In a candid moment during one of their unconventional conversations, Jaden Smith told his sister, his goal is “to be the craziest of all time”.
Ah, the illustrious journey of Jaden Smith’s career—a delightful potluck of acting, music, and fashion that has left us all wondering, “What’s next on his agenda?” He first caught our eye as the charming child actor in The Pursuit of Happyness and The Karate Kid. Who could forget his epic karate moves and those heartwarming moments that made us all reach for the tissues? But, forget acting roles; He’s all about self-expression in ways that often make us feel like we need a manual to keep up!

Jaden and his sister Willow Smith share a fun relationship that’s like a never-ending episode of a quirky talk show. The former once made a surprising revelation by boldly stating his ambition to be the craziest person ever—a truly lofty goal!
Jaden Smith Has a Quest for Ultimate Craziness?
One of the perks of youth is that unique mix of self-confidence and self-awareness. Jaden and Willow Smith have successfully transformed this intense teenage introspection into creative expression rather than letting it spiral into boredom. Their conversations often veer into deep philosophical territory, tackling topics like identity, creativity, and societal norms.
In a 2014 interview with T Magazine (via NY Times), The Pursuit of Happyness star, now 26, dropped a line that would have anyone doing a double-take. He boldly stated his life goal is “to be the most craziest of all time.” And if you think that’s ambitious, wait until you hear the thoughts leading up to that declaration. He added:
And when I say craziest, I mean, like, I want to do like Olympic-level things. I want to be the most durable person on the planet.

Sure, he is no stranger to the spotlight, being the son of Hollywood heavyweights Will and Jada Pinkett Smith and the brother of the equally intriguing Willow Smith. When asked about their experience of time, the latter kicked things off with a revelation that might just make your head spin.
I mean, time for me, I can make it go slow or fast, however I please, and that’s how I know it doesn’t exist.
Jaden Smith chimed in, expanding on the idea:
It’s proven that how time moves for you depends on where you are in the universe. If you are aware in a moment, one second can last a year. But if you are unaware, your whole childhood can pass by in six seconds.
It’s as if he’s describing life through the lens of a surrealist filmmaker, where the mundane can transform into the extraordinary with just a shift in perspective.
The Smith Siblings on Life, Thought, & Art
The siblings’ conversation soon veered into creativity and the duality of thought. In the same interview, Jaden Smith passionately explained, “Your mind has a duality to it. When one thought goes into your mind, it’s not just one thought; it has to bounce off both hemispheres of the brain.” That’s right—when you think of something happy, there’s a sad thought waiting to smack it back. It’s all part of the complex game of life.

Willow Smith, not to be outdone, shared her insights on music, saying,
This is a fragment of a holographic reality that a higher consciousness made.
And here we thought pop stars were just here to sing catchy hooks!
Jaden Smith burst onto the scene alongside his dad, Will Smith, in the 2006 heartwarming flick The Pursuit of Happyness and later teamed up again in 2013 for the sci-fi adventure After Earth. Along the way, the former flexed his acting chops in The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) and The Karate Kid (2010).
After a three-year break, he dipped his toes back into acting in 2016 with the Netflix series The Get Down. The last time we saw him was in the 2021 documentary A Man Named Scott.
Speaking of Willow Smith, who is polyamorous, she made her acting debut in the 2007 blockbuster I Am Legend alongside her father and later graced the screen in Kit Kittredge: An American Girl. But don’t let her acting credits fool you; she really took the world by storm with her music career, bursting onto the scene with her catchy 2010 hit Whip My Hair.
It’s safe to say both siblings are keeping their creative plates full, whether it’s in film or music!
