Ever since Rosé opened up about her past heartbreak, fans have been curious to know who her “toxic ex” is, and the speculation is running wild.
After the release of her debut album “rosie” and title track “toxic till the end”, many are convinced that Jaden Smith is the mystery ex.
It is speculated that both dated in 2019, when they met each other at Coachella. The American singer-songwriter had pink hair at the time, and Evan Mock who stars as “The Ex” in “toxic till the end” MV also has pink hair.
It is worth noting that Jaden dated popular actress Odessa from 2017 to 2019 and influencer Sab Zada from 2020 to August 2024.
Rosé and Jaden Smith were regularly spotted together between 2019 and 2023. At one point, he even followed her on Instagram, though he later unfollowed her.
In addition, the 26-year-old artist also mentioned the “APT.” singer in one of his songs, “Her Voice,” released in 2020. The lyrics goes, “Rosé, a bucket of ice.”
Another clue that has fans convinced is Jaden Smith’s song “Still in Love”, released in 2021. The lyrics talk about a long-distance relationship, which many think is about his alleged relationship with Rosé. Given that she spent most of her time in Korea during those years due to BLACKPINK’s activities, the lyrics seem to fit the timeline.
Fans believe she recreated her 2019 Coachella outfit in her music video for “toxic till the end”, which is also the same look she wore in a photo alongside Jaden Smith, her fellow BLACKPINK members, and other artists.
On the other hand, some fans disagree and compare finding Rosé ex to a “witch hunt.” They point out that Jaden Smith has been in a relationship for the past four years, and if things had ended badly with Rosé, it’s unlikely they would have appeared so friendly at Coachella 2023.
