Jada-Pinkett Smith's Show Canceled: Marc Anthony Says 'Affair Laughable'
Jada-Pinkett Smith’s show HawthroRNe in which the actress plays a nurse in a Virginia, has been canceled by the TNT network.
Smith has been entangled in a number of scandals these last few months including a rumored split from husband Will Smith and an alleged affair with singer Marc Anthony, who also recently separated from his wife Jennifer Lopez.
The actress was referenced by rapper Drake to “Set it Off” like Jada Pinkett, a phrase coined after the actress stared in the 1996 film “Set if Off.” The metaphor accurately describes the type of summer Mrs. Smith is having after her alleged split with Will Smith set off a storm of controversy, including the news with Marc Anthony, and now TNT pulling the plug on HawthoRNe.
