Jaden Smith and Willow Smith are considering retirement from showbiz within the next 10 years. In an interview with Pharrell Williams for Interview Magazine's latest issue, the siblings discuss where they see themselves in ten years.
Jaden says he wants to be "gone," while Willow sees herself "in the
mountains somewhere in a tent cooking a squirrel." The 18-year-old actor
asks his sister, "Not a squirrel, Willow! Why!? Why a squirrel?" She
replies, "I don't know! Because that's probably going to be the only
food I have."
Jaden jokes, "Nah, you're going to be a vegetarian. You'll be surviving
off grass in the morning." Willow responds, "Hopefully. Yeah, bro! I
want to retreat back to living off the land and just being in nature,
experiencing life in the most pure, natural way possible."

During the interview, Jaden and Willow also talk about their parents Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith.
"Growing up, all I saw was my parents trying to be the best people they
could be, and people coming to them for wisdom, coming to them for
guidance, and them not pushing themselves on a pedestal, but literally
being face-to-face with these people and saying, 'I'm no better than
you,' " Willow shares, "They always give back what people give to them."

"What my parents have given to me is not anything that has to do with
money or success or anything that society says people should be focusing
on - it's something spiritual that only certain people can grasp and
accept. And that's how I act and move in the world today," she
continues.
Jaden says, "I 100 percent agree with Willow on that one. My parents are
definitely my biggest role models. And that's where me and Willow both
pull all of our inspiration from to change the world. It all comes from a
concept of affecting the world in a positive way and leaving it better
than it was than when we came. I feel like that enters into all types of
different areas because there are so many different outlets that life
has to offer for us."

"That goes into technology, into music. That goes into science, into spirituality, into education," he adds,
"Where me and Willow come from, a lot of it is trying to make society
more efficient, so that kids don't cry, like, 'Why do I have to go to
school?' Instead, kids are like, 'Yeah! I'm so glad to go to school! I'm
a better person than I was yesterday, and I can help people.' "
When Pharrell jokes that the siblings are like "identical twins," Willow
says, "Yeah. It's crazy, the sibling dynamic. I could've spent my
entire childhood like, 'I have to love this person.' And it becomes a
chore. But our parents were never like, 'You have to love them.' It was
more like, 'You have your life. He has his life. And when you guys want
to come together, when you guys want to commune, that's up to you.' And
throughout us realizing ourselves and realizing each other, we just opened our eyes and were like, 'Damn, you are the yin to my yang.' "
