A STAR IS BORN
North has followed in the footsteps of her famous parents Kim Kardashian, 43, and Kanye West, 46, and kickstarted her career in entertainment.
The child star first hit the stage four years ago when she hit the stage at her dad’s Paris Fashion Week runway show.
The then 6-year-old rapped a cute song with catchy lyrics as Yeezy models strutted down the catwalk.
In January 2024, Kanye announced his Vultures album and proceeded to host several launch parties where he rapped tracks from the record.
NATURAL PERFORMER
Not only did North deliver a verse in her father’s collab single Talking/Once Again with Ty Dolla $ign, but she also joined the pair for many of their toured performances.
The burgeoning singer belted the lyrics, “It’s your bestie, Miss, Miss Westy!”
“Don’t tryna test me. It’s gonna get messy. Just, just bless me/ Bless me!”
The pre-teen even hit the stage with the fashion designer in March during his appearance at Rolling Loud Festival.
Kim’s daughter was joined by friends and her cousin Penelope Disick, 11, in front of a massive crowd at Hollywood Park Grounds.
For this particular show, North’s siblings Psalm, 4, and Chicago, 5, also joined her on stage where they happily danced together.
Kanye shares the three tots, along with his son Saint, 7, with the Skims founder.
