Will Smith left his fans surprised as he leaned in to kiss singer India Martinez during the course of their performance at Premio Lo Nuestro awards.

Will Smith sparked an outrage on social media after his steamy performance with Spanish singer India Martínez at the Premio Lo Nuestro awards ceremony in Miami went viral. The duo’s on-stage kiss has led to a major controversy, with many calling Will’s act ‘inappropriate’. Netizens are also questioning their sultry interaction, amid his unusual marriage with his wife, actor Jada Pinkett Smith.

Will performed with Martínez on stage at the Premio Lo Nuestro awards on Thursday. The actor joined the singer on stage to sing the song “First Love”. While they were singing together, their ‘head-turning’ performance raised quite a few eyebrows. The duo also shared a kiss during the course of the performance. Will and India’s backstage pictures also showed her jumping into his arms and wrapping her legs around him.

Many social media users took to the comment section of India’s Instagram post with Will and expressed their thoughts on the joint appearance. A user wrote, “This is the worst,” while another said, “Inappropriate, even if it is entertainment.” “It’s like someone’s dad’s on karaoke with a drunk local woman,” one fan commented. A person wrote, “Embarrassing”.

However, many users pointed out that the kiss was an on-stage stunt rather than a sincere romantic gesture between the two. Smith is seen leaning in for a kiss when Martínez is seen rejecting him and walking past, only to return to him and kissing Will.
His performance grabbed even more eyeballs because of the ongoing speculation around his unconventional marriage with Jada Pinkett Smith. Although, the former couple has been separated since 2016, they announced in 2023 that they haven’t filed for divorce. As per a source by PEOPLE, “They are living their own lives but haven’t completely severed ties. Call it what you want.”

Will and Jada married in 1997. In 2023, Jada commented on the relationship, saying ‘we’re still figuring it out’. “We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just got deep love for each other and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us. I’m going to be by his side … but also allow him to have to figure this out for himself.”
