Child Singer Willow Smith Rocks Wild Hair in New Video

Parents of preteen daughters are forewarned. Ponytails and pigtails are now out of style. Willow Smith, the 9-year-old fashionista and daughter of superstars Will Smith and Jada Pinket Smith, has spoken by way of her debut music video, "Whip My Hair."

The 3-minute video ode to new millennium coiffures finds the adorable media-friendly child star adopting a series of colorful, funky creations sure to spark a youth hair revolution.
The infectious song with a hip-hop, pop dance sound is comparable to Rihanna's music without the adult themes. "Whip My Hair" isn't sappy Disney pop that only appeals to tweens. It has already reached Number 17 on "Billboard"'s R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
Amid throngs of dancing kids in the video, Willow shines as the clear breakout star. The clip is a smash and she pulls it off without need for cameo appearances from her famous parents.
In the video, Willow whips her hair back and forth so vigorously and frequently that even viewers feel neck cramps after watching. Her label, Jay-Z's Roc Nation in partnership with Columbia, might want to distribute neck braces as a promotional item.

 Queen Of Hearts - Some people wear their hearts on their sleeves, but that's so 2000. Little Miss Willow sports a custom heart-shaped tiara weaved out of hair extensions.

 Paint Brush Braids - Wouldn't it be cool if every girl could paint her room by dipping her braids in pastel colored paint and whipping her hair "so hard"? Of course it would. But this only happens in a fictitious music video girls. Don't get excited or try this at home.

 Peacock Mohawk - The only thing that could make a Mohawk cooler is streaks of color. Done. Willow highlights her mane with patches of green and burgundy.

 Cotton Doodle Doo -The junior Smith's most playful style looks edible and inspired by ‘70s funk master George Clinton.
