Some tea is about to be spilled by Jada Pinkett Smith, and it seems like it’s about her own recent drama!
If you’re not caught up to speed, August Alsina sat down for a chat with The Breakfast Club‘s Angela Yee where the singer revealed his alleged affair with Will Smith‘s wife and confirmed the longtime couple is in an open marriage. Furthermore, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air star gave the August and Jada “his blessing!”

She tweeted on Thursday afternoon:
“There’s some healing that needs to happen…so I’m bringing myself to The Red Table.”
Obviously, Twitter users are speculating about the specifics of what she’ll choose to share during her upcoming Red Table Talk for Facebook AND when it will all go down. It was only yesterday when her rep told Page Six that the allegations of an affair with the 27-year-old musician are “absolutely not true!”
This week’s bombshell came after rumors that the two have been involved privately for YEARS and was widely assumed to be platonic. In 2019, the New Orleans native’s remix of the song Nunya referenced an unnamed “actress” who was “putting on a show” and didn’t want “the world to know.” Obviously, this fueled the flames that there was something going on behind the scenes!
In an attempt to clear his name, August opened up about their romance:
“People can have whatever ideas that they like. But what I’m not OK with is my character being in question… Contrary to what some people may believe, I’m not a troublemaker. I don’t like drama. Drama actually makes me nauseous. I also don’t think that it’s ever important for people to know what I do, who I sleep with, who I date, right? But in this instance, there are so many people who are side-eyeing me… I’ve lost money, friendships, relationships behind it. And I think it’s because people don’t necessarily know the truth. But I’ve never done anything wrong. I love those people [the Smiths] … They are beautiful people.”
According to the I Love This S**t artist, Will and Jada are “life partners” and were both on-board with the concept of an open relationship:
“I actually sat down with Will and had a conversation … He gave me his blessing. And I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life, and I truly and really, really, deeply loved and have a ton of love for her [Jada]. I devoted myself to it. I gave my full self to it. So much so that I can die right now, and be OK knowing that I fully gave myself to somebody… Some people never get that in this lifetime.”
Wow!! He really fell deep!
Ch-ch-check out more from August (below):
Will and Jada are one of Hollywood’s longest-lasting and favorite couples! After briefly meeting on the set of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air in 1994 when Jada auditioned for a role, they began dating the following year and got hitched in 1997. Together, they share daughter Willow and son Jaden, and Will’s son Trey from a past relationship.
Thoughts, y’all?? We’re definitely intrigued to see what Jada has to say!!
