a minute. Let’s keep it up AndyC84 is next.
