Jada Pinkett-Smith is weighing in on the controversy set off by a photo of her 13-year-old daughter, Willow, and her daughter’s 20-year-old friend, Moises Arias. The questionable photo was posted on Arias’ Instagram page, but was quickly deleted after it became the subject of negative comments. The photo showed Willow lying on a bed with a shirtless Arias.
