Willow Smith's X Factor USA performance

Posted by 11 November 2011 15:00

Last night’s US X Factor results show went off with a blast last night. Not only did UK pop queen Jessie J perform butl’il Willow Smith also joined her.

We love Jessie J, we really do, the voice, the body, the hair. We could go on. And yes her performance was great, the bandage outfit was brilliant, the hair was amazing (albeit slightly K-Pez inspired) but what we can’t stop gawping at and the performance that is making us go O-to-the-MG is most definitely that pint-sized twiglet in the shape of Willow Smith who actually floored us with her new single Fireball ft. NickiMinaj.
 
A gutsy, raging, explosion of a performance which would make any fully grown adult XF contestant quiver in their sparkly boots. And before you hate on her outfit or her hairstyle or maybe the slight squeak in her voice, remember one thing. This girl is 11-years-old.
 
Whilst you were playing kiss chase and fraping your mates in year six, she’s sold 2 million singles worldwide, her debut went double platinum, she has her own stylist and is now performing on one of the biggest shows in the US. With one of the most ‘of the moment’ rappers Nicki Minaj.

That’s it really. We have no more words. This is literally half a rant and half unadulterated pure WOW. The girl is 11.
 
SHE IS 11.
 
And her dad is Will Smith.
 
Oh Gawd.

    She wipes the floor with Bieber & those talentless Disney kids who dress inappropriately to get attention e.g. Selena Gomez. I think she's very gutsy to sing live too - something performers 10-20 years older than her don't do. I'd rather her as a role model for my daughter.

    I'm glad the stylists and choreographers remembered her age and didn't dress her like a trainee lap dancer and have her grinding away! I don't like the song, but I can appreciate how good a performer she is.
