Will Smith Feared He Was Going To Be Killed By Treach for a one-time date with pepa
A lot of news has recently been generated by Will Smith and his unconventional marriage to Jada Pinkett-Smith. Sandra Denton of Salt-N-Pepa, though, may have had a different outcome.
Denton, who spent her early career touring with Will and DJ Jazzy Jeff, disclosed in a recent podcast segment that she only ever went on one date with Smith. Though he was interesting, she declined his advances, feeling that he was too “nice.”
“Okay, you were very nice,” she began recalling the date began with a drive in L.A. “This was the date you won and beat us out. You was so happy. You was like let’s go celebrate,” she said, referencing Smith’s first-ever Grammy win in 1989 where he and Jeff beat out Salt-N-Pepa and LL COOL J, who were also nominated in the rap category.
“Then we were out and you saw a homeless person. You gave the homeless person $100. And it was so nice. Then, we went to the Hollywood sign,” she continued, as Smith recalled Pepa was on a break from her ex, Treach.
“I think you and Treach had been broke up for a minute. So, in my mind when I was like trying to spit my game but I ain’t really have nothing. Cuz my concern was I was gonna get killed,” said Smith. It was a sentiment Salt agreed “was a legit concern,” a response that made everyone assembled crack up laughing.
Treach responded to the situation by making a joke about the Chris Rock-Will Smith incident on social media. He shared a post with a headline and added a caption, saying,“”KEEP MY NAME CONCERNING MY EX-BITCH OUT YO FUCKING MOUTH”!! [laughing emoji],”
In a 2009 interview with Global Grind, Denton talked about feeling regretful, and her recent remarks are consistent with that discussion.
“I thought Will was really cute, and we would hang out a lot on the road. He liked to take care of me and never let me spend a dime. He was that kind of guy, real generous,” said Pepa, explaining the tour together while competing in Hip Hop contests.
“I sometimes kick myself when I think about what could have been. He was so nice to me, but I really wasn’t feeling him. I guess I couldn’t appreciate a nice guy like Will Smith. He wasn’t thug enough. I was attracted to thugs and hoodlums. Will was too nice to me,” she added.
The actor’s marital turmoil coincided with Smith and Denton’s lost chance. In her memoir “Worthy,” Pinkett-Smith recently shared some startling information about their relationship, such as the fact that they have been secretly split for seven years. However, rumors have it that the couple is making an effort to patch things up and start over.
