I’m not alone in wondering whether Jaden Smith, 20, is pulling a Joaquin Phoenix level prank about his lovelife or if he really is in a relationship with Tyler The Creator, 27. Maybe that’s by design in that he wants to keep people guessing. He keeps talking about it, so I assume he’s telling the truth, but Tyler doesn’t seem to agree. Some of the stuff Jaden said is questionable, like his claim that Tyler has been his boyfriend his whole life. They have a seven year age difference so I hope he means his whole adult life of two years. Jaden isn’t always decipherable and you can’t take everything he says literally. Hence the ongoing confusion. I’m attempting to do a recap here but know that I’ll miss key things.
First Jaden called Tyler his boyfriend during a concert. You can see that video on Instagram. (It has F bombs and is NSFW.) He Then, in an interview with Apple Beats radio, Jaden repeated that.
“I just want to say that Tyler the Creator is the best friend in the world and I love him so f’ing much. I want to tell you guys something. Tyler doesn’t want to say, but Tyler’s my motherf’ing boyfriend and he’s been my motherf’ing boyfriend my whole f’ing life. Tyler is my f’ing boyfriend! It’s true. [Camera pans to Tyler in a surgical mask and he wags his finger, shakes his head and laughs. Jaden then tells people to step back from the stage due to fire regulations.] Tyler the Creator is my f’ing boyfriend. If you take anything away from this f’ing show that’s what you take.” – a href=”https://itunes.apple.com/us/curator/msfts-frequency/993270153?app=music&ign-itsct=be1_cur_jad&ign-itscg=10705″>Apple beats radio via Instagram
“Yup @tylerthecreator I Told Everyone You Can’t Deny It Now” – Jaden on Twitter
“Hahaha you a crazy n**** man.” – Tyler on Twitter via Evening Standard
“I recently said that Tyler, the Creator is my boyfriend, and that’s true. So, just so you know.” – via CNN
If so that’s cool and I’m happy for them. As a professional gossip I welcome these two as a new power couple. However Tyler doesn’t want to admit this publicly! He shook his head at Jaden during the concert and his tweet was more of the same, but Jaden keeps repeating himself. Does this mean that they were together and that Tyler is going to distance himself from Jaden? Is Jaden saying that his best friend is as close as a boyfriend would be? Tyler should just claim that if he doesn’t want to come out. This is some Shakespearean drama. Or maybe not, maybe Jaden is just trolling. Or maybe Tyler knows that Jaden has no public credibility and even though he doesn’t want to come fully he’s ok with Jaden saying it. He’s admitted to having a boyfriend.
Also Jaden put out a new album a few days ago.
I’m embedding this tweet from Gay Times because they did a great job finding matching photos of these two.

Also I tried to find tweets about Tyler and Jaden but there’s currently more buzz on Twitter about Jaden’s new album than this relationship.
