Willow Smith releases new video, announces tour dates with Billie Eilish

It was a big Monday for Willow Smith, who dropped a live video for her song “Lipstick” and released tour dates for her upcoming performance schedule with singer-songwriter Billie Eilish. 

Smith — who musically goes by the mononym Willow — will be performing with Eilish beginning at next month’s Life Is Beautiful festival in Las Vegas, Nevada on Sept. 17.

The pair will again team up in early 2022, when Willow, 20, will join Eilish, 19, on a tour that begins in New Orleans on Feb. 3. They will also play shows in Atlanta, Georgia, and Charlotte, North Carolina, before heading north to Pittsburgh, Washington DC, Buffalo, NY and Philadelphia. The artists have two nights of shows in Canada followed by two nights at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, then on to Boston, New Jersey and finally, on April 8, one last performance in Inglewood, California.

Meanwhile, Willow released a live video for the track “Lipstick” off her new album, “Lately I Feel Everything.” The performance video for the pop-punk song racked up 15,000 views in its first seven hours online.

In the just under three-minute-long clip, Willow — who is the daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith — performs alongside Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, who celebrated his own milestone on Saturday: The rocker got on a plane with girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian in his first airplane ride since he was in a deadly 2008 crash.

Willow recorded “Lately” during the pandemic, and it debuted on the Rolling Stone‘s albums chart at No. 33 upon its July release. In addition to Barker, it also features collaborations with Avril Lavigne, Tierra Whack, Cherry Glazer and Ayla Tesler-Mabe.
