Kim Kardashian: How North reacted to backlash over fake tattoos and piercings

2 hours ago 3

North West isn’t keeping up with social media trolls.

Kim Kardashian shared her 12-year-old daughter’s unbothered reaction to backlash over the fake tattoos and piercings she rocked in a recent TikTok video.

The Skims co-creator revealed to her “All’s Fair” co-star Niecy Nash-Betts in a Complex “GOAT Talk” video on Wednesday that the preteen took her phone last month as naysayers raged in the comments.

“She writes back to a comment, and she goes, ‘This is such a non-issue,’” Kardashian, 45, recalled, labeling this a “good clapback.”

The response was pegged to Kardashian in October, which the reality star mentioned in the recent sitdown.

“Online, it was like, ‘Kim defends North to the end on this look,'” she noted.

While the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum did not break down her thoughts on the daring accessories, she did give context.

“Her and her girlfriends, they love doing costumes, they love doing looks,” she explained. “It’s Halloween season, so they put on fake tattoos on their face, fake piercings. They all had their colored hair.

“They looked like an opium Powerpuff Girls,” the “Kardashians” star continued. “[That’s] what they were going for.”

Kardashian did, however, defend North’s controversial fashion and beauty choices during an Oct. 15 “Call Her Daddy” podcast interview.

At the time, she told listeners it’s “really hard and really interesting” when North goes viral for her clothing, as she did in August over a corset and miniskirt.

“All the kids are wearing the same things,” Kardashian said. “But then my daughter tries to wear it and then I’m like, ‘OK, we’re never wearing that again.’ Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world.”

She noted, “As a mom, you’re kind of learning at the same time. But what I do know is my baby’s such a good girl and such a sweet girl.”

Last month, she asked the public for “grace” regarding North’s style choices.

Kardashian went on to ask for “a little bit of grace” since she’s “doing the best she can” raising North, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6, “by [her]self.”

The Hulu personality, notably, welcomed her little ones while married to ex-husband Kanye West.

She revealed on the podcast that the rapper, 48, hadn’t called their four children “in a couple months.”
