Actor Jada Pinkett Smith has opened up about the unexpected Oscars incident in 2022, where her husband Will Smith slapped comedian Chris Rock. In an interview with People magazine, Pinkett Smith expressed her surprise at the incident, initially thinking it was part of a skit.

Pinkett Smith’s revelation comes ahead of the release of her new memoir, “Worthy,” by HarperCollins imprint Dey Street Books later this month. The actress broke her silence about the Oscars incident in the interview, shedding light on the context behind the altercation.
During the awards show, Rock made a joke about Pinkett Smith’s shaved hair, which is due to her experiencing alopecia. Smith, evidently upset, walked onstage and struck Rock.

After the Oscars, when she and Smith were alone, Pinkett Smith asked him about his well-being. Although they are still navigating their relationship, she emphasized their deep love for each other and their commitment to figuring out what works best for them.
In addition to discussing the Oscars incident, Pinkett Smith also opened up about her mental health struggles in the People interview. She shared that she has battled depression and even contemplated suicide. Pinkett Smith revealed that she had abandoned her mental health treatment when she met Will, believing that her relationship with him had cured her.
However, as Pinkett Smith reached the age of 40, she found herself in immense pain and unable to see a way out. She confessed that she had made plans for taking her own life. It was only when she started using the psychedelic drug ayahuasca that her suicidal thoughts subsided.
According to Pinkett Smith, ayahuasca allowed her to establish a deep and introspective connection with herself that she had never experienced before. She also shared that both Will Smith and their adult children have also used ayahuasca.
