Based on her budding music career, it's already been proven that Willow Smith has incredibly understanding parents -- but that doesn't mean Will Smith's daughter can't pretend, right?

In an interview with Yahoo! Music, the now 10-year-old (yes, she's already getting older) said a cover of DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's biggest hit might be in her future.

"Um, there's a possibility. There's a possibility that I will," Willow said when asked about a "Parent Just Don't Understand" remake. "It's a really great song," she added.

Quote of the Day: Jay-Z Didn’t Want We Are the World Remake

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Collaborations, Gossip, Covers,

“I know everybody is gonna take this wrong: We Are the World, I love it, and I understand the point and think it’s great. But I think ‘We Are the World’ is like [Michael Jackson’s] ‘Thriller’ to me. I don’t ever wanna see it touched. I’m a fan of music. I know the plight and everything that’s going on in Haiti. I applaud the efforts: [Millions have been raised] through text [donations] to Haiti. So I appreciate the efforts and everything, but ‘We are the World’ is [musically] untouchable like ‘Thriller’ is untouchable. Some things are just untouchable. It was a valiant effort, but for me, it’s gonna be untouchable.”
