Drake made quite the fashion statement at this weekend’s iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas — wearing a shirt with Jaden Smith’s face on it.

But it was not just any Jaden Smith face.

It appears to be the face Smith made while enraptured by Drake’s performance at last month’s MTV Video Music Awards (see below).

The young actor’s amazed reaction to Drake’s VMAs performance came shortly after he and his family infamously responded to Lady Gaga’s show-opening song (with shocked faces widely — and wrongly — labeled a reaction to Miley Cyrus’ racy performance that night).

In other words, crowd shots from the VMAs continue to drive popular culture.

Check out the original Jaden Smith face and Drake’s appropriation below.

Jaden Smith: If Everyone “Dropped Out of School” We’d Have An “Intelligent Society”

Truth rating: 10

Jaden Smith recently offered some questionable thoughts about education on Twitter.

The 15-year-old son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett tweeted to his 4.5 million followers, “School Is The Tool To Brainwash The Youth” and “If Everybody In The World Dropped Out Of School We Would Have A Much More Intelligent Society.”

Smith added, “If Newborn Babies Could Speak They Would Be The Most Intelligent Beings On Planet Earth.”

The singer-actor also wrote, “Education Is Rebellion,” which seems to go against his previous tweets.

It’s not clear whether Smith was quoting someone else — or what exactly he was getting at.

What do you think of his comments?

The “Will Smith and Family Reacting to Miley Cyrus” VMAs Picture Is A Lie

The entire Internet is passing around a screenshot (see right) from Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards that supposedly shows Will Smith and his children Willow and Jaden looking horrified during Miley Cyrus’ raunchy performance.

Everyone is wrong.

The moment captured on MTV’s “audience cam” actually shows the Smiths watching Lady Gaga’s “Applause” show opener.

Us Weekly, Buzzfeed, Yahoo!, and thousands of Twitter users ignored the image in the lower right-hand corner of the shot (see below), which actually shows who was on stage at the time — Gaga, NOT Cyrus.

Sure enough, Gossip Cop checked the full replay of MTV’s “Live All Access” feed, and the now-infamous Smith reaction shot comes at 03:04:17 — smack in the middle of Gaga’s performance, which, it should be noted, the Smiths applauded just a few seconds later.

While the world had plenty of reactions to Cyrus’ racy VMAs stage show, the Smiths’ is NOT one of them.
