Jada Pinkett-Smith Files to Dismiss Brother Bilal Lawsuit

Last year Will Smith's former friend and personal assistant, Brother Bilal, filed a civil lawsuit against Jada Pinkett-Smith for intentional infliction of emotional distress after Jada denied wild allegations Bilal made about Will Smith and Duane Martin [click here if you missed that].

Now Jada has filed to dismiss...

From TMZ

Jada filed court docs demanding the lawsuit -- which is asking for $3 million in damages -- brought by Bilaal Salaam be thrown out. The actress asserts that Bilaal’s case is nonsense.

The "Girls Trip" star said all of Bilaal’s claims were “false, uncorroborated and made to generate attention as part of an ongoing public campaign of harassment directed at” her and her family.

Jada said Bilaal’s lawsuit seeks to punish her for her “constitutionally protected speech on a matter of intense public interest about her family.”

The entertainer accused Bilaal of having a fixation on the Smith family and claimed she did not mention Bilaal’s name when speaking out about the matter.

As TMZ previously reported, Bilaal sued Jada in November 2025 for intentional infliction of emotional distress.
