Jasmine Guy Emotionally Recounts Tupac Shakur's Prediction Of Not Living Past 25
Jasmine Guy shared a haunting encounter she had with Tupac Shakur before his untimely death.
In a interview on The Breakfast Club, Guy disclosed that Tupac Shakur confided in her about his belief that he wouldn't survive past the age of 25 after his release from prison in October 1995. Reflecting on the conversation, Guy, 62, admitted that she didn't dwell on it much at the time.

"I always just thought he was talking s**t all the time. 'That's legend, put that in the book.' I was like, 'N***a, I'm not writing a book about you.' "
Guy shared that she would have urged the "Dear Mama" emcee to stop sharing such thoughts with her. She felt it was best to keep their conversations private, especially since she didn't fully understand his world. Guy found it hard to believe Tupac's claim that he wouldn't live past 25, which deeply affected her.
" 'I'd be like I'm never telling anybody anything about this experience.' And he kept telling me — he was like 21 — and I really didn't understand that world. He knew I wasn't from it. I thought it was ridiculous for him to say he wasn't gonna live past 25... so that hurt."
Guy, best known as Whitley in 'A Different World,' revealed that Shakur resided in her New York home after surviving a robbery where he was shot five times at Quad Studios in November 1994, two years before his fatal shooting.
