Jaden Smith fans 'work out' reason behind unusual outfit for Grammys

We're only minutes into the 2025 Grammy Awards, and already, Jaden Smith has set tongues wagging.

The actor rocked up to the festivities in Downtown Los Angeles to support his hit-making little sister Willow - who herself is up for several awards - where he was dressed as a literal castle.

As we say, 26-year-old Karate Kid actor Jaden's sister has bagged a handful of nominations at this year's ceremony - including Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical for her compilation Empathogen.

"I’m just excited for the whole thing, bro," Willow, 24, told Vogue Australia ahead of the awards. "I’m excited for people to hear what I can really do and how I’m stretching and pushing myself to become a better musician.

"I want people to hear it and feel loved and feel understood. And like they’re not alone, because they’re not."

Jaden and Willow will also be joined by their Fresh Prince of Bel Air father Will Smith, with the trio already having been spotted on the red carpet.

Unfortunately for Willow, however, it sounds as though her big bro has somewhat stolen her thunder, by donning an outfit reminiscent of a castle.

Along with his tuxedo, Jaden opted for a headpiece which included a tower, with a tiny cut-out hole for his face.

His outfit has sparked mass discussion online, with some fans believing they've discovered what the young star may have used as his inspiration for the unconventional look.

"Jaden Smith at the Grammys referencing Willem Dafoe," one wrote on X (formerly Twitter), as another added: "Jaden Smith channels his inner Willem Dafoe at the #Grammys"

For those out of the loop, in 2023 Spiderman actor Dafoe rocked up to a GQ Italy shoot centred on the notion 'Home Is Where Your Head Is', where he was famously pictured wearing a similar, black headpiece - a castle with a cutout.

It's not believed that Dafoe will be turning up to the festivities - but by the look of Jaden's get-up, he'll be here in spirit.

As always, live from the Crypto.com Arena in Downtown Los Angeles, this year’s ceremony will see the biggest names and the richest talent in the music biz battling it out for an accolade and a spot on the Grammys hall of fame.

Trevor Noah – South African comedian and writer – will once again host this 67th ceremony tonight, marking his fifth year in a row as lead presenter.

The ‘big four’ categories – Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist will see gal pals Sabrina Carpenter, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Cardi B and Chappell Roan go head-to-head, alongside the likes of Kendrick Lamar and Benson Boone.

Representing the Brits across the pond in this year’s leading categories are Charli XCX, Raye and The Beatles.

Sabrina Carpenter has already won the first Grammy of 2025 in the Best Pop Solo Performance category ‘Espresso’.

And following a very Brat summer, Charli XCX has bagged the likes of the Best Dance/Pop Album, and Best Dance/Pop Song for her lead single Von Dutch – both marking her first ever Grammys as a solo artist.

Doing it for the boys, Kendrick Lamar has also been awaited three consecutive prizes already – Best Rap Song, Best Rap Performance and Best Music Video.

It’s expected that Queen Bey will walk away with an award or two this year, with country-esque album Cowboy Carter having been shortlisted for a staggering 11.

The festivities will also see several huge-name stars performing live – including Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga, John Legend, Sheryl Crow, Cynthia Erivo, Shaboozey, Shakira and Teddy Swims.
