Willow Smith just released her '21st Century Girl' single, and there is no sign of the young star slowing down.

Set to start her European tour with Justin Bieber this weekend, and on the heels of co-hosting 'Oprah Winfrey Show,' the 10-year-old daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith dropped this behind the scenes look of the video shoot for '21st Century Girl.' The clip takes us on set and offers up some first-hand insight on the video's concept.

"It's about girls who are being themselves," Willow explains. "They are walking toward their goal. They are trying to be the best because they know they can do it."

Willow Smith is promising her debut album will be coming "very soon," and along with '21st Century Girl' and her No. 1 hit, 'Whip My Hair,' it is expected to feature at least one song with her dad's old partner in crime, DJ Jazzy Jeff.


Watch the behind the scenes look of the '21st Century Girl' video.

I admire Will and Jada both. But I too have a 10 year old daughter and for the life of me, I just couldn't send my daughter off touring, no matter how talented she happened to be. Willow has only been on the planet for ten years, my gosh, what's the rush. I believe young spirits need to be nurtured at home, not in an arena. Any way, I wish the Smith family all the best.

Why don't the Smiths do what other parents do with non talented kids, just put them in beauty pagents.

This annoying child was on the Oprah Winfrey show as co-host for children who actually were talented. Willow is very homely and extremely annoying. She's no "cute" child star. Forget touring and go to school and behave appropriately.

I couldn't agree more. What a self-absorbed brat who had the nerve to address Oprah as "girl..."
