Jada’s ‘entanglement’: August Alsina weighs in on Will’s Oscars slap

August Alsina began trending on Twitter in the aftermath of Will Smith slapping Chris Rock on stage during the Oscars ceremony on 27 March. Will slapped Chris because he made a G.I. Jane 2 joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s bald head.

Jada previously opened up about being bald because of alopecia. So, how does August fit in? Well Jada and August had an “entanglement” while she was married to Will. So, Tweeps thought Will should “keep the same energy” for August as he did for Chris.

August had now shared a lengthy Instagram post about choosing peace.

“Choose peace; trusting that life’s intricate puzzle pieces are all forming together for the greater good and mastering of the seasonally sometime chaotic nature of your life’s art piece that’s being formed and painted by birthing life to your internal masterpiece,” he wrote.
