Not bad for a 10-year-old, right?
So, what else is there to know about this talented young star?
Whatreallymakes her tick and inspires her in the biggest ways?
Read on to find out the untold truth of Willow Smith.
“The only way to get over it, is to go into it.”
She added that you might’t change your face or your parents, so you’re pretty much stuck.
“That’s so insane,” she recalled in an interview withVulture.
“That was a crazy night, I remember it.
“But then I didn’t care,” she continued.
“I really could not have cared less.
That was such a transformational point for me.”
Well, Smith opened up about it on an episode of “Red Table Talk.”
She admitted that her dream of being a musician had spiraled out of her control.
“But I didn’t really understand what my dream entailed.”
And, really, how could she when she was just a kid?
“It was mostly daddy because he was so harsh at certain times.”
“And I was like, ‘I’m not gonna do that.’
And after all of that kinda settled down …
I was plunged into this black hole, and I was cutting myself.”
“[I] totally lost my sanity for a moment there,” she continued.
She continued, saying, “It’s a real thing, you’re not alone.
She was a rock star.
She was a warrior and a nurturer all in one.”
Yes, Pinkett Smith was the total rock star that led Smith to believe she too could be one.
Smith has been very open about the fact that she’s both bisexual and polyamorous.
In fact, she finds other options personally repressive.
“I feel like I could be polyfidelitous with those two people.”
“I focus a lot on the emotional connection,” she continued.
But Willow Smith has a different perspective.
She sees the people in her cohort as heightened in several ways.
That really is a lot to process.
“It’s not just the phones,” she continued.
“The phones are just a tool.
The phones just heighten what was already happening.”
According to Smith, she and Jaden are really as close as they seem in photographs.
“I know what he’s thinking at all times, and he knows what I’m thinking.
We’re not identical twins, but it feels like that in a lot of ways.”
“They need their time apart to get to realize themselves and realize who they are.”
Even today, many women are facing repercussions for donning their natural hair.
Willow Smith is keenly aware of the issues that come with wearing her hair naturally.
As such, she wears her hair with great pride.
“We’re best friends.
I love my locs and they love me,” she revealed in an interview withThe Cut.
“I’m just really calm about it now.
“Having the locs is just amazing,” she continued.
“I can go about my life now and not worry about it.”
As it turns out, yes.
“And I would have not shown my face.”
That certainly would have allowed her a little more privacy, for sure.
“I probably wouldn’t have made music at first,” she continued.
This is something that Willow Smith is very familiar with.
“Like, you’re able to actually be a voice,” she continued.
And she’s definitely not here for it!
“I’m gonna need to block out time in my life.”
As for exactly when that will happen, it’s unclear.
Smith is occupied with her first love for the foreseeable future.
“Right now, I’m going HAM on my music,” she continued.
“Black women are in such a unique position, especially right now,” she continued.
“We’ve always been in the unique position, but especially right now in the political climate.
For Smith, there’s nothing else.
It’s not superficial in the least, either, as Smith views fashion as a form of art.
She added that she thinks more and more young people are becoming aware of this notion, too.
That doesn’t mean Smith isn’t delighted to be a part of the industry though far from it.
“Like, how am I a Chanel ambassador?
It is so beautiful.”
And so are you, Willow!
“I think it gives a lot of people joy, and it gives him joy.
I love that he’s doing it.”
“He’s a funny dude and I’m so grateful to be his offspring,” she continued.
“He’s definitely … silly.
But I love it I love the silly.”
And so do his millions of followers.
He contributed a few songs, including the single “Transparent Soul.”
It sounds like who you are, every time I’ve met you or I’ve been around you.
Smith confessed she was surprised that Barker would want to work with her on any music project.
“I didn’t even think for a second that you were going to be on ‘Transparent Soul.’
That was kind of like a far-fetched fever dream for me,” she said.
It turned out to be a harmonious partnership.
She continued, saying, “The universe is infinite, and we know this scientifically.
“I’ve always been into everything and anything extraterrestrial,” she said.
“I’ve also been into goddesses throughout history, mythology, and religion representations of the divine feminine.
Bringing those two things together, it just felt so perfect for me.”
