Will Smith's son, Jaden, on drugs? Watch bizarre behavior in Paris
Jaden was reportedly busted recently, while on a drug binge with friends in Paris.
Now, a new video has emerged showing Jaden engaging in what can only be called bizarre behavior on Parisian streets.
What is Jaden Smith doing in the video?
The video shows Jaden, 27, in a red outfit – hoodie and pants, on the streets of Paris.
He appears to make gestures with his hands, before clutching his head with both hands. Jaden is then seen crossing the street. While it is entirely possible he was listening to music, and really feeling it – given that his hoodie would have kept earphones, or EarPods out of view, the actions are still quite strange to the neutral passerby.

One person on X said as much, 'Unfortunately, that's his dancing people. Probably listening to some really kick ass music.'
Others attributed the behavior to drug consumption, with one user saying "Thats the side effect of meth for sure". Another quipped it was a 'reminder' not to do drugs.
Jaden Smith's drug habits have close ones worried
Jaden's recent reported drug bust has scared those close to him that he could be headed off the rails. The rapper was photographed exiting two Paris party spots in a beanie, with a bong.
'It's not a good look, especially as cannabis is illegal in France, where the legal possession amount and use is a criminal offense. Clearly, Jaden is heading in a dangerous direction. He was out at 3 a.m. in a foreign city partying his head off and then spending a lot less time at home. And with his parents living separately and their marital situation up in the air, he's probably avoiding them altogether,' a source told RadarOnline.
'Jaden's a sweet kid and he means well, but his parents are not helping. He's misunderstood. He's been spoiled his whole life, so he's used to doing whatever he wants and making people laugh – often at the cost of looking ridiculous. Jaden's been completely let off the leash. He's making a lot of people very upset. Once so cool, he's making it look foolish,' the source added.

Tarun Tahiliani's ‘Quintessence': A Salon-Style Ode To Craft, Clarity, And The Evolved Bride
Tarun Tahiliani's Quintessence is a poetic ode to couture that celebrates craft, clarity, and the evolving Indian bride. In the hushed elegance of The Oberoi's ballroom, imbued with the scent of fresh mogra and the soft refrains of live jazz, classical, and Indian instrumentals, Tarun Tahiliani unveiled 'Quintessence', his latest couture collection at India Couture Week 2025. Far from a typical runway spectacle, the designer chose an intimate salon-style presentation, where models meandered gracefully between seated guests, allowing the garments to be appreciated up close. It was a conscious nod to the original Parisian couture salons reimagined in the heart of Delhi, as Tahiliani marked 30 years in fashion, celebrating craftsmanship not with grandeur, but with intimacy, precision, and poetic restraint. Quintessence is exactly what the name suggests the most distilled essence of the designer's aesthetic vocabulary. Across 95 couture looks, the collection told a quiet, deeply layered story of India's heritage, interpreted through the lens of movement, modernity, and memory. The craftsmanship spoke in fluent whispers: fine chikankari, soft resham, delicate kasheedakari, shaded threadwork, intricate jaali, and whisper-light zardozi embroidery adorned panels of tulle, satin organza, lace, and bandhini. The silhouettes ranging from breezy panelled kalidars and concept saris to structured corsets, layered jackets, and fluid lehengas were designed with the contemporary bride in mind: one who values both comfort and couture. Sculpted yet effortless, each ensemble allowed for breath, movement, and expression. The palette unfolded like a sunrise beginning in notes of ivory, beige, and soft gold, then blooming into misty rose, almond, blush, and romantic pinks, finally culminating in deeper reds. Every hue felt deliberate, never overpowering. At the heart of the showcase was a profound sense of lightness not just in the physical weight of the garments, but in their spirit. There were no exaggerated flounces or heavy embellishments. Instead, pearls, crystals, resham threads, and abstract floral motifs were applied with intention. Further enriching the experience was a stunning collaboration with de Gournay, renowned for their hand-painted wallcoverings. For the show, they created a bespoke series of panels titled 'Early Views of India', painted on Ivory Indian Tea Paper, which transformed the ballroom into a living canvas of India's visual past. One of these paintings was also translated into a one-of-a-kind couture jacket, where decorative art and fashion converged in a single, breathtaking moment. More than just a collection, Quintessence is a mirror of Tarun himself 'deeply Indian, constantly evolving, thinking in English, dreaming in chikankari." It represents a shift, not a severance. A reimagining of bridalwear for a generation that seeks presence over pretense, lightness over legacy. The collaboration with The Oberoi, New Delhi, celebrating its 60th year, added yet another layer of legacy to the presentation. With its architectural poise and timeless energy, the hotel served not just as venue, but as muse mirroring the collection's calm, refined, and elemental beauty. In a couture landscape often dominated by spectacle, Quintessence chose a different kind of power: quiet, intelligent, exquisitely detailed. It's a collection that doesn't shout for attention, it simply holds it. view comments Location : New Delhi, India, India First Published: July 27, 2025, 11:14 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Tarun Tahiliani's collection at India Couture Week 2025
Within the elegant confines of the Oberoi's ballroom, under the soft glow of lights and the scent of fresh mogra, 95 looks — rich with chikankari, resham, kasheedakari, shaded threadwork, jaali, and zardozi — narrate the story of artisanal techniques. Tarun Tahiliani's collection Quintessence, showcased as part of India Couture Week, is a quiet celebration of craft — textile, form, and finish. Strains of the piano, saxophone, cello, and drums fill the hall as models meander across the different seating areas. The music segues into jazz, classical, Indian and soft rock even, in a way that is symbolic of the diverse moods of today's bride. The silhouettes — in tulle, lace, satin organza, and bandhini — include lehengas, panelled kalidars, concept saris, layered jackets, and structured corsets, created keeping in mind movement, grace, and lightness. The colour palette starts off mellow with subtle shades of ivory, beige and soft gold and graduates to misty rose, blush, almond, pinks and then to reds. For this presentation, the designer chose to ditch the usual runway and do a salon-style viewing. The salon is a kind of runway — just more intimate, says Tarun. 'Couture, by nature, is incredibly detailed. Even I'm often stunned when I see how many thousands of hours go into a single garment,' he says. To honour this craftsmanship, he wanted people to experience the pieces up close, like the original Parisian couture salons where models walked between seated guests. 'Back then, it was about silhouettes. For us, it's about silhouette and the mastery of embroidery — something I believe no one in the world does quite like India. With the subdued colour palette in Quintessence, you need to get close to truly see the finesse,' explains Tarun. The garments teem with delicate florals, abstract foliage, and reimagined Mughal motifs. This collection, in some way, is a reflection of who Tarun is — 'deeply Indian, constantly evolving, thinking in English, dreaming in chikankari'. Quintessence is light and devoid of excesses. It takes a step back from heavy bridal wear. It's an evolution, not a rejection of tradition, Tarun clarifies. Brides today are choosing individuality over convention. They want to own who they are on their big day, not be weighed down by what they're 'supposed' to wear. The market is shifting too and this stems from women becoming more emancipated, educated, and expressive. They want wedding clothes that reflect them, not just societal expectation, he says. The wedding market now has a lot of Gen Z brides. This generation is known to be starkly different from the previous generations of millennials, Gen X, etc. Does the designer take a different approach while designing for them? 'I don't design for generations — I design for now. And 'now' is fluid,' says Tarun, adding, 'Gen Z brides are confident, self-aware, and experimental, but that doesn't mean we discard tradition. Rather, we reinterpret it — like a farshi skirt reimagined as a pleated wrap or chikankari on modern corsetry.' He approaches it by understanding the intention of the bride/groom. Whether someone is seeking minimalism or maximalism, Tarun offers tools to express that identity through cut, fabric, and detail. 'The only rule is authenticity,' he adds. For this show, Tarun once again chose to disperse with the concept of a celebrity showstopper. This goes with his firm belief that clothes must be the showstopper. He says, 'I've said it time and again — craft, karigar, construction: that's the real star. Let the work speak.'
