Willow Smith Opens Up About Why She Hates Being Famous: “People Feel Like They Have Some Sort Of Entitlement To Know What’s Going On”

It looks as though #WillowSmith doesn’t enjoy being famous, Roommates! When asked what it was like to be famous, she replied to be completely and utterly honest, its absolutely terrible.

Growing up and trying to figure out your lifewhile people feel like they have some sort of entitlement to know whats going on, is absolutely, excruciatingly terrible and the only way to get over it, is to go into it, the child star said.

Having superstar parents like #WillSmith and #JadaPinkettSmith can make privacy difficult to attain as you can imagine and Willow went on to explain how public scrutiny has affected her life as well as the lives of other kids like her. She reveals that it’s caused her depression.

You cant change your face. You cant change your parents. You cant change any of those things. So I feel like most kids like me end up going down a spiral of depression, and the world is sitting there looking at them through their phones; laughing and making jokes and making memes at the crippling effect that this lifestyle has on the psyche, the Whip My Hair singer continued.

The only way to overcome this is to either embrace it or shut out the world completely, according to Smith. When youre born into it, there are two choices that you have; Im either going to try to go into it completely and help from the inside, orIm really going to take myself completely out of the eye of society. Theres really no in-between, she added.

What are your thoughts, Roommates?
