Willow Smith work for her dad Will Smith

TMZ has obtained documents filed by Roc Nation, Willow's record label owned by Jay-Z. According to the docs, Roc Nation entered into a recording agreement with Spooky Girl, Inc. "for exclusive recording and entertainment services of Willow Smith."

Spooky Girl is Willow's company -- sort of. You see, the Prez of Spooky Girl is Will, and Willow is listed as an "employee."

And it gets more interesting, because Jada Pinkett Smith is listed as Willow's guardian. Will can't list himself as a parent or guardian because it conflicts with his duties as president of Spooky Girl. So legally speaking, Jada protects Willow from Will!

Contracts involving minors must be filed with the court. But Will and Jada argued in legal docs that the Roc Nation contract contains "highly sensitive and confidential proprietary business and financial information." So the Roc Nation contract was filed under seal, so no one could see how much money Willow is raking in.

Angela Bassett: Leader Spy in "This Means War" Produced by Will Smith

Angela Bassett has joined the cast of director McG’s action/comedy This Means War, which already includes Chris Pine, Tom Hardy and Reese Witherspoon. Will Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment is producing.


The film centers on two best friends who also happen to be international spies who fall in love with the same woman and declare war on each other over her.

I’m sure, with the names I mentioned above, you can guess who’ll be playing what character. I’ll guarantee you that Angela Bassett certainly isn’t playing the woman at the center

No, she’ll be Pine’s and Hardy’s characters boss – a lifelong spy extremely dedicated to her job, so much that she has not much of a personal life.

So, in addition to her roles in the wedding comedy Jumping the Broom, Green Lantern, the ABC new ABC TV series, One Police Plaza, in which Angela will star as the first female police commissioner in New York, and now this new feature film, it looks like it’ll be a busy 2011 for Ms Bassett.

Good for her. Glad she’s getting work. And let’s not forget her directorial debut – an adaptation of Percival Everett’s Erasure, to be titled United States, which I suspect will be going into production next year.
