“Will Smith Gave Me His Blessings”, August Alsina Confirms Being In An Open Relationship With Jada Pinkett Smith

Singer, August Alsina claims he had an affair with Jada Pinkett Smith after her husband, Will Smith, allegedly gave the relationship his blessing.

While representatives for Jada Pinkett Smith said Alsina’s claims are “absolutely not true,” Alsina has opened up on the alleged affair in an interview with The Breakfast Club’s Angela Yee.

August Alsina said: “I actually sat down with Will (Smith) and had a conversation due to the transformation from their marriage to life partnership … he gave me his blessing.”

He continued, “I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life, and I truly and really, really deeply love and have a ton of love for her. I devoted myself to it, I gave my full self to it so much so to the point that I can die right now and be OK with knowing that I truly gave myself to somebody”.

He concluded with, “And I really loved a person, I experienced that and I know what that feels like and some people never get that in this lifetime. I know that I am completely blessed and this conversation is difficult because it is so much, that it would be hard for people to understand but, once it starts to affect me and my livelihood, I have to speak up about my truth.”

August Alsina, 27, was introduced to Jada Pinkett Smith, 48, in 2015 by her son Jaden. He said the two became very close, even holidaying with the Smith family in Hawaii in 2016 and attending the 2017 BET Awards together.

There was speculation that Alsina’s 2009 song “Nunya” was about Jada Pinkett Smith. It had lines like: “Why is you textin me / Asking who next to me / Why you care about who having sex with me / Now you all on my line, why you pressing me?”

August Alsina even went on to describe Jada Pinkett Smith as “God’s divinity” on her 47th birthday which was last year. It is not clear when their alleged affair ended.

During the Breakfast Club interview, Angela Yee questioned, “Is it disappointing that she (Jada Pinkett Smith) never addressed it to you, because like you said, you lost out on opportunities?”

August Alsina answered saying, “I really can’t even get into the thought of that because I am only responsible for myself, right,” Alsina replied. “And I am only responsible for, you know, what I do. When I am repressing and suppressing things and it starts to affect me, I have to address it. I just always stay solid because I never want to be the person to start confusion.”

“Contrary to what people may believe, I am not a troublemaker. I don’t like drama. Drama actually makes me nauseous”.

“I have lost money, friendships, relationships behind it and I think it is because people don’t necessarily know the truth. But I have never done anything wrong.”

He added talking about the Smith family, “I love those people literally like my family. I don’t have a bad thing to say about them. They are beautiful people.”

So far, Will Smith hasn’t talked about this yet and his representatives are also keeping mute based on what August Alsina said.

But Will and Jada has been known to be in an “Open Relationship” with their marriage. As they’re both not connected romantically but as a mother and father to their children.
