Jada Pinkett Smith on Alopecia, Hair Loss and the Slap Heard Around the World

Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith have been in the spotlight a lot lately, and it’s not always been in a good way. The latest news involves Will storming the Oscars stage at the 2022 94th Oscar Awards and slapping Chris Rock making a joke about his wife. That moment is the one everyone is talking about from Sunday’s Oscars, and not the winners.

Rock made a comment about Jada’s bald head referencing the movie G.I. Jane, where actress Demi Moore shaved her head for the role.

It all went down when Rock came out to present an award for Best Documentary. On stage, the comedian laughed and said, “Jada, I love ya. G.I. Jane 2 — can’t wait to see it, all right?” At that point Will walked on stage and proceeded to slap Chris and then calmly walk back to his seat.

He then shouted back to Chris saying, “Keep my wife’s name out your mutha—— mouth!”

No matter how you feel about the joke, many did not know that Jada has had issues with losing her hair for years.

Back in 2018, Jada Pinkett Smith had been wearing headwraps and not showing her hair for months at a time. It turns out the beautiful Girl’s Trip star has been struggling with the hair loss condition, possibly linked to alopecia. She took to social media to explain it.

“I’ve been getting a lot of questions about why I’ve been wearing this turban,” said the beautiful 50-year-old actress.

“Well, I’ve been having issues with hair loss. And it was terrifying when it first started.”
