Managing Mom

Willow’s budding career as a singer has been with the help of her mom and manager Jada. “It’s interesting when you put your children out in front of the world. You just hope and pray that people will appreciate them as much as you do,” Jada said in a recent interview.

I am Not My Hair

Jada approved when Willow wanted to wear a half-shaven hairstyle, but people accused her look of being “too grown.” Willow’s stylist spoke out saying, “If your child is a forward-thinker, you should guide her instead of smothering her.”

Stay Grounded
