Jada Pinkett threatens to sue man who accused Will Smith of gay sex
Jada Pinkett has threatened to sue a man who accused Will Smith, her estranged husband, of having sexual intercourse with Duane Martin, the actor.
In a now-viral clip, the man identified as Brother Bilaal, who claimed to be friends with Will for 40 years, alleged that he caught the actor having anal sex with Duane.
Speaking on the recent episode of Unwine with Tasha K podcast, Bilaal claimed he was searching for Will at different locations when he bumped into the actor with Duane in a dressing room “having anal sex”.
“During a lot of years of our relationship, Will was not my friend. I was his friend,” he said.
“I can tell you what goes on on the inside. Everybody else is just speculation.
“Then I saw sexual acts that I have walked in on. I walked in on Will and Martin.
“I am running all over the studio he is not there. Go to the cafeteria I am like but I see his car there. I am holding Duane down I have the key to his (Will) dressing room. I am like this is unlike him.
“So, I opened the door to Duane dressing room and that is when I see Duane having anal sex with Will.
“There was a couch and Will was bent over the couch and Duane was standing up killing him, murdering him. It was murder in there.”
Reacting to the allegation on the recent episode of the Breakfast Club podcast, Jada said she and Will will take legal action against Bilaal.
She described the claims as “malicious, ridiculous, and nonsense”.
“Let me just say this. It is ridiculous and it is nonsense. We are going to take legal action. It is one thing to have your opinion about somebody versus just making up malicious stories. That is actionable. We are going to roll with that,” she said.
Asked about Will’s reaction after hearing the remarks, Jada said: “Here is one good thing about Will, Will is always going to find this funny”.
According to TMZ, a representative of Will also denied the allegations, saying “this story is completely fabricated and the claim is unequivocally false”.

Speed Darlington gets bail after one month in detention
Speed Darlington, the Nigerian rapper, has been granted bail after nearly a month in police custody.
The rapper was arrested on November 27 while performing at a show in Owerri, Imo state.
Deji Adeyanju, a human rights lawyer, had alleged that Burna Boy, the Afrofusion star, was responsible for the rapper’s arrest.
Darlington had taunted Burna Boy over his affiliation with the embattled US rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ who is facing multiple charges for sexual exploitation and human trafficking.
He asked Burna Boy to explain how he won the Grammy award for his album ‘Twice As Tall’ — a project executive produced by Diddy. He claimed there was a sexual relationship between the duo.
Stan Alieke, the legal representative of Darlington, earlier revealed that weeks after the rapper’s arrest, the police had denied him access to bail.
The lawyer also called on the law enforcement agency not to “trample on my client’s constitutional rights”.
But in an Instagram post on Monday, Alieke disclosed that his client had been granted bail.
“Apki has been granted bail by the court,” he wrote without including much information.
