Jada Pinkett Smith got a little touchy-feely with one of her co-workers at one of her past jobs, which is also probably one of the best jobs in the world.
In comments made on the radio show On Air With Ryan Seacrest on Thursday, the actress talked about her experience filming Magic Mike XXL , the sequel to the hit 2012 male stripper film.
Naturally, she was mesmerized by the sight of hot, greased-up, muscular, half-naked men on the set, telling host Ryan Seacrest that her knee "literally buckled" at the sight of "such physical beauty." But there was one actor who drew her attention more than anybody. Nope, not main star Channing Tatum. Matt Bomer.
"I was so glad that he didn't sue me for sexual harassment. I really was," Pinkett Smith said. "Because every time I saw Matt, my first thing is I put my hand on his chest and rub his chest and say, 'Hey, Matt!'"
"And I realized...if he did that to me, it'd be a problem," she continued. "I had to take a day and apologize. I was like, 'You know, I realize every time I see you, I touch your chest and that's just not right and I'm sorry. I am sorry."
The actress said Bomer was cool with it.
In Magic Mike XXL, Pinkett Smith plays a strip club owner and emcee, a role originally written for a man. She said her character and Magic Mike, played by Tatum, also have personal history, which makes it a bit tense when he comes to her to ask for some help.
Magic Mike XXL is set for release on July 1 and is rated R for strong sexual content, language, drug use and some nudity. In an interview with Power 105 FM, Pinkett Smith said the movie was almost rated NC-17 and was then scaled down after a scene starring Michael Strahan was edited.
"We were screening the movie and they were like, 'You have to just wait because we have to tone Michael's scene down—at one particular point in time I think it was an NC-17 rating!" she said. "I was like 'What? I'm a grown woman I can watch that!'"
The actress joked that Magic Mike XXL is "Disneyland compared to what kids are seeing on the Internet." Pinkett Smith and husband Will Smith have two teenage children, Jaden Smith, 16, and Willow Smith, 14.
"When I'm sitting with Willow and going through the Tumblr feed, she always tells me, she's like, 'Mom, this is not me, it's a feed, I'm not in control of this!'" Pinkett Smith said. "And the stuff that I see come through there, I'm like, I cannot believe children are exposed to this stuff."
"It's crazy," she said, joking, "So Magic Mike, in my eyes, I would prefer Willow see that!"
