Their relationship was never meant to last – Jada Pinkett Smith, 52, has recently been expressing her admiration for her late friend Tupac Shakur in a unique way.
The “Girls Trip” actress confessed to Rolling Loud’s Christal Jordan on Thursday that she and Tupac were “soulmates,” but clarified that their connection lacked the necessary romantic spark. Tupac, who was murdered on September 13, 1996, had previously described Jada as his soulmate.
“We have soulmates – our children can be our soulmates,” Pinkett Smith responded when asked if she considered Tupac to be a soulmate. “There are different definitions of soulmates.”
During the candid conversation, Pinkett Smith admitted that she and Tupac did share moments of romance, but she never felt it was right.
“I wish I could make people understand,” Pinkett Smith said about the lack of spark between her and Tupac. “And I know it’s hard to believe, but it wasn’t just me. It was him too.”
“It was almost like God made us that way. It’s like, ‘Look, we’ll put you together, alright? You’re going to be a dynamic duo, but I’ll tell you right now: I’m going to make it so you can’t be together,’ because that wasn’t the purpose,” she explained.
Pinkett Smith, who is currently promoting her upcoming memoir “Worthy,” also joked, “If there is such a thing as past lives, I definitely think Pac and I have traveled together in various forms.”
Police recently charged Duane “Keefe D” Davis, a former confidante of Tupac, with his murder, almost 20 years after the Las Vegas Strip shootout that took Tupac’s life.
Jada Pinkett Smith and Tupac became close friends while attending the Baltimore School for the Arts. Pinkett Smith also appeared in his “Keep Ya Head Up” and “Temptations” music videos. She posted $100,000 bail when Tupac was convicted for sexual abuse in 1994.
Pinkett Smith and the “Hit ‘Em Up” rapper maintained a close friendship for many years. She has previously revealed that she met Tupac when she was a drug dealer.
She also paid tribute to him on his birthday in 2021 with a never-before-seen poem.
Pinkett has been married to “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” star Will Smith for 19 years, but she recently revealed that they have been separated for the past seven years, including during his infamous Oscars slap.
“Worthy” will be released on Oct. 17
