Jada Pinkett Smith stuns in a gold, back revealing dress as she graces the cover of the September 2012 issue of Essence magazine.

Inside the mag the 40 year-old actress dishes on her efforts to put an end to human trafficking, a conversation with Angelina Jolie, and divorce rumors surrounding her and husband Will Smith.

On human trafficking: “When something speaks to you as brightly and as strongly as this particular issue speaks to me, you just put every resource that you have to move things forward. That’s what we do, we move fast. It’s the entertainment business. You have to move like a rocket. We’re talking about people’s lives…”

On a conversation with Angelina Jolie: “I called Angelina Jolie and said,  ‘Ange, I need you, girl. Did you know we have slaves in this county?’. She said, ‘Jada, I’ve been working on this for years – are you kidding  me?’ So I sat on the phone with Angelina and of course it was like going  to college. She schooled me.”

On divorce rumors: “It seems like that happens at least once a year, or at least once every two years – it’s rumored that we’re  getting a divorce. But no, we’re not getting a divorce. Where am I going to go? That’s my boo. It’s like he’s another part of me.”
