Singer August Alsina has claimed he had a years-long love affair with actress Jada Pinkett Smith and said that her husband Will Smith gave his blessing.

A spokesperson for Jada denied the claims to Page Six, calling them 'absolutely not true'.
 August, 27, told The Breakfast Club's Angela Yee that he was in love with Jada, 48, and said: 'I sat down with Will [Smith] and had a conversation due to the transformation from their marriage to life partnership… he gave me his blessing.'
According to Page Six, it was Jada's son Jaden, 21, who introduced her to August in 2015.
The singer claimed he is not speaking out to cause trouble. He said: 'Contrary to what people may believe, I am not a troublemaker. I don’t like drama. Drama actually makes me nauseous.
