What are your plans this weekend? Cool, cancel them because He’s All That is hitting Netflix and obviously it needs to take priority. Why, you ask? First of all, its predecessor She’s All That is simultaneously the greatest and most bizarre teen movie of the ’90s. Like, I’m still recovering from the hacky sack scene over two decades later. And second of all, this is a movie about relationship drama starring a buncha people with relationship drama in real life. The only way it could get more meta is if Rachel Leigh Cook was in it—oh wait, she freakin’ is.
Just…randomly…dropping…this…here.
Obviously, watching He’s All That can lead to some extreme side effects, including but not limited to wondering what the hell is up with Addison Rae’s inexplicable friendship with Kourtney Kardashian, and needing to know everything about the IRL romantic life of the cast. Like, did Addison and Tanner have a ~thing~ behind-the-scenes? And is Madison Pettis actually dating Jaden Smith? While I truly wish I could spend all day answering these and the rest of life’s most important questions, we’re here to talk about Madison, those Jaden Smith rumors, and her previous celebrity relationships. Time to enthusiastically dive in, much like Addison Rae is enthusiastically diving into the world of acting no matter how many people beg her not to!
Madison Used to Date Jaden Smith…and They’re Hanging Out Again
So, several slightly random corners of the internet claim that Madison and Jaden Smith dated all the way back in 2010, a year so long ago I barely remember who I was, where I was, or what I was doing with my life. But it looks like history is repeating itself Bennifer style, because these two are kinda-maybe hanging again. At least according to The Daily Mail, who back in June reported that Jaden and Madison had “put on an affectionate display” while at the Nice Guy. Though honestly, the pics make it seem like they’re just two friends chilling out at dinner, but okay, Daily Mail!
She Was in a Serious Relationship with Michael Porter Jr.
Madison’s most major public relationship was with basketball player Michael Porter Jr. from November 2016 to May 2017. Michael told the Kansas City Star back in 2017 that their vibes were super chill, saying, “Part of it has to do with, she’s in the public eye and I’m in the public eye. We realize that we’re both busy people, so we don’t have to always be texting. I could just give her a phone call at night and she’ll be fine with it.”
Apparently these two met on Instagram (romance!), with Michael saying, “Me and her had talked a little bit. We started following each other on Instagram. One day, I saw she commented happy birthday on one of my pictures. She’s been a kind of a crush of mine for a minute and I had to slide her some DMs. I just said ‘What’s Up’ and somehow she saw it and replied and the rest is history.”
No clue why they broke up, but Michael went on to briefly date The Bachelor’s Madison Prewett (aka Pilot Pete’s runner-up).
Madison Has Had a Few Other Casual Relationships
None of these are super confirmed, but apparently Madison dated Bryce Cass back in 2009, and Kalin White in 2016. Maybe they met at this party? Unclear, but she was a teenager at the time so obviously everything was pretty casual:
@madisonpettis haha I was so nervous! Thank you for having us!!! 🎉💝🌹
That’s about all we know about Madison’s dating life, but we’ll update ya if she and Jaden end up commenting on those dating rumors.
