My Mother’s Washboard Stomach Puts Me To Shame- Jada Pinkett

Jada Pinkett Smith was in Atlanta recently to promote her new movie, Girls Trip, co-starring Regina Hall and Queen Latifah. She is speaking out after enduring insults from bloggers who say she looks older than her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Jones, 63.

“Yeah, she rocks one better than me. When your own mother can put you to shame, I’m like, I don’t (know) if I gotta get back in the gym. I don’t know what I gotta do. I just told her, I said, ‘All that right there, just make sure you passing all those good genes down here’.
