LONDON:

Will Smith’s son Jaden made his acting debut as his son in The Pursuit of Happyness last year - revealed his daughter Willow wants to be as famous as hotel heiress Paris Hilton so he gave her a part in his new movie I Am Legend.

Smith said, “Willow has a drive. She has energy and she just connects to human emotion. I think a big part was probably seeing Jaden after The Pursuit of Happyness. She saw what Jaden did, and she was like, ‘I want that. Jaden is Johnny Depp. He just wants to do good work. He loves acting, he just wants to make good movies. And Willow is Paris Hilton, she wants to be on TV.”

Willow showed gritty determination when she worked in freezing temperatures for the sci-fi thriller. Smith added to People magazine, “Willow was out there and she has her stuff on and she’s cold and she’s getting a little irritable. And she looks at me and says, ‘Daddy, I don’t care how low it goes. I’m going to finish.’ I was like, ‘Wow, that’s good baby, because Daddy’s leaving if it goes any lower than one degree!”

The actor insists he and wife Jada Pinkett Smith make sure their children don’t get special treatment and have to audition for movie roles. He also revealed that when Willow won the part of his daughter Marley in I Am Legend, she turned to Jaden and stuck her tongue out at him.
