    Jaden recorded that song because he had to to promote the movie I think. Next to that, Jaden is a lil older than Willow, those years make quite a diffrence when it comes to judgement. But I agree with you, no need to wish her bad things, I wish her all the good in the world.

    You're pretty much illustrating the point I was making about double standards. Jaden started training for and filming KK (in which he had a staring role) when he was 10 almost 11, a year older than Willow is now. Months after the film came out on dvd he was still(and might still be) touring with JB, either way you look at it, they're all child performers. One could argue that at 10/11 Jaden had no business carrying a movie because of his 'judgement'. We'll have to go the "agree to disagree" route as well b/c I don't think I ten year old child can't have a style or opinion of their own, that's honestly one of the most bizarre things i've heard in a long time. Their parents are there to guide them and make sure they don't get overwhelmed, and so far they seem to be doing fine, time will tell best.

    anyway ONTDhas scans of the EW Entertainers of the Year the kids are featured

    I really don't agree with most of the stuff going on here. Will and Jada seem to be very serious about good parenting and the business. I hasn't crossed my mind that Willow would go bad due to the business. Sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. Sometime fame causes it. Will and Jada look like great parents and they've both been famous for decades. I also don't see her as a gimmick at all. She's doing her thing and her parents are staying the shadows. They aren't taking center stage...they are staying at the sidelines. I think they found a very good formula of mixing the current day sound with quality. The song is catchy and is getting support by TV and radio (that is also supporting untalented people who are having success with awful music). Jada has always had style. Jada has always had a booming voice. Willow has inherited that. To say say's being dressed up and pushed out there without talent to back it up is ridiculous. The song may be polished in the studio, but she is singing live in all or most of the performances I've seen online. The song isn't auto-tune or anything. I think she's just using the bold voice she got from her mama.

    I find it strange that some people who support today's crappy popular music are being more critical of Willow then of garbage they support. Willow is more talented and has more style than over half of the urban artists who are having big success at the moment.

    ITA AJ. And the fact that Jaden recorded a song, shot a video and toured the country with Justin Bieber, (and didn't get nearly as much backlash) just makes me think a lot of the criticism toward Willow is filled with double standards. It's one thing to say she can't sing or you don't like her song but the amount of vitriol against her (not necessarily in this forum) makes me shake my head sometimes.

    Raven Symone and Jackie Evancho said to tell you guys hi, lol.
    Hmm, odd is not a word I would use, though I do understand the concern people have for her age. I think it was on Access Hollywood she was asked if she was ready to do this forever, and she said "we'll see how it goes" so it seems like she's not limiting herself to this or basing her whole life on it. I guess I just don't worry about their kids being in the business because of the type of people/parents Will and Jada seem to be.

    Tim, why don't u think she sung live? Her vocals sound separate from the instrumental and backing vocals to me? Her performances was good and her interview was great. She's loaded with so much personality. Plus u see traces of her parents in her. I'm glad to see her doing well with the single. I just hope this doesn't have pops getting lazy and letting her take over the music reigns of the family.

    I agree she def. sang live (with back up singers, they were up in the rafters)

    From the way the track was layed (overlapping vocals) she can't sing it all on her own in a live performance.

    I thought it was good for someone her age she has stage presence and energy, if she keeps at it she'll only get better.

    Willow!

    Your new song "Whip My Hair" is making big news in America right now! I just want to wish my daughter Willow (ahem Will and Jada, I am adopting her) a big congratulations on your big success. I heard you are signed to Roc Nation, Jay-Z's music label. I met Jay-Z a few months ago in LA and he's a good guy. You and your brother Jaden have star quality and I know you two are going to be HUGE. Will and Jada, watch out! I miss you all.

    Love, Jackie Smith

    I love Hawthorne. IMO it's improved a lot in season 2, and it's the only drama on tv right now with a AA woman in the lead not to mention executive producing. I'm happy for Jada, she puts a lot into her family so it's nice she has something for herself and I love that she's back on tv.

    lmao you're killing me, you sound like a distraught hairdresser. Guess what that was a wig during the KK tour too, lol.
    Her Hawthorne hair is real, you'll be happy to know it's probably all still under there somewhere.
