Willow Smith apparently gets tongue ring
The daughter of Hollywood power-couple Will and Jada Smith, Willow was likely given more than most re-teen girls.
Smith, who made a name for herself with her 2010 smash “Whip My Hair,” was recently seen, via Instagram, with a new… development. The 11 year old posted a photo of her seemingly with a tongue ring, examiner reported.
In a May interview with Parade Magazine, Will Smith said that he and his wife work to not impose their views on what she does with her body.
"We let Willow cut her hair. When you have a little girl, it's like how can you teach her that you're in control of her body? If I teach her that I'm in charge of whether or not she can touch her hair, she's going to replace me with some other man when she goes out in the world. She can't cut my hair but that's her hair. She has got to have command of her body,” Smith said.
“So when she goes out into the world, she's going out with a command that is hers. She is used to making those decisions herself. We try to keep giving them those decisions until they can hold the full weight of their lives,” he said.
