Whip it up: The ten-year-old daughter of Hollywood royalty Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith has been in front of the cameras again - this time causing a stir on the set of her new music video in Down Town Los Angeles


There's just no stopping pint-sized music phenomenon Willow Smith.

The ten-year-old daughter of Hollywood royalty Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith has been in front of the cameras again - this time causing a stir on the set of her new music video for her latest single 21st Century Girl.

The super-confident youngster was strutting her stuff on the brightly coloured set under the watchful gaze of her famous parents as well as film-star brother, Jaden.


Confident: The confident ten-year-old looks as though she has got her dance routine off to a tee as she struts her stuff on set dressed in eye-popping brights and of course, her trademark swishing hair


Her new single will follow hot on the heels of her smash hit Whip My Hair. And if these pictures are anything to go by, the video will be every bit as energetic as her debut.

Dressed in eye-popping yellows and reds and even a pair of on-trend leopard print leggings, Willow looks every bit the seasoned professional as she works her way through various high-energy dance routines.

But in true Smith family style, the shoot was also an opportunity for some bonding time. As brother Jaden got to grips with life behind a lens filming his younger sibling, proud parents Will and Jada could be seen sharing a tender hug.

Even movie veteran Jackie Chan made an appearance on set and was seen chatting to Willow's film-star brother Jaden.

On trend: Willow has become something of a fashion icon and has developed her own personal sense of style, as she displays here in this eye-catching ensemble


Energetic: 'I get my flow from my daddy, my singing ability from mommy, and the camera stuff from both' says the self-possessed performer who is already signed to Jay-Z's record label


Family affair: Willow was joined on set by her film-star brother Jaden who looked like he was taking a turn behind the lens as he filmed his famous sister


It looks as though it's going to be a busy year for the youngster.

Last week it was revealed that she is said to be in talks to star in a big screen remake of 1980's musical Annie.

The 10-year-old singer's father - movie heavyweight Will Smith - is 'exploring with Sony the potential' for the film, according to industry magazine, Variety.

Keeping it in the family, the Men In Black would produce the movie through his Overbrook Entertainment production company.

Famous friends: Even movie legend Jackie Chan popped down to see Willow at workd. Her brother Jaden Smith became close to the martial arts legend when the filmed the Karate Kid together. Not sure about the teddy bear though!


Smile! The Smith family looked like they were enjoying their time on set as they watched Willow perform her energetic dance routines. And it looks set to be a busy year for the family with Will Smith currently in talks with Sony bosses for Willow to star in a remake of musical Annie


Details are still in the beginning stages, but rapper Jay-Z, who worked with Willow on her hit Whip My Hair, is also said to be in talks to collaborate on the music.

Of course, Jay-Z famously sampled Annie's most famous song in one of his biggest hits, Hard Knock Life and worked with Willow on her Whip My Hair.

Project spokespeople were tight-lipped about whether the film would be a contemporary version and whether it will include any original songs.

Willow is no stranger to the movies though. She had a small part playing dad Will Smith's daughter in I Am Legend.
