BREAKING: Jaden Smith, Son of Will Smith, Arrested by Police After Using Drugs at Birthday Party
Paris, September 3, 2025 – Jaden Smith, son of Hollywood stars Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, has been in the spotlight after a shocking incident at a birthday party in Paris. According to sources, Jaden, 27, was arrested by police last night in connection with drug use at a party with friends.
Incident Details

According to media reports, Jaden Smith was reportedly attending a birthday party at a private location in Paris. During the party, local police received a tip about suspicious activity and conducted a check. At the scene, they found Jaden and a group of friends in possession of drug paraphernalia, including a blue bong and a lighter. Although there were no specific images of Jaden using drugs at the time, the presence of these items led to him being detained by police for further investigation.
The incident comes amid Jaden’s previous drug-related controversy. Previously, in June 2025, he was caught sitting on a park bench in Paris at 3am with a friend, next to a water pipe. This event raised concerns about Jaden’s drug habits, especially since possession of cannabis is illegal in France.
Reactions from the Public and Family

The arrest has sparked controversy on social media and in the media. Many fans expressed disappointment, believing that Jaden, a talented artist with many achievements in music and acting, is going “off track”. Others have called for sympathy, suggesting that the pressures of growing up in a famous family may have affected him.

The Smith family, including Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, have not yet made an official comment on the incident. However, Jaden has revealed in the past that his mother, Jada, introduced psychedelics to the family as a way to improve his mental health and build family relationships. At a 2023 psychedelic science conference, Jaden said that using these substances helped him feel more loving and empathetic towards his siblings.

Background and Concerns

Jaden Smith is not the only member of the Smith family to be criticized for his drug involvement. His sister, Willow Smith, recently faced criticism after being caught smoking marijuana with music legend George Clinton. The image, shared by their grandmother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, has sparked controversy as some have suggested it promotes drug use.

Sources close to Jaden say friends and family are concerned he is heading down a “dangerous path”. A source told RadarOnline: “Jaden is a good person, but he has been spoiled from a young age and has done what he wants without thinking about the consequences. The fact that he showed up in Paris at 3am with drug paraphernalia is a worrying sign.”

Jaden Smith’s Future
Jaden Smith, who rose to fame with roles in The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) and The Karate Kid (2010), is now pursuing a music and acting career. He recently starred in the Karate Kid: Legends movie, which is set to be released on Netflix in late September 2025. However, this arrest could affect his image in the eyes of the public and producers.
The details of the arrest are still under investigation, and it is unclear whether Jaden will face formal charges. Cannabis and related substances are still illegal in France, and possession of them can result in severe penalties.
Conclusion
Jaden Smith’s case is a reminder of the pressures young stars face in the spotlight. While some say he needs support to overcome his difficulties, others emphasize the responsibility of public figures to set an example for young people. Regardless of the outcome of this case, fans around the world are hoping Jaden will find a positive direction to continue developing his career and personal life.
