‘I Rolled Into 50 Like…’: Jada Pinkett Smith Celebrates Her 50th Birthday Throwback Style
Roll. Bounce. Rock. Skate. Jada Pinkett Smith rolled her way into her birthday with a retro-themed party at a roller rink.
The Red Table Talk hostess turned the big 5-0 and she celebrated her milestone birthday with family and friends over the weekend. Her husband Will Smith along with their two sons, Jaden and Trey also attended her celebration, PEOPLE reported.
A number of celebrities also attended the festivities, including Jordyn Woods and her NBA player boyfriend Karl Anthony-Towns and actress Lauren London.
Jada’s daughter, Willow Smith, was absent from the festivities as she was set to perform at this year’s Life Is Beautiful Festival in Las Vegas. But the 20-year-old musician made sure to celebrate her mom and took to Instagram to give her mom a big birthday shoutout.
“Happy Birthday Ma,” captioned Willow underneath a photo of Jada.
The birthday girl shared a few highlights from the party on her Instagram stories. In one video Jada posed under a neon sign that read“ Jada’s Rolling Rink.” “I rolled into 50 like…” Jada captioned the clip, Yahoo News reported.
In another post, Jada shared a beautiful photo of the rolling rink at night, citing that she “got to skate under Mother Moon for the first time” in her life.
Jada’s mother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, made sure to wish her daughter happy birthday. On instagram she wrote, “so proud” of Jada for all that she has accomplished.
“50 years ago today @ 12:38pm you arrived weighing a whopping 7lbs 3 3/4 oz,” Bandfield-Norris began her heartfelt message.
“I was and still am so very proud. I thank God for the village of family and friends who helped me guide you over the years,” she continued. “I take very little credit for the incredible woman you have become. I am overwhelmed w gratitude. In this next season, I wish for you an abundance of love, laughter, health, wisdom, peace and just all the things as ordered by the divine. Life is short. Live yours to the fullest every day! You are my greatest pride, my beauty!! Happy birthday @jadapinkettsmith. I love you.”
Back in July, the Daytime Emmy Award nominee kicked off her birthday festivities early by preparing for the big milestone occasion with a buzzcut inspired by her daughter Willow.
