PLAY ENTERTAINMENT ALL OUT THERE ON RED TABLE

love and loss, self- harm, addiction and recovery: There isn’t much Jada Pinkett Smith, her mum, Adrienne Banfield- Norris, and her 17- year- old daughter, Willow, aren’t willing to talk about around a shiny round red table in a unique Facebook show that has a growing, grateful audience of women.

And that, Pinkett Smith said in a recent interview, is the point. Pinkett Smith, who has been both TV talk show guest and TV talk show producer, considers “Red Table Talk” intimate, authentic and fluid, a combination difficult to achieve through more traditional channels. The weekly show debuted about a month ago on Facebook Watch and includes live extras like viewer questions and guest appearances by friends and family.

“It’s not about format,” she said. “I want to keep that organic flow. I don’t want anything to be forced.”

It certainly doesn’t feel that it is as the three generations venture into some sensitive territory.

So far, Willow has revealed that she was once a cutter, hated her Whip My Hair fame and years ago walked in on her mum and dad, Will Smith, having sex. Pinkett Smith said she herself was nine when her grandmother filled her in on the wonders of masturbation and she later spent a stretch of quality time alone with sex toys, sometimes achieving multiple orgasms in up to five forays in a single day.

Norris, fondly referred to as Gammy, spoke honestly about her past struggles with drug addiction and the pain of losing a daughter. Pinkett Smith and Gabrielle Union shared their 17- year feud and their mending of fences.
