“All Eyez On Me” is the title of Tupac’s biopic, but his good friend Jada Pinkett-Smith noted scenes in the documentary which she said did not actually happen. Will Smith’s wife turned to Twitter to air her feelings regarding the documentary.
She tweeted that her friendship with Tupac was too precious to her but she cannot accept his biopic as truth, reports E! News. According to her, the scene where the deceased rapper read a poem for her did not happen at all. She added that she did not know about the said poem until it was printed in his book.

The “Magic Mike XXL” star also said that Tupac did not say goodbye to her when he left for LA because he was in a hurry. She also tweeted that she has never been to Tupac’s shows and also denied that they have ever argued backstage. In totality the movie is hurtful says Jaden Smith’s mother.
Although she did not like the biopic, she praised Kat Graham and Demetrius Shipp Jr. for their exemplary performances in the film. The mother of two remembers Shakur’s birthday that will mark his 46th year had he continued to live. She also wrote on Twitter a very touching message saying that she will cradle her friend for eternity in her heart and that she loves him.
