Pink and her daughter Willow.PINK/Instagram
Pink has long stood out for herrefusal to conform to standardsthat she doesn’t believe in, and now she’s passing the torch to her 7-year-old daughter Willow (who’s already startedexperimenting with her own bold looks).
“‘You’re beautiful,'” Pink recalled telling her daughter, before explaining how she’s achieved success without changing her look to please others. “When people make fun of me they say I look like a boy or I’m too masculine or I’m too outspoken. Do you see me growing my hair? Do you see me changing my body? Do you see me selling out arenas all over the world?”

TheBusy Tonighthost has learned to be more mindful of how she speaks about other women and what words she uses to talk about herself around her daughters Birdie, 10, and Cricket, 5, recognizing that her girls are quick to absorb what she says.
“It was something I did before that made sense to me to stop doing,” she continued. “We have to reset the norm, and if we can move away from women’s appearances and bodies as being descriptors for their person, that can be helpful for the young women in my daughter’s generation.

When 18-year-old Willow Smithbuzzed off her signature locksin 2012, mom Jada Pinkett Smith spoke out to support the “Whip My Hair” singer’s decision and shut down the mom shamers who questioned her parenting.
“The question why I would LET Willow cut her hair. First the LET must be challenged,“Jada wrote on her Facebook page.“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.”

Be Authentic

“My mother taught me the importance not just of being seen but of seeing myself. As the mother of two girls, it’s important to me that they see themselves too — in books, films, and on runways,” she toldVoguefor her September issue cover story in 2018.
“It’s important to me that they see themselves as CEOs, as bosses, and that they know they can write the script for their own lives — that they can speak their minds and they have no ceiling. They don’t have to be a certain type or fit into a specific category. They don’t have to be politically correct, as long as they’re authentic, respectful, compassionate, and empathetic. They can explore any religion, fall in love with any race, and love who they want to love.”
