Pac never said goodbye to me before leaving for LA. He had to leave abruptly and it wasn't to pursue his career.

I've never been to any of Pac's shows by his request. We never had an argument backstage.

While it's a given that any biopic will take some creative license, some do so more gently or gracefully than others. In the case of All Eyez on Me, Pinkett Smith described the film's "reimagining" of her friendship with the late rapper as "deeply hurtful."
Even as Pinkett Smith voiced her displeasure, though, she made sure to clarify that she did not blame the actors for playing their roles.
To @KatGraham and @Dshippjr this is no fault of yours. Thank you for bringing so much heart and spirit to your roles.
