Martin Lawrence and Will Smith came through for a chat with The Breakfast Club about their upcoming sequel Bad Boys for Life. One unexpected topic that came up during the chat was whether or not Will was ever jealous of his wife Jada Pinkett Smith's relationship with Tupac Shakur.
After being asked if he was ever jealous of the love Jada had for Pac, Smith replied with:
Oh, f*ck yeah
He then continued with "Oh my god, that dude. And you know that was in the early days, too. That was a big regret for me because I could never open up to interact with Pac."
"We had a little bit of a thing because they grew up together and they loved each other but they never had a sexual relationship," Smith added. "But then come into that age where now that was a possibility, and Jada was with me, so Pac had a little thing on that. But she just loved him, he was the image of perfection but she was with the Fresh Prince."
Smith also claims that this made things awkward between himself and Pac, despite Jada's insistence that the two shared a lot in common.
"That was a huge regret of mine, I couldn't handle it," he remarked. "I was the soft rapper from Philly, and he was Pac. Know what I mean?" He admitted he "wasn't man enough" to handle their relationship, and that he was "deeply insecure."
Honestly, we can understand that. Having to measure up against Pac is something most men would struggle with in the same position...
