The Smiths have been consistently making headlines since Will’s infamous Oscars incident spun Twitter into a frenzy. Now, Jaden Smith is the latest family member to get their viral moment.
Will Smith set the internet ablaze with his now-infamous slapping incident at the 2022 Oscars. As with most unbelievable moments in pop culture, the jaw-dropping scene resulted in many recreations, commentary, and memes.
In the aftermath of the patriarch’s actions, his son Jaden Smith has created a bit of a frenzy of his own. And it seems that his latest interview appearance granted Twitter a front-row seat at the roast of Jaden Smith.

Along with his rapping/singing/acting career, Jaden is no stranger to headlines as he made waves for his clean water initiative, Just Water, and donning a white Batman costume to Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s wedding. But, his latest appearance on a radio show has him in the hot seat with Twitter.
During his appearance on the iconic Big Boy’s Neighborhood, the young Smith was interviewed about a slew of topics, including his father, Will Smith, Tupac proposing to his mother, Jada Pickett-Smith, and being raised by famous parents.
After mentioning that his parents always told him that “he can fly” from an early age, he pivoted a bit, explaining that Will and Jada would include him in essential meetings to give his voice more authority. Doubling down on his, Jaden then talked about why he is happy that he grew up speaking to more adults rather than kids.
