>> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY, WELCOME BACK!
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOU KNOW MY FIRST GUEST FROM "A DIFFERENT
WORLD," "MAGIC MIKE XXL," AND "GIRLS TRIP."
SHE NOW HOSTS "RED TABLE TALK" AND STARS IN THE NEW FILM
"ANGEL HAS FALLEN."
PLEASE WELCOME TO "THE LATE SHOW," JADA PINKETT SMITH!
♪ ♪ ♪
( APPLAUSE )
>> HEY!
>> Stephen: THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
( APPLAUSE )
HERE IN A VERY BUSY TIME FOR YOU.
WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF WHAT ARE CALLING THE "JADA-SANCE."
IT STARTED WITH "GIRLS TRIP," AND THEN "ANGEL HAS FALLEN," AND
THE NUMBER ONE SHOW ON FACEBOOK LIVE.
AND IT'S "RED TABLE TALK."
YOU'RE A VERY SUCCESSFUL TALK SHOW HOST AT THIS POINT.
>> DO YOU BELIEVE THAT?
>> Stephen: OKAY, SO, CAN WE HAVE-- WE DON'T HAVE A RED
TABLE.
CAN WE HAVE A RED TABLE TALK?
>> LISTEN, A RED TABLE IS WHEREVER, WHEREVER.
THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT.
IT'S JUST REAL TALK.
>> Stephen: REAL TALK.
THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS YOU SAY, YOU SAY YOUR GUESTS IT'S
ONE STIPULATION YOU HAVE YOU TELL THEM, "YOU HAVE TO BRING
IT."
>> AS MUCH AS PEOPLE LIKE TO CALL IT A TALK SHOW, IT'S MORE
OF A STORYTELLING SHOW.
SO PEOPLE THAT HAVE SOMETHING TO SHARE, YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S
ADVICE OR LIFE EXPERIENCE -- >> Stephen: OR VICE.
>> EXACTLY.
THAT.
>> Stephen: THAT CAN BE A STORY, TOO.
>> WE'VE HAD THOSE, WE'VE HAD THOSE.
SO IT'S A STORYTELLING SHOW.
I JUST LIKE PEOPLE TO COME AND SHARE AN EXPERIENCE OF SOME
KIND.
>> Stephen: IS IT, LIKE, THERAPY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO COME
ON AT ALL?
>> SOMETIMES IT CAN BE.
YEAH, SOMETIMES IT CAN BE.
AND SOMETIMES IT'S JUST INFORMATIVE.
I'VE JUST-- IN MY OWN LIFE, I JUST KNOW THAT ONE OF THE
REASONS WHY I WANTED TO CREATE THE SHOW IS BECAUSE WHEN PEOPLE
WERE COURAGEOUS ENOUGH TO BE EXTREMELY HONEST WITH ME, THAT
HELPED ME FAR MORE, AND PEOPLE SHARING WITH ME THEIR
EXPERIENCES -- WHICH YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY COURAGEOUS TO DO,
RIGHT?
SHARING THEIR EXPERIENCES INSTEAD OF ADVICE.
AND SO THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO HAVE A SHOW-- AND I MEAN, I'VE
HAD SOME PEOPLE IN MY LIFE WHO WERE COURAGEOUS ENOUGH TO BE
VERY, VERY REAL WITH ME AND PREVENT ME FROM MAKING SOME BIG,
HUGE MISTAKES IN MY LIFE.
AND I WAS LIKE, WHY DON'T WE TALK LIKE THIS MORE OFTEN?
>> Stephen: YOU HAD THIS TALK WITH YOUR HUSBAND, SOMEBODY YOU
ALREADY KNOW VERY, VERY WELL.
YOU GUYS DID A TWO-PART.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: "RED TABLE TALK."
A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER WITH YOUR HUSBAND, WILL.
WHY-- WHY DO THAT IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA?
BECAUSE MY WIFE AND I BRING I IT...
( LAUGHTER ).
>> BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.
>> Stephen: BUT WE DON'T NECESSARILY POINT A CAMERA AT
THIS, BECAUSE EVERYONE WOULD SEE THEN THAT SHE'S ALWAYS RIGHT.
I DON'T ALLOW THE CAMERAS.
( APPLAUSE )
THERE.
>> Stephen: WHAT STORIES COULD YOU TELL EACH BARGAIN YOURSELVES
OR ABOUT EACH OTHER?
>> WELL, REALLY-- WHAT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT IT BTHAT--
ABOUT WILL AND I DOING THAT SHOW TOGETHER, TWO THINGS.
FIRST OF ALL, IT WAS REALLY TO KIND OF GET RID OF THE IDEA THAT
PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC EYE HAVE PERFECT RELATIONSHIPS.
WE WERE KIND OF SICK OF LIVING UP TO THAT.
WE WERE REAL SICK OF IT.
AND THEN, SECOND OF ALL, REALLY HAVING MYSELF AND WILL COME AND
TALK ABOUT OUR RELATIONSHIP.
SOMETIMES YOU SEE JUST WOMEN DO IT ALONE OR YOU JUST A GUY DO
IT.
AND US HAVING-- COMING TOGETHER AND TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR
BOTH OF OUR PARTS.
AND, ALSO, WILL BEING THE SUCCESSFUL GUY THAT HE IS AND
BEING WILLING TO SHARE WHAT HIS PITFALLS WERE IN THE
RELATIONSHIP AND IN HIS FAMILY.
YOU CAN'T IMAGINE HOW MANY OTHER SUCCESSFUL MEN CALLED AND SAID,
"WOW.
MY WIFE HAS BEEN SAYING THE SAME THING FOR YEARS.
BECAUSE YOU SAID TIT OPENED MY EYES.
AND BECAUSE YOU SAID IT, NOW I'M WILLING TO LISTEN."
BECAUSE I THINK A LOT OF TIMES SUCCESSFUL MEN MIGHT FEEL LIKE,
"HEY, LOOK, I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
I HAVE HAD A LOT OF SUCCESS IN A LOT OF AREAS.
I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M DOING."
SO A LOT OF TIMES YOU KNOW YOU CAN SHUT YOUR PARTNER DOWN A
LITTLE BIT YOU KNOW.
SO I THINK-- EXACTLY!
( APPLAUSE )
TALKING ABOUT.
>> YOU WANTED TO HAVE A RED TABLE --
>> Stephen: ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS IS IN THE
CONVERSATION YOU HAD WITH YOUR HUSBAND, WILL, HE WAS TALKING
ABOUT HE HAD THIS IMAGE IN HIS HEAD, HE.
A PICTURE IN HIS HEAD-- I LOVE THIS PART.
TELL THE PEOPLE WHAT HE SAID ABOUT THE PICTURE IN HIS HEAD
AND WHAT YOUR DAUGHTER SAID.
>> THIS PICTURE OF A PERFECT FAMILY, A PERFECT FAMILY THAT
JUST DID WHAT HE SAID, RIGHT?
AND HIS DAUGHTER, YOU KNOW, WILLOW'S BASICALLY, "OH, DADDY
I'M SO SORRY, BUT THAT'S NOT US."
YOU KNOW.
>> Stephen: HE'S GOT A PICTURE IN HIS HEAD AND WE'RE NOT IN IT.
>> "WE DON'T FIT THAT PICTURE, DAD.
SO SORRY."
YOUR HUSBAND HAS AN INSTAGRAM OBSESSION, WHICH I'M SURE YOU'RE
AWARE OF.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: HE POSTED SOMETHING THAT I'M NOT SURE
YOU'RE COOL WITH.
I THINK WE HAVE A VIDEO OF THIS.
DON'T GO TO IT YET.
I WANT TO YOU SEE THIS AND I WANT TO KNOW WHETHER YOU APPROVE
OF THIS OR WHETHER WE NEED TO STAGE AN INTERVENTION HERE.
BECAUSE HE PUT HIS FACE ON YOU IN ONE "RED TABLE TALK."
JIM.
>> THIS WOMAN SAYS SHE'S 53.
( LAUGHTER )
YOU DON'T LOOK 53!
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
>> FOR YEARS, BETTER, AND BETTER AND BETTER AND BETTER.
>> OKAY, GO AHEAD.
I DON'T WANT TO STOP YOU.
GO AHEAD.
( APPLAUSE )
THIS?
>> I'M AWARE!
I WAS VERY AWARE.
I ACTUALLY POSTED IT ON MY INSTAGRAM AS WELL.
>> Stephen: OKAY, GOOD, GOOD, GOOD.
>> HERE'S THE THING, WILL, HE GETS A LOT OF JOY OUT OF
TROLLING HIS FAMILY, ESPECIALLY ME.
OKAY?
AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU, I MEAN, ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PARTS
ABOUT BEING-- BEING IN A PARTNERSHIP WITH WILL IS THAT
HE'S LEARNED TO TEACH ME HOW TO LAUGH AND JUST HAVE A GOOD TIME
WITH LIFE.
>> Stephen: THAT'S COOL.
>> YEAH, SO, YOU KNOW, I'M JUST GLAD THAT HE'S HAVING A GOOD
TIME.
>> Stephen: I HAVE TO SAY I REALLY LIKE-- HE ACTUALLY LOOKED
PRETTY GOOD WITH THE TWO FACES.
YOU GUYS-- YOU GUYS LITERALLY MAKE A LOVELY COUPLE.
>> WELL, THANK YOU FOR THAT.
THANK YOU FOR THAT.
>> Stephen: YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT A GOATEE.
THE NEW MOVIE IS "ANGEL HAS FALLEN."
THIS IS PART OF THE "HAS FALLEN SERIES."
OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN.
LONDON HAS FALLEN.
WHAT IS THE NEXT TO FALL?
>> THE GERARD BUTLER CHARACTER IS BEING FRAMED --
>> Stephen: HE IS ANGEL.
>> YES, TRYING TO ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
>> Stephen: WHO THIS TIME IS-- >> MORGAN FREEMAN.
>> Stephen: EVENTUALLY, ALL PRESIDENTS BECOME MORGAN
FREEMAN.
>> YES!
AND I'M THE F.B.I. AGENT WHO IS CHASING HIM DOWN BECAUSE HE'S ON
THE RUN.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
>> YES.
AND AS I'M INVESTIGATE, I FIGURE OUT THAT THERE'S SOMETHING FISHY
GOING ON.
AND, YOU KNOW, I CAN'T TELL YOU THE REST.
BECAUSE THEN YOU WON'T GO SEE THE MOVIE.
>> Stephen: YOU CAN TELL ME THIS MUCH.
WE HAVE A CLIP.
THIS IS WHEN YOU FIRST RUN HIM DOWN, I THINK.
>> YYES.
>> Stephen: ANOTHER JIM.
>> WHY AM I BEING SECURED?
>> YOU'RE IN ST. MATTHEWS HOSPITAL.
DO YOU REMEMBER HOW YOU GOT HERE?
WHAT'S LAST THING YOU REMEMBER?
MIKE, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT YOU TELL MEET LAST THING YOU
REMEMBER.
>> PRESIDENT.
WHERE IS THE SNRT WHERE IS HE?
IS HE OKAY?
>> HE IS IN A COMA AND YOUR WHOLE TEAM IS DEAD.
EXCEPT YOU.
TELL ME HOW THAT HAPPENED.
>> Stephen: THAT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD.
>> NO GOOD!
( APPLAUSE )
IT'S OUR -- >> Stephen: YOU DON'T WANT TO
WAKE UP.
YOU DON'T WANT TO WAKE UP FROM A COMA AND HEAR THAT.
>> BUT IT'S LAST ACTION MOVIE OF THE SUMMER.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
AND WEST?
>> AND THE BEST I WOULD SAY, FOR SURE.
>> Stephen: I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT A QUOTE YOU SAID YOU JUST
TURNED 47.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: AND YOU ARE-- PROBABLY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
YOUR LIFE, YOU'RE HAPPY.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: FIRST OF ALL, I AM SORRY IT TOOK YOU TO 47 TO BE
HAPPY.
>> I KNOW, RIGHT?
>> Stephen: WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG?
AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?
>> WELL, I THINK THAT-- I REALLY THOUGHT HAPPINESS HAD A LOT TO
DO WITH PLEASURE, RIGHT.
AND I REALIZE THAT HAPPY SENTENCE ABOUT PEACE.
AND SO I'M THE MOST PEACEFUL I'VE EVER BEEN IN MY LIFE.
SO I AM THE HAPPIEST.
( APPLAUSE )
MUCH.
>> THANK YOU.
>> Stephen: "ANGEL HAS FALLEN" IS IN THEATERS NEXT FRIDAY.
JADA PINKETT SMITH, EVERYBODY!
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MEMBER OF "THE SQUAD," CONGRESSWOMAN
AYANNA PRESSLEY.
