Justin Bieber And Jaden Smith Prank Willow Smith On Stage!

Singer Willow Smith recently found out firsthand how Justin Bieber likes to prank while opening for Bieber on tour.
People magazine reported that Bieber, his manager Scooter Braun and "swagger coach" Ryan Good surprised Smith onstage during a performance in Manchester, England. They came out wearing neon-colored make up and hair extensions and danced onstage while Smith sang her hit song "Whip My Hair."
Bieber, who refers to Smith as his "little sis," pulled out a cowbell and banged on it as Smith's older brother Jaden Smith emerged and whipped his hair next to her.
The Huffington Post said their timing was a bit off as they missed the chorus, the time of most energy in the song.
Smith, according to PopEater , didn't miss a beat and just continued with her song. That didn't mean she would forget it.
My big brother's Justin and Jaden pranked me on stage tonight … #payback!!!" Smith posted to her Twitter page.
"They got me, but it is not over; revenge is sweet and is served on a cold dish," PopWatch reported she said in a video diary of the prank.
Smith, 10, is the daughter of actor Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith. She made her acting debut in the movie "I Am Legend," which also featured her father as the star.
She launched her music career in 2010.
As far as her revenge on Bieber, it may have to be on another tour. She posted on Facebook that she was about to have her last sound check and last show.
"Thank you for taking such great care of me," she posted. "Well, I am going to be home wishing on was on tour forever!"

Willow Smith To Remake One of Daddy’s Hit Songs?!


Reportedly, the ‘Whip My Hair’! kid star Willow Smith, daughter of celebrity, hip hop icon Will Smith and actress Jada Pinkett Smith, is thinking about possibly remaking one of her dad’s hip hop songs.

Which one of her dad’s hit songs is Willow Smith thinking about remaking?
Well many have forgotten or simply don’t know that Will Smith – the mega actor they know and love — even started out as MC of the hip-hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince.
Will Smith had multiple hit songs such as “Parents Just Don’t Understand” and “Summertime” and it seems his daughter thinks highly of one in particular.
Hmmm. Let’s see, she’s a kid and she has parents — that’s right — “Parents Just Don’t Understand.”
Willow told Yahoo! Music she is thinking about remaking her dad Will Smith’s 1988 hit song “Parents Just Don’t Understand” from off DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince’s second studio album, “He’s the DJ, I’m the Rapper.”
Willow Smith also revealed what it was like meeting and working with another hip hop great — Jay-Z.
Willow claims she was nervous at first but Jay-Z allowed her to express herself and instead of only criticizing her, he helped her to make her ideas better.
Along with this news, Willow also revealed a possible Smith family collaboration, which is reportedly already in the works.

Willow Smith admits she is behind classmates due to music career

Willow Smith is not unlike many ten-year-old children in their admission that they would rather do what they consider to be fun instead of their schoolwork.
But the young singer is unlike other children in her superstar parents Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith allowing her to focus more on her music than her schoolwork.
In an interview with the U.K.’s Daily Record, Willow spoke about her runway hit “Whip My Hair,” and her life on the road.
“I never really get to go to school because I am always on tour, or with my father,” Willow said. “There is a tutor most of the time, but usually I am working so I never get to do the lessons. The worst thing about math is all the kids are ahead of me because they go to school.”
Willow signed to Jay-Z’s record label Roc Nation earlier this year. She tells the Record she was inspired by her parents to get into a music career.
“I was four years old when I recorded a song with daddy and only said a couple of words, and I thought, ‘This is cool,’” she said. “I would go with my mom on tour and look her and love what she did. I thought, ‘Maybe I should do that.’ So I did. I’m going to make songs to inspire people.”
Willow also added that she would like to be a “baby Rihanna.”
Willow’s older brother Jayden is also a recent breakout star, starring in this year’s hit film “The Karate Kid.”
