Jaden Smith embraces his "weirdness" after years of trying to fit in

All The Weird Shit You’ve Ever Seen Me Do Was Me Thinking I Was Totally Normal, So Now Sometimes I Try To Act Weird On Purpose So Yall Think It’s On Purpose, But At The End Of The Day I’ve Been Trying To Fit In This Whole Time And I Guess It’s Not Exactly Going To Plan.

In a candid post on X (formerly Twitter) on October 19, Jaden explained that his past quirky behavior wasn’t an act, but a genuine attempt to appear "normal." "All the weird s*** you’ve ever seen me do was me thinking I was totally normal," he admitted, noting that now he sometimes acts "weird on purpose" because he's grown more comfortable with himself. Reflecting on his personal growth, Jaden shared that he no longer feels the need to conform to societal expectations and is instead embracing his individuality. This revelation comes after a recent interview where he discussed his frustration with people trying to follow the "normal" path, especially in art, and how he's now focused on being his true self.
