Still, people can’t help but joke or express their confusion.

Jaden Smith and Justin Bieber’s friendship goes back decades. In 2010, they collaborated on Biebs’ single “Never Say Never” for the movie “The Karate Kid,” and most recently collaborated on 2020’s “Falling For You.” In 2018, Smith declared that he was “sexual” during an appearance at Tyler the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw carnival. He added: “I just want to say Tyler, The Creator is the best friend in the world. I love him so much and I want to tell you guys something, I want to tell you guys, Tyler doesn’t want to say it, but Tyler is my mom’s boyfriend. He was my mom’s boyfriend my whole life.
Taylor was seen laughing it off backstage and eventually giving Smith the middle finger. But Smith had other things to think about. He will hit the road with Kid Cudi on June 28 for the Insano World Tour alongside Pusha T and EarthGang.
