Corey Holcomb’s Claims About Will Smith Ignite Controversy
Corey Holcomb has come into the limelight following his controversial remarks regarding Will Smith during an interview with Cam Newton. This particular clip, which gained traction on social media as of April 6, 2024, contains Holcomb alleging that Smith may have an attraction to men.
Insights from the Interview
In the conversation, Cam Newton appeared to hint at Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith’s involvement in non-monogamous relationships, referencing their openness about such arrangements:
“Will Smith and Jada, they’ve been open about, they have an open relationship.”
To this statement, Holcomb responded with unrestrained boldness:
“But Will like guys.”
Holcomb asserts that his experience living in Los Angeles has given him insights into Smith’s attractions, even suggesting that his own struggles in Hollywood stem from the fear of association with certain individuals. He expressed:
“I’m saying like, do you think me saying we like guys because I said it and I can’t take it back because I believe it. I know it for the most part by me saying that I hope it doesn’t strike a nerve in anybody. But I’m saying I live in LA and there’s a lifestyle that is kept quiet.”
Concept of a ‘Secret Society’
Newton characterized the lifestyle Holcomb mentioned as a “secret society,” a term with which Holcomb agreed. He highlighted the ongoing struggles faced by those who feel compelled to conform to societal norms, resulting in secrecy surrounding their true identities.

Smith emphasized the importance of trust and freedom within their marriage, asserting they don’t want their relationship to feel restrictive at any point. He remarked:
