According to Jada Pinkett-Smith 2Pac and Will Smith could’ve been close friends had Pac survived the fatal 1996 Las Vegas shooting.
Jada sat down earlier this week with Jay Shetty for an episode of his On Purpose podcast where she predicted that ‘Pac and Will would’ve been good friends who had “a lot to offer each other.”
Pinkett Smith also explained that 2Pac lent his stamp of approval when she started dating Will without saying a word.
“If ‘Pac had survived Vegas, he and Will would’ve ended up being really good friends,” she said. “They would’ve had a lot to offer each other. Funny enough, Will was the only person when I started dating him, ‘Pac never said anything.
“If I dated anybody else, ‘Pac had something to say. He didn’t think anybody was good enough, which I understand. But when I started dating Will, he didn’t say anything. Which meant to me, in his own way, he approved. He didn’t say anything. Not a word, which made me believe he approved.”
