Jaden Smith doesn't care if people think he's "crazy." In fact, he tells GQ magazine that he embraces the criticism.
"People
think you're crazy -- I feel like it's an honor, actually, for people
to think I'm crazy. Because they thought Galileo was crazy, too, you
know what I'm saying?" the 17-year-old star explained to GQ staff
writer, Zach Baron. "I don't think I'm as revolutionary as Galileo, but
I don't think I'm not as revolutionary as Galileo."
His comparison of himself to the renowned astronomer is just one of several bizarre quotes that Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith's son told the men's magazine.
Here are five of the more notable point of views that the eccentric star shared:
1. Jaden and his 14-year-old sister, Willow Smith, have a Mystery School.
"It dates back to like ancient Egypt, ancient Greece -- like Plato,
Pythagoras, all these students had mystery schools. And what they
learned in there was sacred," he explained. "They would learn the math
and sciences of that generation, and then they would build the cities
and give that energy and that knowledge to the other people. And a lot
of stuff they would keep really, really to themselves. Like, you
couldn't say the word dodecahedron, which is just a shape, outside of
one of the mystery schools or they would, like, kill you or whatever.
Because it was such a sacred shape."
2. The siblings are also "scientists," according to Jaden.
"So everything for us is a scientific test upon humanity," he said.
"And luckily we're put in a position where we can affect large groups of
human beings at one time."
3. Jaden likes to build stuff. "Like, the clothes I'm wearing right now, done it on my own," he boasted to GQ. "I built my own bed, I built my own closet, um, I built two closets, I built four beds, I built, um, one pyramid..."
The After Earth
star added, "It's at my parents' house. Half of a pyramid. The tip is
missing, but the whole structural thing is built, and it sits at 12.5
feet tall."
4. Jaden plans to go off the grid.
"No one will know where I am in 10 years. They'll see me pop up, but
they'll be like, 'Where'd you come from?' No one will know where I'm
at," he said. "I've been planning that since I was like 13. ...It'll be
kind of like Banksy. But in a different way. More of a social impact.
Helping people. But through art installations."
5. He's not a socialite. "I rarely go to parties," Jaden, who was recently seen out during New York Fashion Week,
said. "My whole life is just dedicated on learning and breaking, like,
the craziest records of life, and being like one of the craziest human
beings to ever exist. That's me."
Jaden has always been opinionated. Even back in 2013 when he was just 14 years old, he critiqued his favorite father's red-carpet style for ET.
