Willow Smith’s “Whip My Hair” video has quickly become a pop culture phenomenon and YouTube has the numbers to prove it!
There’s no doubt that everyone has fallen in love with 9-year-old Willow Smith and her song “Whip My Hair,” but the surprising thing is that she’s beating out heavy hitters in the music biz, like Rihanna, 22, for top video views on YouTube!
Rihanna’s video for “Only Girl (in the World)” was posted Oct. 14 and has reached 3,518,973 (and counting!) views. That’s not small peanuts for the multi-platinum music star, but from the looks of it, she’s got some serious competition!
Willow Smith, daughter of mega movie stars, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, has hit the music scene running with her song “Whip My Hair.” Her viewing numbers since the video premiere Oct. 19 have gone beyond expectation and trumped Rihanna with 4,909,999 (and counting!) views!
Wow! We are totally impressed that a 9-year-old can possess so much talent and charisma to steal the spotlight from a seasoned artist like Rihanna!
Check out both videos below and vote on which video you like better!
I never saw Rihanna's video TBH, but I saw Willow's in the first day. I guess it was just a momentum thing. Imma wait for Rihanna's video to pass on the TV for me to watch it. Won't spend my time on youtube with her.

Well I think the reason behind the massive number of views is that everybody is just curious to see what a 9-year-old with a voice and swagga like that look in a music video

7.7 million views isn't strictly on curiosity. The song is hot and people want to watch the video.
And not surprised. More surprised that 6 million people watched "OG".
