Now she's stepping behind the lens! Willow Smith tinkers with point and shoot camera

She's often seen on the opposite end of the lens but it seems Willow Smith is interested in getting behind it.
The 12-year-old singer - and daughter to Will and Jada Pinkett Smith - was spotted in Miami Beach on Thursday examining a point and shoot camera.
It seemed she was only interested in taking pictures of herself, however, testing the device by pointing the lens in her direction.

Dressed in an oversized red plaid shirt riddled with bleach stains, Willow seemed to be going for a grunge look.

The young star also wore ripped denim shorts, combat boots and a T-shirt reading: 'Puglife' - with a picture of a pup.

 

Not even a teenager until next October, Willow is already leading quite the jet set life.

She was seen with her mother, actress Jada, and older brother Jaden at Los Angeles International Airport earlier this week after enjoying some downtime in Kauai, Hawaii.

Willow wore the same stained shirt for her travel day, appearing to have jet to Miami shortly after.

She wore her swept back off her face, but in the sun on Thursday appeared to be in favour of a spiked style, with blonde highlights.

Late last month, Jada  challenged critics taking aim at her daughter Willow's decision to shave her head.

The actress has taken to Facebook to address catty remarks and needless observations from people asking why she allowed her 12-year-old to chop her hair off earlier this year.

In an empowering message entitled 'Letter to a friend', she writes: 'Willow cut her hair because her beauty, her value, her worth is not measured by the length of her hair.'

New toy? Willow seemed to be a little unfamiliar with the camera

'The question why I would LET Willow cut her hair. First the LET must be challenged. This is a world where women,girls are constantly reminded that they don't belong to themselves; that their bodies are not their own, nor their power or self determination.

'I made a promise to endow my little girl with the power to always know that her body, spirit and her mind are HER domain. Willow cut her hair because her beauty, her value, her worth is not measured by the length of her hair.

Signed, J, the letter, dated November 21, came amid harsh criticism for Willow, whose often seeing experimenting with her hair.

After shaving her head back in February Willow had started to let her hair grow back. Last month, she showcased a long braided style, only to revert to a cropped look over Thanksgiving with her family.
Willow hasn't just experimented with the cut of her hair, in the past she has also dyed it a number of bold hues, most famously during the release of her 2010 hit Whip My Hair.
