Remember when Jaden Smith wore a Batman suit to Kim and Kanye's wedding [1] last May? And then when he wore it again to prom this year [2]? We've more or less been scratching our heads about it this whole time, but in a new interview with GQ Magazine [3], Jaden Smith finally explains the motivation behind the suit. Read on for the quotes about his personal ties to Batman, and then dive into some of his weirdest tweets [4].
- The reasoning behind the Batman [5] suit: "I wore the Batman [6] suit to heighten my experience at the wedding and prom which was fun, but also at the wedding I felt as though I needed to protect everyone there and needed to have the proper gear to do so."
- The Batman suit ties into his childhood outfits: "I remember these duck boots. They were just duck boots, but I would wear the normal Batman suit or my Spider-Man suit with them and never take them off."
- He even tries to emulate Batman's style, apparently: "My style icons are Batman, Robin, Nightwing, Superman, and Kanye West [7]."
