Jaden Smith Declares Tyler, the Creator His Boyfriend

Jaden Smith has confirmed the tea while Tyler, the Creator has yet to comment.

Karate Kid-turned-rapper Jaden Smith has confirmed to the world that he is dating Flower Boy rapper Tyler, the Creator.

Smith took to the stage during his set at the Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival and declared that Tyler, The Creator is his "best friend in the world." But he continued to confirm what many had speculated about for some time.

"I love him so f**king much, and I wanna tell you guys something, I wanna tell you," he continued.

"Tyler doesn't wanna say, but Tyler is my motherf**king boyfriend."

He later confirmed this declaration on Apple Music's Beats 1 Radio.

"I recently said that Tyler, the Creator is my boyfriend," Smith explained.

"That's true. So, just so you know."

Tyler, the Creator, once derided for his use of homophobic slurs in his earlier music, semi-came out last year when some of the lyrics on Flower Boy seemed to hint at his sexual fluidity.

In "Garden Shed", he talks about "kissing white boys since 2004" and back in 2015, he wrote on Twitter that he'd tried to come out but no one picked up on it.

Still, like everything Tyler, the Creator does, it needs to be taken with a grain of salt. 

Despite Jaden Smith double-downing on the goss, Tyler, the Creator is clearly seen at the end of the video denying Smith's on-stage claims. Also, Smith claims he's been his boyfriend his "whole f**king life", which is a little suspect.

I guess we'll find out the answers one day, but for now, let's just assume it's facts.
