Will Smith and Jada Pinkett have been married for eight years, as of New Year's Eve. Will has the go-ahead from Jada to go outside the marriage, and apparently, Jada enjoys the same courtesy. There is ONE condition: There can be no side-action by either party without prior permission. In an interview with the "New York Post", Will said, "Our perspective is, you don't avoid what's natural. You're going to be attracted to people. In our marriage vows, we didn't say, 'forsaking all others'. The vow that we made was that you will never hear that I did something after the fact. If it came down to it, then one spouse can say to the other, 'Look, I need to have s*x with somebody. I'm not going to if you don't approve of it. . . but please approve of it." Will and Jada work harder than most couples to stay together. Will says, "I spend hours reading, studying. And my wife and I talk about things that work. . . and don't work. I don't let a day go past that Jada doesn't feel like the queen of the world. I make sure every single day that she knows how I feel about her." After Will showed his manly physique in a shower scene in "I, Robot", Jada was motivated to start hitting the gym herself. She said, "Nope, you're not catching me out there, slipping out of shape. All them thunderkittens got to see my man in that movie. I gotta go get in shape."

that's a ridiculous thing to do. their not a married couple. their just cut buddies with a license and some offspring. that's lack of disrespect and total superficiality.

OK so will and jada have set rules in their relationships. If it helps them last as a married couple more power to them. I say think on this, who wants to bet they last longer than any other high profile celebrity marriage. They will probably last longer than the marriages of most famous preachers and other top figures.

But talk about something better than that. How can you not want to be affiliated with someone you claim to love? For fear of what people might say you want to keep everything you and that person feel in the dark? What since does that make? I guess the words of others are stronger than your love.

forget will come back to me jada!!!

We live in a Materialistic world and thanx for sharing what is in the world for people to know what is going on which is not rare. Many married couples live seperate lives. I have family that have been doing that for 30, 40, 50 yrs.
Many of us do.

what kinda marriage is that? if will or jada feels like having s*x, why not hvae s*x with each other? oh, i guess thats old fashioned. I think this sets a bad example, because i think black people need to see a black marriage that works, but jada and will are setting a bad example of that, i think.

Wow, interesting story. I did not know that. As Dominique said who are we to judge, we can only see that this is an example of what goes on in marriages from a different aspect.

??? What? They must not be together now. I know that I dont agree with that even if later on, if my wife ask to do anything like that, I would say no. I mean HELL NO!!!

I do not like judging ppl, but this is crazy. If they wanted to continue sowing their wild oats, they should have remained single for a little longer. You marry someone because you believe you have found a person who embodies everything you desire and can complete you, this means s*xually and spiritually. Maybe they only complete each other spiritually. Oh well. I rather wait for someone to complete me, rather than settle and seek.
