Jada Pinkett-Smith Recalls Her Friendship with Tupac, Calls Him Like A "Father"

Jada Pinkett-Smith sat down with Arsenio Hall on Friday night and opened up about her close friendship with Tupac. People know that Tupac and Jada Pinkett-Smith had a close relationship but nobody really knows to what extent. On Friday night, Jada Pinkett-Smith opens up to Arsenio about how close they really were and even relates to Tupac to a father figure in her life.

“Pac was probably one of the first male figures that I had in my life that saw the beauty and the talent and my intelligence, separated from sex. That’s something that a young girl usually gets from her father; I didn’t have that.”
