Jada Pinkett Smith Reveals How Tupac's Death Changed Her Life
The conversation then turned to Willow's perception of loss.
Willow said her greatest loss was at one point her sanity. "I would have to say, honestly feel like I lost my sanity at one point," said the star. "It was after that whole 'Whip My Hair' thing'… I just stopped doing singing lessons and I was kind of like in this gray area of like who am I? Do I have a purpose? Is there anything like that I can do besides this?"
The 17-year-old singer, whose tune came out when she was just 9-years-old also revealed that she began cutting herself to cope.
"After the tour and the promotion and all of that they wanted me to finish my album I was just like…I'm not going to do that and after all that kind of settled down and there was just kind of a lull," said Willow. "I was listening to all kinds of dark music and like it was just so crazy, I was just plunged into this black hole. And I was like cutting myself… and doing crazy things."
Willow also admitted she didn't tell her brothers, only one friend, at the time.
"I never talk about it because it was such a short weird point in my life. But you have to pull yourself out of it, ya know. I honestly felt like I was experiencing so much emotional pain but my physical circumstances weren't reflecting that," admitted Willow.
Last week on the show's first episode, Jada sat down with Will's first wife Sheree Fletcher and admitted it was wrong for the pair to date before he was divorced.
