Jada Pinkett Smith got together with SiriusXM’s “Sway In The Morning” to promote her new movie Girls Trip, while on the show she talked about her issues with the Tupac biopic “All Eyez On Me.”
After expressing her distaste on twitter about the film, not many backed her up on the claim.
She went to say that their relationship was completely misrepresented.
“Pac and I’s relationship was about survival,” she said. “That’s how it started. I know that most people want to always connect it in this romance thing and that’s just because they don’t have the story.”
She went on to talk about ‘the life’ and how she had experienced something bad, apparently as she was leaving she saw Tupac get more involved and eventually watched it become his demise.
“As I was coming out of the life, he was coming more into the life,” Pinkett Smith said. “I was coming out, he was going in, there was a point at which we met and then we were kind of going our separate ways.”
According to Smith, she felt that it was god that led her away from her crime life. She moved on and progressed in life, but when she looked back she noticed that Tupac hadn’t done the same.
“A couple days ago I had to just lay that down too and realize this is God’s work,” she said. “It’s not for me to protect his legacy.”
Smith also mentioned that she planned on writing a book about the untold relationship between her and the late rapper, to finally clear up rumors and lies that people have led others on the believe.
“There’s a lot of components to our story that we’ve never shared for a very specific reason,” she said. “I just decided that this one little piece was important to share finally because it gives more insight to who we were.”
Hopefully her book sheds light on a Tupac no one has seen before, a more sensitive soul than portrayed in his music.
