Jada Pinkett Smith had taken the tinsel town by storm after she had confessed to having a relationship with singer August Alsina while she was separated from Will Smith for a brief period of time. The Nutty Professor actress was quoted by The Daily Mail to reveal on the show, “Four and a half years ago... I started a friendship with August. We actually became really, really good friends. It all started with him just needing some help, me wanting to help his health, his mental state. From there as time went on, I got into a different kind of entanglement with August. It was a relationship, absolutely. I was in a lot of pain, and I was very broken. Now in the process of that relationship, I definitely realized that you can’t find happiness outside of yourself.”
