Jordyn Woods says Tristan Thompson kissed her, denies having sex
Jordyn Woods is finally speaking her truth.
On Friday, Woods, 21, sat down with Jada Pinkett Smith on “Red Table Talk” to discuss the cheating scandal involving Tristan Thompson that turned her world upside down.
On the Facebook show, Pinkett Smith said she invited Woods to “heal, deal, and move forward.”
“This is grown woman mess on another level,” Woods said in response.
Woods has known the Smith family since she was a child because her late father helped produce “Fresh Prince of Bel Air” with Pinkett Smith’s husband, Will Smith. Prior to the sit-down, Smith called in to offer Woods words of encouragement.
“This world is not going to break you. We won’t allow it,” Smith said.
In the interview, Woods said she was enjoying a night out in Los Angeles and coincidentally happened to see Thompson at the same bar.
“He was doing his own thing — that was it,” she said.
Woods said, in typical “LA culture,” she got invited to go to an afterparty, which happened to be at Thompson’s house. The NBA star did not personally invite her.
“I’m not thinking, ‘I shouldn’t be here,'” Woods said. “That’s my first step where I went wrong.”
She added, “I should have gone home after the party. I shouldn’t even have been there.”
On Feb. 19, a Hollywood Unlocked reporter alleged she saw Thompson and Woods getting touchy-feely with each other at a house party, while Thompson was still dating Khloé Kardashian. The source said the pair couldn’t “keep their hands off each other.”
Woods denied those allegations, saying, “Never once was I giving him a lap dance, making out with him, sitting all over him. It’s just — we’re all together,” she said. “We’re in a group. Never once did we leave the public area to go to a bedroom, a bathroom — we’re all in plain sight.”
However, she did admit to putting her legs on Thompson. “I understand why that would be the story.”
But on Woods’ way out of the afterparty, she said, Thompson kissed her.
“It was a kiss on the lips, but no tongue kiss. No making out,” she said. “I don’t think he’s wrong either because I allowed myself to be in that position. When alcohol is involved, people make dumb moves.”
Woods and Kardashian’s sister Kylie Jenner grew up together and have been best friends for years. She even modeled for Kardashian’s clothing line, Good American, and lived in Jenner’s mansion. Woods told Pinkett Smith that she spoke to Jenner prior to the interview, but “it’s gone too far.”
It’s unclear when the former friends spoke, but immediately following the scandal, an insider told Page Six that Kardashian and Jenner were not returning Woods’ calls.
“Jordyn has been reaching out to Khloé and Kylie trying to make amends because she realized what she did was wrong,” the source said. “She feels bad that she betrayed people who were there for her more than her mother has.”
