According to AMAZON, in the revealing read, Davison gives fans an exposé on his biography and the never-been-told stories about his life.

The book also shares a surprising occurrence that happened between him and the Hollywood icon, Will Smith. Back in 1998, Tommy had committed a harmless faux pas where he kissed star actress, Jada Pinkett while on the set of "Woo."

PEOPLE shares that Davidson explained that he had no idea that kisses had to be rehearsed in movie making. He told PEOPLE:

"You can't just spring it on your costar … And I didn't think it was all that big of a deal."

It, however, turned out to be a big deal for Will Smith, who did not hesitate to warn Davidson off. Tommy added that Smith went:

"went all gangsta on me, saying what I did was not cool. There was a moment there when we might have come to blows. My reactive fight-or-flight instinct was triggered, and I could have exploded."

MADAM NOIRE adds that the altercation which could have resulted in a brawl was terminated when Jada interceded and calmed both men. After that time, Davidson and Pinkett maintained a healthy friendship.
