Jaden Smith Interview: Will Smith's Son Says ‘It’s An Honor’ To Be Called ‘Crazy’

Jaden Smith’s whole crazy, bizarre act is all a part of his master plan. During a recent interview with GQ, the 17-year-old son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith admitted that it’s “fun” to make people’s heads spin and that it’s actually an “honor” people consider him a bit nuts.

“It’s so much fun. It’s the best thing. People think you’re crazy, I feel like it’s an honor, actually, for people to think I’m crazy,” he told GQ. This is coming from the kid who decided to wear a Batman costume to Kimye’s wedding and to prom.

“Because they thought Galileo was crazy, too, you know what I’m saying? I don’t think I’m as revolutionary as Galileo, but I don’t think I’m not as revolutionary as Galileo.”

During the interview, the teen also made some other head-scratching remarks, including how he and his sister, Willow, are “scientists” and how they created “this initiative called Mystery School,” which is actually just what they call their home schooling.

“Me and Willow are scientists,” he explains, “so everything for us is a scientific test upon humanity. And luckily we're put in a position where we can affect large groups of human beings at one time.”

He also plans on disappearing. “No one will know where I am in 10 years. They’ll see me pop up, but they’ll be like, ‘Where’d you come from?’ No one will know,” he stated.

“It’ll be kind of like Banksy. But in a different way. More of a social impact. Helping people. But through art installations.”

Jaden didn’t stop there. He continued to say, “It’ll be like, ‘This just happened that helped a bunch of people over here. We don’t know who did it, but these symbols and things were left around, so we can only guess that it’s Jaden and the squad.'”

Jaden's goal, he said, is to “teach people how to be comfortable” and to learn as much as he can.

“I rarely go to parties. My whole life is just dedicated on learning and breaking, like, the craziest records of life, and being like one of the craziest human beings to ever exist,” he added. “That's me.”
