Jaden Smith is starring in a new fashion spread for British GQ magazine and is speaking out about the frenzy surrounding his highly controversial campaign as the first man to front Louis Vuitton’s womenswear line.

Get into an exclusive preview of his cover shoot and interview for the new issue of GQ Style Spring/Summer 2016, hitting both digital and physical newsstands on Thursday 17 March. Interviewed by Mark Jacobs (not the designer) and photography by Terry Tsiolis.

On his sister Willow:

“I’d say it’s like full-on sibling brain connection. I’d say that she’s definitely the female version of me, one hundred per cent, in every single way. And I’d say I’m the male version of her.”

On crossing the gender divide with his clothing choices:

“I feel like people are kind of confused about gender norms. I feel like people don’t really get it. I’m not saying that I get it, I’m just saying that I’ve never seen any distinction. I don’t see man clothes and woman clothes, I just see scared people and comfortable people.”

On hanging out with the Kardashians:

“I think I’m just a really big influence on anybody that I’m around, and I feel like that’s why it’s good for me to hang out with all types of different people.”

On his goal of building a utopia on Earth:

“I’m really working towards just fixing the whole planet Earth. I really just want to create a utopia on this planet. I really want to make it so that people don’t have to die to pay bills and just work to survive. So that they can work to actually live and do the things that they love to do.”
