Ana Navarro told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that actress Jada Pinkett Smith is “emasculating and embarrassing” her actor husband Will Smith.
Co-host Whoopi Goldberg said, “Apparently, Jada Pinkett Smith and Britney Spears are just two of the biggest celebrities releasing explosive memoirs, and this comes at a time when nonfiction and tell-all sales seem to be down, and reportedly publishers are insisting that celebrity memoirs be particularly juicy and revealing in the age of social media. Do you feel like people already know about celebrities?”
Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “I felt the same way about the Jada story as you know, and a friend of mine suggested that I read it, that it actually gave a lot of insight. I started reading it, and I have a completely different opinion about her now.”
She continued, “She basically says, you know, do you think that I have that much power over the Will Smith? If that were the case, my life would have been very different.”
Hostin added, “She tells her truth and that’s what’s great about some of these memoirs.”
Navarro said, “I’m done with the Jada thing. I’m done defending Will because Will is out there supporting her. I think Will is being held emotionally prisoner.”
She added, “I don’t want to read the book. I don’t want to give them another dime for her emasculating and embarrassing him to everybody in the world.”
