The lovely Jada Pinkett-Smith is on the cover of Uptown Magazine where she discusses her family life among other things:
On Ending Her Music Career
“I miss [my music career] tremendously, but it’s one of those things that I wear with a badge of honor because it expresses what I prioritize, and that’s my family.”
“When Jaden did The Pursuit of Happyness, I was supposed to go on tour with Guns N’ Roses in Europe.”
“It was probably the most heartbreaking experience. But what I realized is that sometimes God will place things in your life that will make you recognize what your priorities are. I adore my son; he’s my soul seed. There was no way that I was going to allow him to do [a movie] and not have his mother.”
On The “Stage Parent” Rumors
“There are so many other kids you can worry about. My kids? They’re going to be all right. I get why people would criticize. But people need to know that Will and I would never put our children in a situation that would bring them detriment,”
“If I survived everything that I survived in Baltimore and Will survived everything he survived in Philly, these kids surely can survive the Hollywood game.”
