Jaden Smith Takes His Caped Crusader Game To The Next Level With 'Batman' Music Video
He's worn an all-white Batman costume to San Diego Comic-Con, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding and even prom and now he's back with a full-length music video.
Jaden Smith is suiting up again. He's worn an all-white Batman costume to San Diego Comic-Con, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding and even prom and now he's back with a full-length music video titled "Batman":
The video depicts a young Bruce Wayne (Smith) living extravagantly until he's called upon to defend the city from Superman and ... another Batman?
It's a mashup of the strangest components of Batman's origins, including the brief-yet-canonical adaptation of Batman's all-white suit in the "White Lantern" arc of DC Comics. Perhaps this fascination with Batman is only fitting since Jaden's parents, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, have both played DC characters in Suicide Squad and Gotham?
Jaden gave an explanation for the suit during an interview with Vanity Fair:
"I wore the Batman suit to heighten my experience at the wedding and prom which was fun, but also at the wedding I felt as though I needed to protect everyone there and needed to have the proper gear to do so."
Who knows, maybe the young actor/musician will even play the Dark Knight for real someday.

The Pearl by John Steinbeck
‘The Pearl’ is a well-known by under-read classic and, as a teacher, many of my students have absolutely loved it. Not just because it is short, but because it presents a storyline that is interesting and corrupting. Easy to read and easier to analyse, ‘The Pearl’ is one of Steinbeck’s hardest hitting classics with an underlying message about protecting what is actually important. By the end of the book, the reader is left defeated and believing in the wrong thing. The idealism around this book is incredible and it is so dark too. For a long while you are supporting the wrong people, thinking in the wrong way and the whole story becomes one long act of misdirection by Steinbeck to show in a ‘Monkey’s Paw’ fashion why we should never chase wealth and status.

Palm Royale's 2nd episode - "Maxine Saves a Cat"
The episode starts with Maxine in a fashion war with Evelyn (who asks about Norma) and her usual grasshopper drink. Maxine realizes that she is a temporary member of the club. She requires the sponsorship of three members to solidify her position so she seeks two others apart from Dinah. Douglas introduced himself to Dinah as "Douglas Dellacorte Simmons". Seeing the benefit of mentioning the Dellacorte name, Maxine asks if they could drop the Simmons and go by Dellacorte. He tells her the name comes with a lot of baggage and "you don't have to prove yourself, Maxine Simmons" which she doesn't accept.
