American singer and songwriter is one of many celebs who have been labeled a “Nepo Baby” because of her famous parents.
In a recent interview with Allure, the “Meet Me At Our Spot” star said the label has only made her work harder. She believes she would still be a weirdo and a crazy thinker with or without her famous parents, because for her, success goes beyond having famous parents.
Willow also spoke about worrying that she’s not good enough.
“I’m wrongly internalizing the negativity from the outside. Even if my parents weren’t who they were, I would still be a weirdo and a cr*zy thinker.”
She also revealed that nowadays, she doesn’t feel she needs to prove anything to anyone. However, she acknowledges her privilege, but being a Black woman doesn’t change much for her.
“Being Black in America, even with privilege, which I’m never going to deny that I have, you’re still Black. I love being Black… People would look at me and [say] , ‘Okay, well, her parents are this and this and that, but she still is like me. She still has brown skin.’ And we all know that that doesn’t exempt you from anything, and that’s a place of connection.”
