Willow Smith continues to give interviews in support of her hit single, “Whip My Hair”. I just watched the video again this morning (on VH1), and I currently have it stuck in my head, which is really annoying and I know, totally random. Anyway, Willow seems to think that she’s super-successful these days because of her own hard work, and how she always dreamt of “being famous like mommy and daddy.” That’s a pet peeve of mine for the younger generation. All too often, they don’t say they want to be “successful” or “be a really great —”. They say they want to be “famous”. Ugh. Anyway, here’s more:
Willow Smith has confessed that she is proud of herself for having secured a record deal at such a young age. The 9-year-old – who signed with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label last month – released the video for her first single ‘Whip My Hair’ on Monday.
“It felt like all the hard work paid off, mostly that,” she told MTV News about the signing. “Like all the hard work that I’ve done, like recording ‘Whip My Hair’ – it’s paid off.”
Recalling the day of her big meeting with the label, she said: “We went to this building, I don’t remember what it was, but we had a meeting and I got to hang out with [Jay-Z] and meet him, and it was fun.”
When Willow Smith explains why she entered the music business, she talks about expressing her individuality, and wanting to help people with her message. But she also acknowledges that she wanted to be famous like her “mommy and daddy.”
She’s well on her way now. The 9-year-old daughter of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith has become a viral sensation with her first single, “Whip My Hair.” The official version of the video has gotten more than 7 million views on YouTube; there was even a popular video that mashed the song with the Sesame Street “I Love My Hair” video (which she laughed and called “very funny”).
Willow’s funky song, which makes its debut on iTunes on Tuesday, is even being played in the clubs, and she’s due to release her first album on Jay-Z’s Roc Nation sometime next year.
In a phone interview Monday, Willow said she was “very surprised” about the success of the song, but said she thought the song’s message was resonating with listeners: “I just think that it’s like, individuality that they’re excited about.”
Willow first entered the limelight three years ago, playing the daughter of her father’s character in the blockbuster movie “I Am Legend.” At that time, it seemed as if she would follow in the acting footsteps of her parents, much like her brother, Jaden, who earlier this year had his own smash movie with the remake of “The Karate Kid.”
But Willow was more influenced by her parents’ musical careers: Will Smith is a Grammy winner who got his start rapping, and Jada Pinkett Smith has toured the country as part of a metal band.
“I would go on tour with them and watch them and I’d be like, ‘Oh my gosh, that’s what I wanna do,'” she said. Willow said she decided not to wait to pursue her musical career until she got older – say, as a teenager.
“I wanted to make a difference now, (and) because I wanted to be big and famous like my mommy and daddy and help people,” she said.

Well, at least she added “help people” at the end. It’s strange to think of someone being helped by a 9-year-old’s largesse, but stranger things have happened, and I do think/hope that Will and Jada have stressed the importance of charity and “giving back.” Will is known as a nice guy who treats everyone with respect, so hopefully Willow will follow in his footsteps.

brat
Somehow I feel she will go the “Jada” route.
Hard work for a 9 year old should be learning cursive!
Ummm you’re 9 years old. Try thanking your mega superstar parents instead.
It’s all downhill from here….lol.
Most young people equate fame with success. Mostly thats the case, sometimes fame does equal success, and sometimes its not.
I really like the Smith family. They are a good solid family with no crazy BS and they are raising some seriously talented kids. Its good. If there aspirations are to follow in their parents foot steps good for them. Will and Jada are good parents, they will undoubtedly be their for guidance. Will is extremely successful and he will only give his kids the best advise in the world.
Also Whip My Hair is a viral success. The song was a hit but the video blew it up and thats rare nowadays that a video really propels the song and artist to where suddenly everyone knows you, is singing your song, and it can be considered a huge success.
Uncanny: Willow is the splitting image of Daddy Will!
There is something seriously wrong with her parents. I will pass on any Will/Jada projects in the future including their children’s endeavors.
Listen up, skunk head: you are 9 YEARS OLD — you don’t even begin to know what hard work is and you probably never will. Work a couple of jobs, go to school….oh wait — you’re too young to do all that!
I disagree Kaiser — if Will & Jada had an ounce of sense between either of them they’d tell their little girl that this is her time to be a CHILD and there is plenty of time to be a grown up later, after she grows up. She sounds silly prattling on about her hard work and her music contract.
And Will can be the nicest guy ever — he’s just been reduced to Dina Lohan status in my book. Pushing a 9 year old into the music business with Jay-Z? A known thug? Really? This is what passes for good parenting in Hollywood?
Insert standard rant about spoiled Hollywood brats here. blech
and by “all the hard work” she means “daddy’s money and connections”
@ Just A Poster I don’t even think they bother to teach cursive these days unfortunately .
any way , does she go to school because she was on some show called ” 106 & Park ” and she was struggling a lot to read a plaque that was given to her , there’s video of it somewhere on youtube . I just hope she keeps up with her education .
I can’t blame her for being little brat, but I can blame her parents. This is Wil’s ego plain and simple he is already a world wide movie star so why not make his children famous?
how is she a brat? i think shes cute. she wants to be famous b/c shes from a show-biz fam. who is suprised?
i think she will be fine!
LOL Like she will ever have to “work hard” with the connections her parents have. She will never even know what “hard work” really is.
I’m conflicted about this situation. On one hand I like that Will and Jada encourage their children to be creative but on the other it’s as if they’re being handed things that people take years to reach. Willow hasn’t “worked hard”. Working hard as a singer means moving to another city, performing every night in a local band, or working your demo tape. Not your dad called Jay-z and they got the best producers money could buy to auto tune your first single sans demo tape.
Delta I don’t think thats true. Just because your family is connected doesn’t mean you don’t have to work hard. Take Colin Hanks for example…you don’t know who that is? Well thats Tom Hanks son who happens to be an actor, never heard of him? Well there ya go. He is gonna have to work very hard to get any where near the success his dad is and his dad is hella successful. He has TWO Oscars. Your family can only take so far in Hollywood, the public has to WANT you and thats where the hard work comes in.
Bopa said, “Not your dad called Jay-z and they got the best producers money could buy to auto tune your first single sans demo tape.”
Exactly.
@Bopa, copy that. And being a great actor takes more than your dad buying the rights to remake of an 80s hit movie so you can play the lead. Creativity is good, but if all these kids have to do to ‘express’ themselves is have mom or dad pick up the phone, call in a favor or open their checkbook then they’re in for a bumpy ride.
I’m curious what Will and Jada’s reasoning is in pushing/letting their kids work. On one hand, it’s gross nepotism; on the other, these kids are never going to be “normal” so why not get them started at a young age while mom and dad can still effectively shape and control their paths?
I cannot imagine raising kids in that environment.
LOL @ Angelina…..yeah, I’ve heard of Colin Hanks. I know who he is and I know who his dad is. Thanks for assuming though.

“…..any way , does she go to school because she was on some show called ” 106 & Park ” and she was struggling a lot to read a plaque that was given to her , there’s video of it somewhere on youtube . I just hope she keeps up with her education .
…………………………..
She stumbled over the word ‘congratulates’ – no biggy. Given the size of the plaque, i’m guessing that the word was split over 2 lines. Even as she was correctly pronouncing it, the hosts helped her. Perhaps if they have not butted in, you would have heard her pronounce it successfully on her own.
That one word (because she read the rest of the plaque beautifully and without further help) is not an indicattion of the level of her education.
Bottomline, dont worry about that child (or any celeb child). i suspect they will all grow up to be more and better at everything they do than you could ever dream of for yourself.
Her song and video are too awful for words- I can’t believe that her parents would want this kind of life for a 9 year old. It’s really creepy.
Delta I am just trying to point out that famous and powerful family doesn’t make it any easier to emulate that success, there will be hard work for Willow and she says that video shoot was hard work and I bet it was. Just because she put out song doesn’t mean it would be a success, luckily it is.
To Everyone else complaining that Willow is to young to be doing this business, where are these complaints when there were posts on the little girl who plays Sally on Mad Men? That little girl is a year older than Willow and she is on a very adult show. Is it kids acting vs singing you have a problem with or what?
Bottomline, dont worry about that child (or any celeb child). i suspect they will all grow up to be more and better at everything they do than you could ever dream of for yourself.
****************
What a bitchy and assumptive comment, AWHODAT.
She’s come under a lot of criticism for not acting her age, but I beg to differ. She’s a positive, fun, and talented kid. Let her do her thing!
I agree that the “hard work” = mum and dad’s name and connections.
While there’s all sorts of paths to growing up and being successful, it’s still handy to be able to read and write, do math and have a sense of real life. Not saying Willow doesn’t have a handle on those life skills but I kind of agree with the poster who mentioned Will being only a step above Dina Lohan, ouch.
@ams511 How is she a brat? she thinks she worked hard for her demo point blank there are people who are just as talented or more talented than her who have worked hard to get demos but haven’t because they don’t have the same connections. Her demo may be passable but she is famous at her age because of her dad and her uncle Jay-Z it isn’t her fault at this time because she is too young and sheltered to realize the advantages she has gotten but she is still a brat.
@Bopa–exactly. And it’s unfortunate if her parents haven’t explained to her the advantages they have. She could grow up without that entitlement if her parents explain how fortunate they are because there are many talented actors and singers who never gain they status they have.
Ugh. It all makes me sad.
Jen.. you stated EXACTLY what I’ve been thinking too!
If Will and Jada were really vested in their kids health and well-being, they’d have said to THEM ALL that they’d help them with their ‘careers’ AFTER they finished SCHOOL (anyone remember the fact that Will’s MOM is still pissed at him for not going to college?). They’ll always have their families surname to keep ensure them a better shot at fame LATER on in life… they only have one childhood, and they’re missing out on that.
Can’t WAIT to the the train wrecks these kids will be in 10 years.. gonna make Lindsay Lohan look like an angel.
Come on, now we’re harshing on a 9-year-old because she said she “wants to be famous”? She’s NINE! Please. At nine I wanted to be a veterinarian and own a pet shop. Good thing that my words weren’t being analyzed by adults or I would have been criticized for indirectly supporting puppy mills.
And I just have to bring up the JLO thread from last week. Does anybody remember? You know, the pics of her and her BABIES in a Gucci ad campaign?
LA- that may have more to do with the parents’ decisions than anything else. Some successful people don’t want their children to have everything handed to them– they want their kids to have work for it like they did, and not just ride on the coattails of the family name.
Warren buffet is the perfect example of this: he is one of the wealthiest people in the world, and yet he doesn’t give his grandchildren a cent, not even for college, I believe, because he wants them to learn the value of hardwork and perseverance. I saw an interview once with his granddaughter, who is the same age as Paris Hilton. Although she came from a wealthier family than Paris, she was working hard to put herself through college. She never had anything handed to her, and obviously became a better person for it… (look where spoiled, family money has gotten Paris).
Will and jada don’t strike me as parents who want their children to have to work hard and build character… They seem more like the Hiltons, who raised their kids to be self serving, entitled, spoiled brats.
Hard work!? Mommy and Daddy Smith had better sit this little one down and explain a few things to her before the real world chews her up and spits her out…
Mindy you got it right. I think that is the problem with celeb kids who don’t know anything but being famous then are dissapointed because no one is as interested in them as they are mom and dad. I do think Willow and her brother have more charisma and looks then say Rumor Willis but why not encourage them to get at least a high school diploma and develop skills outside of their identities as little Smiths??
People are being too hard on her. She’s 9! You all need to lay off.
AWHODAT
Bottomline, dont worry about that child (or any celeb child). i suspect they will all grow up to be more and better at everything they do than you could ever dream of for yourself.

Well of course that would be the case when she has their parents bank account to ” achieve ” whatever she’ll be better than me in . How about you ?
she’s an FCR…
Future Celebrity Rehaber
*fingers crossed*
@Delta Juliet and min: totally agree
Hard work paid off? Try using hard work to get an education since you are NINE YEARS OLD. Omfg
haha wow listen to you people.. so jealous that a little girl has been more successful in 1 day, and all of you combined. i’m sure if you had the connections that will and jada have you’d also let your kids have a taste of success. i’m all for kids expressing themselves and if it’s something healthy and creative it’s not anything bad. instead of picking on a 9 year old girl, you should think of doing something for your kids — which i’m sure they’d love to be famous as well… haha.
@Angelina, i’m shocked and disappointed. Are you saying that the entire world doesn’t know who my sometimes-boyfriend is?!?!?!
The problem with colin, is that while he’s got the chops, A)he is always going to be held up to the standard that is dear ole dad, and NOBODY can compete with Tom and B) he doesn’t use his family connections. Yes he has the last name, but he doesn’t play it up. He gets each role based on his merit.
Loved him on Roswell-how adorable was he then???
I agree with you 100%, Kaiser. “Fame” shouldn’t be the goal. Talented, yes.
The other thing that bugs me, in the same vein, is how much emphasis parents put on how “smart” junior is. Well, smart is nice, but the first goal, I would think, would be that junior is kind, or polite, or compassionate. In other words, I don’t care how many spelling words your kid can memorize; that’s very nice of course, but I’d rather know that you are raising a decent person.
Okay, I’m off my soapbox now.
Helping out will involve whatever twisted version of Scientology of helping is. The Smiths are hardcore scientologists and even worse they have raised their children in the cult.
The thought of Jada being in any rock band makes my eyes roll back into my head. It must’ve been a short “career”.
She’s right up there with Robert Redford, Elizabeth Taylor, et al.
i think she’s cute, don’t know if she’s talented or not, because i’ve never heard/seen her. but will & jada better keep check on their kids, i think. if they don’t instill a real work ethic in them now they will end up as useless/deluded as paris hilton. and nobody wants THAT.
Minnie how exactly do Will and Jada strike you as the type of people who want to hand their kids everything? Where did you get that from? Will and Jada are very grounded and have worked hard to get where they are. I am sure they want to help their kids anyway possible while showing them how to work hard at the same time, it can’t be all Will and Jada, Will and Jada aren’t even the video which has over 6 million views on Youtube, Will and Jada aren’t singing a verse on the sing, Jay-Z isn’t rapping on her song, thats just her and look how many people love and look how much attention its gotten.
@Obvious I always got the feeling that Tom ISN’T helping Colin at all. LOL Maybe Colin doesn’t want the help. I love Colin to, hate he got married and to someone not as cute as me. 😛 Anyway I didn’t watch Roswell but I have seen Colin in movies like The House Bunny and Alone With Her, which is a really good movie and he plays a stalker really well. I don’t think people really even know thats Tom Hanks son in all these movies.
After reading all the comments, I reminded of reading an interview with Will Smith and he says that he felt that he didn’t need to go to college, since he learns new things by reading and doing research and finally by doing things and if he just puts his mind to it, he’ll achieve his goals.
Now I’m not an expert on Scientology, but it seems that this self-confidence is part of their belief system. It’s like how the Cruises allow Suri to become a fashion designer at 4. (he-he)
Personally, I think that they seem a loving family unit however to allow your children this type of freedom and not acknowledging that having famous parents did help, is doing these kids a dis-service.
How could anyone not know that he’s Tom Hanks’ son? He looks just like him, and his voice is very similar as well! I’ve only seen him on an episode or two of the show he’s on now (Good Guys? or something like that). The show is awful, but not because of him. Bad writing and lame plots, but he’s not bad. He should get off that turkey asap and move on to something better.
smug brat. rich parents. enough said
What really is surprising me is that people are assuming she is going to be another LL when she has Will Smith as a parent. He has a good reputation in “Hollyweird” and has always been known as a pretty nice guy, I highly doubt he or Jada would allow her to get all “diva” on them…Let’s give the girl a chance before you tear her down.
Looks to me like mama is trying to relive the glory she DIDN’T have with her awful “Wicked Wisdom” band. So she’s vicariously living through Willow’s “hit” music career. If I had to guess I’d say that mama pushed this career on her and she didn’t choose it herself. And like another poster said, at 9 years old, you don’t really know WHAT you want to do when you grow up. Parents are to guide, not to push.
Warren Buffet does pay for their college at any school they get into. After they are out of school, then they are on their own and that’s the right way to do it for people who can afford it.
I don’t see a lot wrong with this kid. I suspect if she gets out of line at home, they let her know it. I’d take Will Smith over Billy Ray Cyrus as a parent any day.
Colin Hanks was the priest on Mad Men! Woo-hoo, I find his geekiness hot.
To those who say back off picking on this young child–unfortunately, if you put yourself out in the public eye, you have to also accept that people will criticize you. Even if you’re nine. That’s one of the (many) reasons why it would have been more responsible of her parents to hold off until she was older.
I don’t like to rag on kids, so I will just say that I don’t like this family, who seem to think they are better than everyone else, and also, shouldn’t ever have to pay for anything.
Then attack the parents.
Lay off being mean-spirited about children.
“To those who say back off picking on this young child–unfortunately, if you put yourself out in the public eye, you have to also accept that people will criticize you. Even if you’re nine.”
Or we could just act like adults and NOT pick on the child and then she wouldn’t have to *accept* anything.
I wonder if people would make these same comments to her face or would they think that’s wrong? I don’t know…I have no problem with people ragging on her parents but I really wish we could lay off the kid.
Has anyone else seen the clip of the cockatiel dancing to her song? It’s amazing, unlike the track which is downright annoying.
I’m not going to rag on the kid. Her parents are the only reason why we’re having this discussion. I agree with the posters who say that her hard work should be being a kid, developing her gifts and getting a good education. My daughter is also 9 but she has Tourette’s. She’s damn smart and very creative as well and I encourage her in all of her healthy interests. However, coping in
her day to day life is REAL hard work. (Apologies if the comparison is inane.)
Warren Buffet does pay for their college at any school they get into. After they are out of school, then they are on their own and that’s the right way to do it for people who can afford it.
********************
That’s what my parents did with mmy sister Gina and me. We got our tuition paid for. Anything else we were responsible for, and everything after. The only concession is that when I work in LA, I can stay in the guest house, but when I do, I pay rent. Who is to say that Will and Jada won’t do something similar when the kids are older? Like I’ve said, I can’t stand the sdong, it’s not my type of music, but I think she’s a cute kid. I figure that it will end up with her either becoming a success or fizzling out. if she has true talent, she’ll make it. If not, she’ll be a memory when the novelty is over. I hope she makes it. Having your dreams putter out would suck.
I know a lot of people are jealous judging by some of the comments but she seems to have a sensible head on her little shoulders. She’s already proving to be a role model for her peer group. They’ll listen to her before taking any advice from their parents. Nobody is pushing the kid. She’s making her own decisions. Somebody has to be rich, famous and successful. Why not the Smith’s?!!
It must be so rough living in beverly hill and having to go into your home studio with Unvle Jay Z and Auntie Beyonce to make a record thing. BARF.
jealous? No. Don’t ever want to be nine years old again. Ever. I want to think that my life started when I was ten and all the bad stuff ended. And my flirtation with wanting to be famous is pretty much over, unless I can be a famous director.
Oh please…you people wish you were in a position to show your children nepotism or be their role model for that matter. Actually, it just sounds like you wish you were them…don’t hate congratulate, you jealous bunch of nobodies.
J Nice, ur totally spot on, Jealous bunch of nobodies is right! You guys are pathetic, hating on a 9 year old.
Julianne Moore who is gorgeous, smart and talented says she teaches her kids that it is strange to be famous for nothing.
Isn’t it wonderful we do not have Julianne Moore’s underaged children in our faces with their own agents, PR teams, interview press junkets, teams of producers, and musings on their fame which they think has something to do with “hard work?”
She is NINE! That is all of life she knows! How could anyone judge her for that?
I love how alot of you complaining about Willow going into singing skirted over my question of other child actors or other children who have singing careers.
However don’t worry about it. I see what the REAL issue is with alot of you. You can’t throw BS like Will and Jada are rich a holes who hand everything to their children because they have never flashed their wealth in our faces ever. I know for a fact that no body really knows that much about them because they are really a low key family and they have given a few interviews and have never come off as anything but humble in them. I know exactly what alot of your problem is.
and @buenavissta:
I saw the video!! Amazing! I laughed so hard. And that song is so catchy!
What a repulsive little child. She’s been conditioned by the $cienobots, however, so she doesn’t know any better. And she can’t read because she goes to $cienobot school where nothing useful is taught.
http://www.exscientologykids.com/schools.html
Children of $cienbots are treated as though they are adults from the moment they’re born. See Suribot for another example. This kids parents think she’s quite capable of managing all this, at nine. Dumbasses.
She wants to be a star just like daddy. She wants to emulate her parents job just like many kids do.
The thing is, there is a time for anything and patience is a virtue and a paramount point of growth and reason. How can you as a parent accept this from your child when you rush it all and doesn’t teach her : PATIENCE.
She already said that she is very bad at school.
Even if she wants to be a star and doesn’t need to make money because her parents are loaded, would it have been so hard to explain to your children that : school first and maybe if you get good grades, she couldbe allowed during spare times and vaccations some punctual interventions and projects in the industry. Later she could eveuntually take those experiences to launch a career and make it her profession.
I really think something is definitely wrong and bordeline immoral there. Would you allow your child to poursuit his/her dream of a specific job or even drive a car before he or she even enter puberty at this young age. I mean two or there years ago she couldn’t even read. Let her grow first.
I don’t think rewarding a child who admitted being bad at school at 9 years old, who has so much basic things to learn from school by letting her enjoy an adult like career prematurely, entering in full force in adulthood without letting nature do its job in terms of maturity is good for the building of her sense of balance between what you have to do, your even if you don’t like it (school) and what you like to do in due time, afterwards, accomplishing your dreams and make it a reality as you enter adulthood or at least the later years of teenagehood.
Consuming to quick too soon is always wrong.
I cannot support putting a 9-year old person out on the Large Stage of Show, particularly in this case. Don’t care if it’s Disney, or Scientology, or just dumb parents making dumb decisions…..this is a dumb decision. This little Smith can wait until he/she’s an adult to get on the ho stroll. In my as always humble opinion.
This girl is really starting to get to me. She’s oh so cute, but WITH HER MOUTH SHUT.
I hate this “I’m a gift from heaven to mankid” attitude. What hard work is she talking about?
I’m not hating on anyone, just seriously wishing that I could provide my kids with the same financial opportunities.Who wouldn’t want to give their kids the best possible?
Dang! C’mon peeps, she’s only 9yrs old! She hasn’t had the same experiences of the average 9 yr. old girl next door. She’s lived with privilege and ‘things.’ I commend the Smiths on not having a spoiled little 9yr. old dressing like a mini Playboy bunny and singing songs that little girls shouldn’t sing. Pump the brakes on the criticism, it could be much worse.
I’m hardly a “nobody.” No one is a “nobody.” Everyone matters to someone.
Ugliness apparently goes both ways. It’s OK to say ugly things to people who are “nobodies” but not to question a celebrity. Damn, some of you people are a little scary, the lengths to which you will go to defend people you don’t even know against the mere opinions of others.
re: Jada Smith – she’s actually a very cool person. Last year I did some directorial interning on “Hawthorne” and I found her to be a delightful woman who adored her kids. She certainly didn’t appear to be the over indulgent sort of mom.
the video sickened me, not only because the music is so atrocious, but they way she is made up and shot is definitely very suggestive and wayyyy to grown up for a NINE year old. I have a nine year old and her hard work paid off in her having the best report card in her class and getting to go Silver Spoonz for frozen yoghurt with her girlz. I think it so selfish of these people to rob their kids of a normal childhood and the chance of escaping the farce that is Hollywood. soo sad.
@Liana: You said it so perfectly in your earlier post, that Willow will either make it or ‘her dream will fizzle out’.
Thing is: Nothing is supposed to fizzle out on that scale for a 9/10/11 year old.
Parents should feel too protective about their kids to ever let this happen.
This makes me sick. She shouldn’t be famous, she shouldn’t be a fashion plate, she SHOULD be a little girl OUT of the public eye.
@ Angelina– your comments always make me smile…do you subscribe to Kneepads by chance? LOL. Will and jada with no “crazy bs”…hahahahahahahahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHha
i suppose what everyone is up in arms about it is the idea that a 9 year old child is saying she worked “really hard” when in actuality recording a song that you didn’t write, didn’t produce, didn’t mix, master or organize is really really easy.
you show up in a studio sing it a few times.
this kid hasn’t done any work at all, and its sad, but at the same time very typical of north american culture.
oh well.
i CAN NOT TAKE MORE THAN 3 SECONDS OF “I SWING MY HAIR…” ON TV, KIDS REALLY LIKE THAT CRAP???
Each time I see the featured pic (with the skunk on her head) I want to smack the kid. Looks like a little smug brat, ala Suri. I can’t stomach conceited and self-satisfied children, whether they’re the spawn of the Hollywood elite, or not.
she is totally cute, the song is cute and blah blah blah… but in all seriouness, a 9-year old talking about “express her individuality”, “help people with her message”??? It just sounds so fake and kind of ridiculous.
if you could only listen to one: who would you rather listen to…willow smith or the beatles?
exactly.
This is so stupid. Willow you are 9 years old and what, you decided on Monday you wanted to be a singer and by Sunday you had a record deal? Do you really think that ‘all your hard work’ did that? Or maybe the fact that your parents are celebrities and can get you in to see whom ever is needed to launch your ‘career’.
You are mediocre at best and if your parents weren’t who they are you would currently be sitting in your backyard playing with barbies.
I hope America wakes up and stops spoon feeding the celebrebabies because it should be important to PROVE that you are talented instead of being able to ride in on your parents coat tail.
