During this week’s episode of The Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett Smith and daughter Willow Smith discussed her once “excessive” use of smoking weed — mom Jada says she’s glad Willow stopped.
“Willow, I’m really proud of you as well, because you have decided to curb your excessive weed smoking,” Pinkett Smith told Willow. “You always were telling me, you’d be like, ‘Gotta stop that smoking,'”
Willow responded. “Only because as your mother, I could see the effects of it that you couldn’t,” Jada said.
Jada’s mom, Adrienne Banfield-Jones, then chimed in, “And for me, it was like with the history that we have in our family it was driving me crazy.”
Willow confessed that once she stopped smoking, her friends disappeared. She then took up yoga.
“When I stopped smoking, it was a really big, like, eye-opener because I was like, there are so many people that I called friends in my life who kind of like…,” Adrienne chimed in again, saying, “drifted away.”
“I know it sounds so cheesy but around the time I stopped smoking I started doing a lot of yoga. And I just excelled. ‘Cause I was putting all of my energy into that. Like I wasn’t doing anything else and I was like wow, what if I was doing this with everything?”
