Will Smith's son, Jaden, on drugs? Watch bizarre behavior in Paris

Jaden Smith, son of actor Will Smith, is no stranger to the celebrity life. However, some of his choices have sparked concerns amongst those in his close circle. Jaden Smith was photographed exiting two Paris party spots in a beanie, with a bong.(Reuters) Jaden was reportedly busted recently, while on a drug binge with friends in Paris. Now, a new video has emerged showing Jaden engaging in what can only be called bizarre behavior on Parisian streets. What is Jaden Smith doing in the video? The video shows Jaden, 27, in a red outfit – hoodie and pants, on the streets of Paris. He appears to make gestures with his hands, before clutching his head with both hands. Jaden is then seen crossing the street. While it is entirely possible he was listening to music, and really feeling it – given that his hoodie would have kept earphones, or EarPods out of view, the actions are still quite strange to the neutral passerby.

Probably listening to some really kick ass music.' Others attributed the behavior to drug consumption, with one user saying "Thats the side effect of meth for sure". Another quipped it was a 'reminder' not to do drugs. Jaden Smith's drug habits have close ones worried Jaden's recent reported drug bust has scared those close to him that he could be headed off the rails. The rapper was photographed exiting two Paris party spots in a beanie, with a bong. 'It's not a good look, especially as cannabis is illegal in France, where the legal possession amount and use is a criminal offense. Clearly, Jaden is heading in a dangerous direction. He was out at 3 a.m. in a foreign city partying his head off and then spending a lot less time at home. And with his parents living separately and their marital situation up in the air, he's probably avoiding them altogether,' a source told RadarOnline. 'Jaden's a sweet kid and he means well, but his parents are not helping. He's misunderstood. He's been spoiled his whole life, so he's used to doing whatever he wants and making people laugh – often at the cost of looking ridiculous. Jaden's been completely let off the leash. He's making a lot of people very upset. Once so cool, he's making it look foolish,' the source added.

Jaden Smith's drug habit sparks fear among friends, Will Smith's son busted in Paris: ‘Completely let off the leash'

The incident has led many to fear that the young star might be heading down a troubling path.

Now, his closest ones are scared that he is way off the rails. The rapper got into the spotlight for his drug use recently after he was photographed exiting two party spots in Paris in a beanie and with a bong. "It's not a good look, especially as cannabis is illegal in France, where the legal possession amount and use is a criminal offense. Clearly, Jaden is heading in a dangerous direction. He was out at 3 a.m. in a foreign city partying his head off and then spending a lot less time at home. And with his parents living separately and their marital situation up in the air, he's probably avoiding them altogether,' a source told the outlet. At the moment, Will Smith is busy working on his music comeback, while mom Jada Pinkett Smith, 53, is focusing on new projects following the cancellation of her Red Table Talk by Facebook Watch in 2022. 'Jaden's a sweet kid and he means well, but his parents are not helping. He's misunderstood. He's been spoiled his whole life, so he's used to doing whatever he wants and making people laugh – often at the cost of looking ridiculous. Jaden's been completely let off the leash. He's making a lot of people very upset. Once so cool, he's making it look foolish,' added the source. In 2023, Jaden said his mom, Jada Pinkett Smith, introduced psychedelic drugs to him and the rest of the family. During the Psychedelic Science conference, the Karate Kid star said, 'I think it was my mom, actually, that was really the first one to make that step for the family.' More about Will Smith's family Will Smith became a father for the first time in 1992 when he welcomed his son Trey Smith with his then-wife Sheree Zampino. The couple eventually separated, and Will went on to marry Jada Pinkett Smith in 1997. Will and Jada had two children together, Jaden and Willow, in 1998 and 2000, respectively. Will has previously spoken about his parenting style, which is rooted in respect and treating his children as individuals. The family has allowed their children the freedom to express themselves and make their own choices, as seen in Jaden's decision to ask for emancipation at the age of 15.

Erasmus calls time on mass Springbok experiments

MBOMBELA - South Africa head coach Rassie Erasmus says mass Springbok experiments will end when he names a 36-man squad on Tuesday for two Rugby Championship Tests against Australia during August. "The bulk of that squad will be experienced players who are suited to the way we want to play while there will be room for one or two guys we want to experiment with," he told reporters. "We wanted to experiment against the Barbarians, Italy and Georgia in build-up matches, and the scorelines we achieved were pretty satisfying. "We used 46 players and gave first caps to a number of players. There are others we want to give opportunities to like Jaden and Jordan (Hendrikse), Quan (Horn) and Renzo (du Plessis). "But the Rugby Championship is definitely a step up, starting with the Wallabies in Johannesburg and Cape Town on successive Saturdays next month." South Africa are defending the Rugby Championship title and after Australia, play in New Zealand twice, then Argentina home and away, with the latter match switched from South America to London. In November, the record four-time Rugby World Cup winners face a daunting tour of Europe, including France in Paris and Ireland in Dublin. Erasmus, a key figure in different coaching roles in the 2019 and 2023 World Cup triumphs, also reflected on the build-up matches for the southern hemisphere championship. "We are fairly happy if you look over the four games," he said, recalling victories over the Barbarians (54-7), Italy (42-24 and 45-0) and, this weekend, Georgia (55-10). Each Test was preceded by many personnel changes to the matchday 23 -- 10 and 15 for the internationals against Italy and 16 for Georgia. "Georgia were physical and disruptive, but that is not an excuse for making so many errors. If we chop and change while building squad depth, you will have lost rhythm. "We found rhythm in the final 20 minutes and, while the scoreline was impressive, we can always do better." The coach said fly-half Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who missed four of five conversion attempts, injured his hip warming up for the match. "Sacha wanted to play, but that is no excuse for the way he kicked at the poles. However, he is certainly not one of the guys who made the most errors."

‘Love Island: USA' Bombshell Admits She Was a ‘Last-Minute' Addition: ‘They Flew Me Home'

'Love Island: USA' Bombshell Admits She Was a 'Last-Minute' Addition: 'They Flew Me Home' originally appeared on Parade. Believe it or not, Casa Amor cutie Jaden Duggar almost missed out on Love Island: USA season 7 entirely. Thanks to a last-minute switch, though, she finally got the chance to grace our television screens during the infamous Casa Amor twist, sharing the entire story with social media sensations Brianna "Bri" LaPaglia (AKA Brianna Chicken Fry) and Josh Richards on a recent episode of the BFFs Podcast. As mentioned, Jaden entered the villa during Casa Amor — alongside Clarke Carraway, Gracyn Blackmore, Coco Watson and Vanna Einerson — instantaneously forming quite the connection with OG islander Austin Shepard, despite advances from Nic Vansteenberghe as well. Remaining coupled up with Austin from the day she arrived (day 17) to the end of her Love Island: USA journey, Jaden was ultimately dumped from the villa on day 24, becoming a fan favorite despite having a rather short-lived stint on the show. Now that she is back in the United States, the 25-year-old corporate investigator is spilling all of the tea via various podcasts, beginning with a question asked by Bri on a recent episode of BFFs: " How long were you in Fiji before you entered for Casa? Were you there from the beginning of the show, like waiting in a hotel?" Surprisingly, Jaden was actually in consideration to be an OG islander... She gushed, "I actually went in the very beginning, and then they flew me home and said 'We might fly you back.' I wasn't sure that was actually going to happen or not, but then they did end up flying me back for Casa obviously, so I didn't have to wait in the hotel too long." To follow, Jaden admitted that she initially felt confident she would be one of the day one arrivals on Love Island: USA season 7, before adding that the show "very last minute" and wishy-washy from a production standpoint. "I feel like they changed their mind like every day leading up to the first day of filming too," she continued — how wild is that? While the process was rather unconventional, we could not be more pleased that Jaden graced our television screens this season, even though her journey was rather brief. Given how much fans adore her, could Jaden be a day one arrival on Love Island: USA season 8, though? While there is no way to know for sure — and there is tons of time to find out — it is safe to say that we will be connecting with the California cutie on Instagram (@jadenashleyd) for further updates regarding her life beyond the villa. Although she is no longer a part of the show, be sure to catch brand new episodes of Love Island: USA season 7 every day — except Wednesdays — via Peacock as well to see how the beloved competition series comes to a close. 'Love Island: USA' Bombshell Admits She Was a 'Last-Minute' Addition: 'They Flew Me Home' first appeared on Parade on Jul 11, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 11, 2025, where it first appeared.
