We all loved Willow Smith's 'Whip My Hair' whether we like to admit it or not, but will we like her new single '21st Century Girl'? I'm not going to lie, I'm a huge fan! She's way too cute to hate, she has amazing dance moves, and let's face it, we all (guys included) wish we were that cool when we were ten! But is the ideal of a '21st century girl' or guy really ten years old? Either way, the lyrics to her latest single are just as whimsical and harmless as her last hit - but what more can we expect? Is it possible to write an appropriate song for a 10 year old without it being as ridiculous as Rebecca Black's 'Friday'? Thank goodness Willow has a decent record label, but still, I do have to laugh when Willow sings "21st century girl, I do what I like..." - I'm glad you're embracing feminism at your tender age Willow, but do you really do what you like, or do you still have a bed time? As she struts through the desert she professes "I'm the kind of chick who knocks you off your feet," but Willow darling, do you really know what 'kind of chick' you are? I'm double her age and I have no clue what 'kind of chick' I am yet. I'm not jealous, (although I know a handful of people who couldn't be more envious that young stars such as Willow, Bieber and Dakota are earning millions before their 18th birthdays), but as we're faced with the outcome of young successes such as Mary-Kate and Ashley, Drew Barrymore, Britney Spears, Macaulay Culkin and Lindsay Lohan, who's to say that Willow isn't the next in line? In the mean time though, all we can do is hope that Will and Jada keep a very close eye on their beautiful daughter.
P.s. Regardless of age, Willow is definitely the next style and hair icon!
