Will Smith admitted how jealous he was of Tupac
Jada and Tupac were childhood friends, they went to the same class at an art school in Baltimore, and they stayed friends even after they both became famous
Will Smith (53) and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith (50) often find themselves the target of public attention when they start taking out all their ‘dirty laundry’.
Namely, the famous actor now spoke openly in his own memoirs about the beginnings of their relationship, and he also mentioned Jada's friendship with the late rapper Tupac Shakur.
Jada and Tupac were childhood friends, they went to the same class at an art school in Baltimore, and they stayed friends even after they both became famous.
They were never in a love affair, but still, Smith writes in the book about how that friendship used to bother him.
- Although they were never intimate, their mutual love was legendary. At the beginning of our relationship, their connection was torture to me. He was Pac, and I was me - the book says.
Smith also explained how Tupac had a fearless passion that enchanted and described him as moral and willing to fight or die for what he believed in.
"Pac was like my older brother Harry, he evoked the perception of a coward I had in me. I hated that I was not what he was in the world and that made me angry and jealous. I wanted Jada to experience me that way. When Jada and I entered into a serious relationship, and the needs of that relationship made her less accessible to Paco, my immature mind experienced it as a victory. Jada was a role model, the culmination and queen of queens. If she chose me over Tupac, there's no way I'm a coward. Rarely have I felt so validated, ” he admitted.
He also wrote that he had been in the same room with Tupac several times, but that they had never spoken.
- The way Jada loved him resulted in us just not being friends. I was immature - it is written in the memoirs of the famous actor.
