Former NFL player Shannon Shape’s podcast, “Club Shay Shay” was released on October 11. It went viral as soon as the show aired on YouTube.

The incident explains Jada’s kindness towards her Co-star, proving that she has had Davidson’s back in his tough times. The clip of the podcast was shared on the podcast’s Twitter handle.

It started when Sharpe asked the actor about something he had read. He said, “I read when she (Jada Pinkett-Smith) cut filming short so you could actually talk to your birth mom.” Davidson replied, “Oh yeah… Jada is like one of my best friends. Yeah, we were tight. And she saw… something was wrong with me one day and I don’t know how… So we about to do a scene and I’m laughing and joking, and she says what’s wrong with you? I said what you talking about man… She said what’s happening with you? I said I just met my real mother for the first time. She said that’s it. You guys, that’s a wrap for the day! Go deal with that man. You can’t be exposed to that right now and be normal under no circumstances.”

Tommy Davisdon’s unfortunate “run-in,’ with Will Smith, happened when Davidson was shooting his upcoming film, ‘Woo’ with Jada.

The incident had taken place because of something Davidson had done. While he was shooting the end scenes with Jada, Davidson kissed the actress on the set. The kiss, however, was not scripted. Davidson did it because he was not happy with the ending of the rom-com. Although he had informed the producer about it, Jada was oblivious to the kissing part. Thus, Smith tried to go “gangsta” on Davidson.
