Will Smith is continuing to field jokes and memes aimed at the “entanglement” his wife Jada Pinkett Smith found herself in with R&B singer August Alsina.
On Wednesday, the “Hitch” actor took to Instagram and shared a video of himself jumping rope, which all but set up the opportunity for one clever commenter to fire off a joke.
"Ok don't get entangled," the Instagram user wrote, adding a laughing-crying emoji.

He also addressed the use of the word "entanglement."
“I don’t know why that word is such an issue. I would agree [with Jada]. If you look up the definition of ‘entanglement,’ it is a complex and difficult relationship," Alsina explained to the outlet.
