The famous actor and singer Will Smith was not only able to make a career in Hollywood, but he is also an excellent family man. For 17 years, he has been faithful to his wife Jada, with whom they raise 2 children - Willow and Jaden. From his first marriage, the actor has another son - Willard, with whom, despite the break with his mother, he also maintains a warm relationship. But a special place in his life is occupied by the daughter of Willow. Like any other father, he is proud of her and seeks to help in all endeavors. Today, Will Smith's daughter acts in films, performs songs and collaborates as a model with leading fashion houses.
Films with her participation
For the first time in the movie, Willow Smith starred with her father. It was the film "I Am A Legend", released in 2007. True, the role was episodic, and she practically did not have to play. As in life, according to the scenario, she was the daughter of the protagonist. However, precisely for this role, many remembered the daughter of Will Smith. A wonderful girl talking about butterflies could not help but like. Perhaps her father’s presence on the court helped her to play so well.
A year later, another film will be released with Willow's participation, "Kit Kittredge: The Enigma of an American Girl." This is a real family movie in which all the action takes place during the
Great Depression. In this film, the daughter of Will Smith, though not the main role, is no longer episodic. She plays the girlfriend of the main character, and many viewers and critics noted the good play of the young actress. For her, Willow received her first award.
In the same year, Willow Smith took part in another major project - the cartoon "Madagascar 2". In the American version, the voice of the hippo Gloria in childhood belongs to her. Since 2009, Willow has also starred in the popular sitcom Tru Jackson on Nickelodeon.
Passion for music
But today, Will Smith's daughter left the career of an actress and seriously took up music. Her first single, Whip My Hair, released in 2010, topped many American charts. The song itself and the video are very straightforward, but you need to understand that the girl at that time was not even 10 years old. At the same time, Will Smith's daughter signs a contract with the record company Roc Nation and renowned producer Jay Z.
Over the past 4 years, a total of 11 singles have been released, including 3 of them recorded with brother Jaden. However, not all of them were accepted and understood by the audience and fans. So, the songs of I am Me and Summer Fling were scolded for texts too mature for such a young girl. And the clips shot in their support also seemed too frank to many. But Willow herself sees nothing reprehensible in them.
In 2012, it was planned to release the first album of the singer. It was even reported its working name Knees and Elbows, but so far the release dates have been postponed indefinitely. But a year later, Willow began working in a duet with DJ Fabrega, and he was called Melodic Chaotic. In total, the group at the moment managed to record several songs and shoot one clip. There is no talk about the album either. But many critics predict Will Smith's daughter a brilliant career as a singer.
Shooting for magazines
But not only music and cinema are interested in the daughter of Will Smith. The name of this girl often appears not only in tabloids, but also in fashion magazines. Having the opportunity to dress with the best designers, Willow seeks to stand out from the crowd, like any teenager. Her outfits and images are distinguished by her inherent style. Well-known designers could not miss it. In addition, the star name always attracts ordinary buyers.
At the moment, the most famous of her work as a model was a joint photo shoot with designer Karl Lagerfeld. Despite the crazy age difference (at that time Willow was 13, and Karl was over 80), the shooting was very successful. Both noted that they were comfortable enough to work together. Even critics admitted that Willow in the photographs looks great. She noticeably matured and prettier.
Although previously many criticized the young actress and singer for her appearance. The daughter of Will Smith has repeatedly shocked the audience with her outfits. Most likely, this should be attributed to Willow's rebellious age, as well as to the fact that her parents gave her complete freedom in choosing their image. Perhaps that is why 2 years ago she shaved her head, and in 2014 dyed her hair blonde.
Besides
The daughter of Will Smith, whose photos are also taken by the paparazzi, is often presented in the media as a spoiled child of the "star daddy". In part, of course, this is so. With the capabilities and means, it is difficult to avoid this. However, the girl is very responsible for everything she does. Cinema, music or shooting for a fashion magazine is not just a hobby, but painstaking work. In addition, Willow, despite his young age, participates in charity. She is the Goodwill Ambassador for the Ptoject Zambia campaign, held in partnership with Hasbro. The action aims to draw attention to HIV-infected children in Africa.
Instead of a conclusion
Many people wonder if star children would be so successful if not for their famous parents? Of course, on the one hand, this helps to make a career, but on the other, they need to prove that they are also worth something. There are many examples when children became even more popular than their mothers and fathers. Michael Douglas, Angelina Jolie and Enrique Eglesias are also stellar children. It is possible that in the near future they will be interested, not by the name of the daughter of Will Smith, but by the name of her father.
