Will Smith Admits He Was Jealous of Jada Pinkett’s Relationship with Tupac

Will Smith is secure enough in his marriage to Jada Pinkett Smith to admit he was “deeply, deeply insecure” about her relationship with Tupac Shakur.

Will and his “Bad Boys for Life” co-star, Martin Lawrence, stopped by “The Breakfast Club” Monday, where co-host Charlamagne The God asked the former if he was “ever jealous of the love Jada had” for the slain rapper.

His response: “F–k yeah.”

“And you know, that was in the early days. That was in the early days,” he went on. “That was a big regret for me, too, ’cause I could never open up to interact with Pac… They grew up together and they loved each other, but they never had a sexual relationship. But they had come into that age where now that was a possibility, and then Jada was with me.”

Jada and Tupac met at The Baltimore School for the Arts when they were both students. She’s said in the past that they did once share a “disgusting kiss” and decided to keep their relationship platonic.

Even though he knows their connection was never romantic, Will still felt some type of way about it because he knew Jada held Tupac in such high regard.

“She just loved him,” he explained. “He was the image of perfection, but she was with the Fresh Prince, so you know, it was like, I never could… We were in the room together a couple times, I couldn’t speak to him. And you know, he wasn’t going to speak to me if I wasn’t going to speak to him.”

Despite Jada’s best effort to bring the guys together — “Ya’ll are so similar!” — the two were never able to connect because Will simply “couldn’t handle it.”

“I was the soft rapper from Philly, and he was Pac,” he recalled, reiterating that not forging a relationship with the West Coast hip-hop legend is still one of his biggest regrets. “I was deeply, deeply insecure. I wasn’t man enough to handle that relationship.”

Will met Jada on the set of “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” in 1994. Tupac was shot dead in 1996, and the Smiths were married the following year.

“Bad Boys for Life” hits theaters Jan. 17.

America’s Got Talent: The Champions 5th Judge: Simon Steals Howie’s Golden Buzzer for Stupid Act

Image
Tonight, it was Howie Mandel’s turn to man the golden buzzer on “America’s Got Talent: The Champions.” At least, that is, until Simon Cowell decided to steal it from him. There are advantages to being the boss. It was something we’d never seen before on “AGT.” After it went down, Terry Crews asked Heidi Klum if she loved the act as much as Simon — who was giddy throughout their performance — and Howie interjected, “No one does.” He may be right, as Alesha Dixon concurred that she’d never seen Simon love an act as much as this one … enough to steal someone else’s golden buzzer! Luckily, the night was filled with other acts that were absolutely fantastic, including some recent “AGT” favorites like Ryan Niemiller and Luke Islam. There was danger, magic, and one of the most incredible vocalists to ever hit any stage. And poor Howie, after having his buzzer stolen, found two more acts in the show that he would have loved to hit that button for. Luckily, America had his back. Fair w

The Jonas brothers have recreated what is, arguably, the best moment in television history: Kim and Khloe Kardashian’s legendary purse fight on ‘KUWTK.’ Even Kim and Khloe themselves felt compelled to comment. The Jonas Brothers : not just musicians, but excellent actors as well. Joe Jonas , 30, and Nick , 27, teamed up to recreate the iconic purse showdown from Keeping Up with the Kardashians , which Joe shared to his Instagram on Jan. 13! It’s a faithful television-to-Instagram adaptation: the scene starts on Joe, who bursts through the door and mouths to a voice-over of Kim Kardashian , 39, “Dont be f–cking rude!” He thwacks his fanny pack at Nick, who’s playing Khloe , as Kourtney could be heard screaming in the background, “Are you kidding me!?…STOP!” To fans’ amusement, Nick voiced these words instead. “I swear to God, don’t be f—ing rude to me…I’ll f–ing hurt you,” Kim — or in this case, Nick — says, and proceeds to punch his brother. At the end of the brawl, Kevin , 32, non
