-Jada Pinkett Smith has been making some waves with some of the revelations in her new memoir, "Worthy." Here to comment is Jada Pinkett Smith. [ Cheers and applause ] -Hello, yeah. It's so good to see you, Michael. Thank you for coming to the red table. [ Chuckling ] All right. Sorry if I seem a little tired. I've been on "The Today Show" 14 times in 3 days. -Yeah, you're getting a lot of buzz. In your new book, you revealed that you and Will Smith have been separated since 2016? -Mm-hmm. That'

s the truth. That is the truth. But the day we got married, I knew there was going to be trouble. At our wedding, someone stood up and objected. [ Chuckles ] -Who was it? -It was me. Yeah. Yeah, it was me. You know, but it's okay. 23 years later, Will and I are still a unit. And it's because we have learned that the secret to a successful marriage is never go to bed happy. [ Laughter ] -Yeah. You guys described your marriage as "brutiful," as in brutal and beautiful. -Yeah. Mm-hmm. And other peo

ple describe it as "brunhealthy." [ Chuckles ] Yeah, yeah. But we're -- But we're doing great, Michael. We really are. And for the first time in a very, very long time, I am in such a solid, fortified place. You see, nothing makes me feel stronger than publicly cucking my millionaire husband. [ Laughter ] -I don't understand -- Why not just get a divorce? -Oh, no, no, no. Divorce is not an option. No, no, no, no. I have principles, Michael. If we got divorced, he could mess around and end up hap

py. [ Chuckles ] And -- And I can't have that. I just can't have that. -Well, he doesn't seem very happy. He called your marriage "a sloppy public experiment in unconditional love." -Mm-hmm, yeah, mm-hmm. That was actually in our vows. [ Chuckles ] Yeah. So, anyway, back to Tupac. -Oh, I -- I never said "Tupac." -Well, I can't stop saying "Tupac," all right? You know, we were so close, and a lot of people don't know this, but before he died, he was in the process of legally changing his name to

"Tupinkett." Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. He -- He was my soul mate. Yeah. -What about Will? You said in your book that him slapping Chris Rock actually brought you closer together as a couple. -Mm-hmm. Yeah. That's right. That's right. You know, it was the first time in years that I felt like his wife. -Oh. -And now I am so clear on what to do if we ever start drifting apart again. -And what's that? -The next time we hit a rough patch, I'm going to ask Will to shoot Kevin Hart. -Jada -- Jada Pinkett Smi

th, everybody. -Yeah. Just please call me "Mrs. Shakur." Call me "Mrs. Shakur." -Oh, man.
