Will Smith Says Jada Pinkett Smith Didn't Tell Him About Oscars Boycott Video

Description

Will Smith recalls being bombarded by paparazzi when he stepped off a plane in Thailand last month...and all because of wife Jada Pinkett Smith . The 44-year-old actress had just posted on her Facebook page a video in which she vowed to boycott the 2016 Oscars and criticized the Academy over a lack of diversity, following the nominations of an all-white group of actors . "I was out of the country when she made the video," Will said on BBC Radio 1 's Breakfast Show Tuesday. He said, once he got off the plane and was bombarded by paparazzi, he got in his car and googled the video. He then said, ""I was like, 'Honey, is there anything you need to tell me?' She said, 'Oh, I didn't want to bother you on vacation.'"
