August Alsina Says Will Smith Approved of His Affair With Jada Pinkett-Smith
August Alsina sent social media on a meltdown when he revealed in a recent interview that Will Smith approved of his affair with Jada Pinkett-Smith.
The singer opened up on the alleged affair in an interview with “The Breakfast Club’s” Angela Yee, saying, “I actually sat down with Will [Smith] and had a conversation due to the transformation from their marriage to life partnership … he gave me his blessing.”
Recall that the 27-year-old was introduced to Pinkett in 2015 by her son Jaden. Now, Alsina claims that they became close, even vacationing with the family in Hawaii in 2016 and attending the 2017 BET Awards together.
He claims he fell in love with Pinkett, saying “I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life, and I truly and really, really deeply love and have a ton of love for her. I devoted myself to it, I gave my full self to it — so much so to the point that I can die right now and be okay with knowing that I truly gave myself to somebody.”
“And I really loved a person, I experienced that and I know what that feels like — and some people never get that in this lifetime,” Alsina continued. ” I know that I am completely blessed and this conversation is difficult because it is so much, that it would be hard for people to understand but — once it starts to affect me and my livelihood — I have to speak up about my truth.”
Alsina even described Pinkett as “God’s divinity” on her 47th birthday. It is not clear when their alleged affair ended.
This new interview was made to promote Alsina’s new YouTube doc “StateofEMERGEncy: The Rise of August Alsina” to promote his new album “The Product III:stateofEMERGEncy.”
And during the interview, Yee questioned, “Is it disappointing that she [Pinkett] never addressed it to you, because like you said, you lost out on opportunities?”
“I really can’t even get into the thought of that because I am only responsible for myself, right,” Alsina responded. “And I am only responsible for, you know. what I do. When I am repressing and suppressing things and it starts to affect me. I have to address it. I just always stay solid because I never want to be the person to start confusion.”
New Orleans native Alsina’s 2009 song “Nunya,” which sparked speculation it was about Pinkett with lines like “Why is you textin me / Asking who next to me / Why you care about who having sex with me / Now you all on my line, why you pressing me?”
During the interview Alsina also revealed, “Contrary to what people may believe, I am not a troublemaker. I don’t like drama. Drama actually makes me nauseous.
“And I also don’t think that it is ever important for people to know what I do, who I sleep with, who I date … but in this instance it is very different because as I said, there are so many people that are sid-eyeing me, looking at me questionable [sic].
“I have lost money, friendships, relationships behind it and I think it is because people don’t necessarily know the truth. But I have never done anything wrong.”
He added of the Smith family, “I love those people literally like my family. I don’t have a bad thing to say about them. They are beautiful people.”
Meanwhile, Jada Pinkett Smith’s representative told Page Six that the alleged affair was “Absolutely not true!!”
