"There was even a little grayness to his skin," Will continued. "We got really nervous. But you're definitely looking better now."
Jaden Smith's family staged an "intervention" for him
Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith had to stage an intervention for their 21-year-old son Jaden Smith, as they have been "really nervous" about his eating habits.
On Jade's most recent episode Red Table Talk on Facebook, they explained how Will had to call an "emergency" meeting.

"Will and I had a bit of an intervention with Jaden because he's a vegan now, but we realised he wasn't getting enough protein," Jada said. "So he was wasting away. He just looked drained, he was just depleted, he wasn't getting the nutrients."
Will added that Jaden had "dark circles" under his eyes.
"I also just wanna say that I'm vegetarian, that I've tried to be vegan," Jaden said while on the show. "I'm vegetarian, you know, I've tried to eat vegan meals. I'll go vegan for a week or so but for the past year I've been vegetarian."
"I was just eating like two meals a day...maybe one," Jaden continued. "Maybe just that one big meal and I'm like, 'Oh, you know, I didn't get around to it.'"
Willow Smith, Trey Smith and Jada's mother Adrienne Banfield-Jones were also present for the chat.
