Jada Pinkett Smith quotes about
I met my husband, Will Smith, when I was 19 and auditioned to be his date on 'The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.' They said I was too short to play the part.
I just want pieces of the world.
What makes Will the best father in the world to me is that he's there, not just there in a way that's traditional. The emotional support he offers his children is immeasurable.
Worry about being respected, never worry about being liked because that's the trap.
I try my best to confront situations because I know, at the end of the day, you can deal with it or it will deal with you. I've had enough experience to know that that's how it goes down. There's no going around it.
That to me is happiness when I feel like I am loved and I have a place to love deeply. That to me is happiness.
Women, you can have it all - a loving man, devoted husband, loving children, a fabulous career.
At 3 years old, I was telling people that I was going to be a star. I never had a plan B. And I've never compromised my integrity to get what I have.
Will is a very interesting, unique man, and I'll tell you why. He makes love like a woman. He loves to touch, massage and feel. He makes love like he's in touch with himself, who he is. And he's a very sensual, incredible lovemaker.
If I had my way, I'd wear jewelry, a great pair of heels and nothing else.
When my husband of almost 20 years can’t take his eyes off me? That’s amazing,
When my husband of almost 20 years can’t take his eyes off me? That’s amazing. But the number one reason I go to the gym is because it keeps me sane; I can deal with whatever’s coming at me.
We have to nurture our young women and understand the beauty and the strength of being a woman. It's kind of a catch-22: Strength in women isn't appreciated, and vulnerability in women isn't appreciated. It's like, 'What the hell do you do?' What you do is you don't allow anyone to dictate who you are.
How can we ask for our young stars to have a high level of responsibility if we are not demonstrating that same level of responsibility towards them?
