Willow Smith was born to Academy Award winner Will Smith and actress and musician Jada Pinkett-Smith, and she has spent her entire childhood in the spotlight.

Many may remember her 2010 Һit song “WҺip My Hair,” but the singer now describes the time she spent touring with Justin Bieber when she was just 10 years old as “rough,” even though they are now 14 years later and their relationship is “better than ever.”

According to the artist, “I think everyone goes through that friction with their parents when they’re growing up.” This was stated to Dazed magazine. “But when it really changed for me was realizing that my parents are human beings, just like me, and they’re afraid and confused, and sometimes they don’t know the answers.”

“I adore my parents unconditionally. I’d sacrifice everything for them,” she continued.

When Willow was a tween, she said that her father held her to a high professional level, which he has later acknowledged he regrets. As a result of the pressure, Willow chose to chop off her hair at the age of eleven, what she refers to as the “dark night of her soul”.

“I didn’t know how to express what I was going through,” she said, noting that she “didn’t love my life” and that she “never wаnted anyone to think I was ungrateful.”

She sadly decided to self-harm as a means of “letting those emotions come out in a way where I wasn’t opening myself up to judgment from other people” as a result of her decision to keep her feelings to herself.

The 24-year-old was handed a devastating setback when Childish Gambino decided to postpone his world tour, of which Willow was the support act, in order to concentrate on his “physical health.” This is when the new interview was conducted.

The musician, real nаme Donald Glover, shared a statement on X and wrote: “Hey everyone. Regretfully, I must cancel the remainder of the North American trip in order to dedicate a few weeks to tending to my physical well-being.”

“Hold onto your tickets,” he continued. When the dates are rescheduled for the next events in North America, ALL tickets will be honored.”

Willow’s father, Will, was formerly known as the Fresh Prince, and her mother, Jada, was the lead vocalist of the nu metal band Wicked Wisdom.

Jaden, her brother, is also an artist, but Willow made history earlier in 2024 when one of their songs was streamed more over a billiоn times.
