“Celebrity Gossip and Entertainment industry news”
Will Smith opened up about his marriage to Jada Pinkett of 11 years. In an intimate interview with Now Magazine (UK), he talks about being honest and open with his wife, even about being attracted to other women…
“Our perspective is, you don’t avoid what’s natural and you’re going to be attracted to people” Will explains.”So sometimes we have the discussion: “Wow, this or that girl is freaking gorgeous”. I’m not going to say anything to my buddies that’s any different than what I say to my wife.”
Will said that if he ever comes to a point where he can’t resist having sex with someone else other than his wife, he would want to first get approval from Jada before even thinking about cheating on her.
“If it came down to it, then one would say to the other: Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now I’m not going to do it if you don’t approve of it,” he says.
“In our marriage vows, we didn’t say “forsaking all others”. We said, “You will never hear I did something afterwards”. Because if that happens, the relationship is destroyed.”
Will confessed that he doesn’t know if he would accept the fact that Jada would want to be with another man. “I don’t know how I’d feel,” he confesses. “But I know I would react better than if I found out about it afterwards.”
So, I have to ask my readers this…HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT BEING “OPEN” WITH YOUR SPOUSE? IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP SIMILAR TO THE “SMITHS”? WOULD YOU WANT YOUR SPOUSE TO TELL YOU IF HE/SHE HAD A DESIRE TO SLEEP WITH SOMEONE ELSE?
Speak on it! I’m curious to hear your thoughts about this subject…
THANKS SIMONE FOR THE ARTICLE!

Do you guys remember that wonderful couple Ruby Dee and Ossie Davis? They were together for 56 years until he passed away. She says in her book that in the beginning of their relationship they both consented to an open relationship later they both agreed that practicing monogamy was what was best for their relationship and that they should have never had an open relationship to begin with. I can understand the part about being attracted to another person because once you get married you are not blind and it is only natural to appreciate another person’s beauty, but lusting after others and allowing your partner to sleep with someone else in my opinion, is a desecration and the start of destruction to your marriage. I guess it really depends on how you view sex and the covenant of marriage. Sex is not just sex it is a spiritual and deep act, and to have someone else come in your marriage and experience that with your spouse is Ludicrous!
You see how when the tables are turned and they ask WIll about how he would feel if Jada wanted to two step out of their relationship….his ass had to pause and ponder on that!
Not cool. My husband (ex) could have the desire – but to cross the line and go through with it is another story entirely. Would never meet with my approval but I would respect being told in advance.
Her foot looks grossly deformed in this picture. She should have arched it.
Open marriage. What fun! Sounds great if this was the freakin’ dark ages. I’m sorry Jada and Will, aside from the entire point of MARRIAGE ….there is just too many things out there (AIDS, HERPES, WARTS, need I go on…) to think it’s cool to take sex outside of a marriage that would be sacred. Yes, it’s normal to be attracted to others, but you have to draw the line. I wonder if their kids are embarrassed. I know I would be!
Okay, you guys really hit this on the nail Opinions27, Ceecee and Sumarain. He (and she) are definitely tripping on this so called “open” marriage. Regardless of whether you changed your vows to suit your nasty mentality, you still have to answer to the man upstairs because their is only one way to act between a husband and wife, Monogamously!!
This really shows immaturity, selfishness, lust and on his part. there is a reward for this type of lifestyle, I just hope they see it before it happens and stop this foolishness because STDs do not discriminate.
I would love to have an ‘open conversation’ with my husband. NOT an open relationship…..this would only make our ‘role playing’ alot better cuz I have an idea to work with. I agree w/ Opinions just because you get married, that does not instantly blind you. But it should make you think twice about cheating on your partner. That’s why its always a good idea to communicate w/ your partner about everything & anything BEFORE you get married. Even other men or women….the more honest you are the more likely your relationship is to survive. BETRAYAL is the worst of all emotions!
I know, how can you sleep at night? And Go-Getta, we shouldn’t knock Will, Jada is down with it so it’s the BOTH of them….
will & jada I will be praying for you both…I’am not going to judge you..I love you both…you and your wife are very successful and seem to be lovable people…I’am a big fan so there for I will keep you in my prayers.

well first of all i would like to say my hat goes off to Jada and Will you guys are aweome couples, well i feel like this that love between each other is very special
what you guys like is totally up to you don’ judge that up to the lord to judge you on judgement day. All i can n say is keep your hands in God’s hand because he has the Master Plan!! you have to be Spiritual connected to one another and then you would not have to worry about lusting after another women because Jada will be all you need. When a man finneth a Wife, he finest a good thing!!!

OK LOOK! I’VE HAD A CRUSH ON THE BOTH OF THEM FOR YEARS! SO HEARING ABOUT THERE OPEN RELATIONSHIP EXCITES ME! IT’S NOT AS BAD AS YA’LL THINK. IF IT WORKS FOR THEM THEN WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE? I STILL LOVE THEM! (BOTH) LOL
I love you as a brother my friend, and I’m not judging you personally, “however”, because I do love you as a brother, being myself one of the biggest ( former,) whoremongers in chicago. Must share the truth. 1 cor 6: 9, Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God. Be not deceived : neither fornicators, nor idolatersd, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor coveteous. nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
