Katy Perry invited Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s daughter North West on stage with her at a recent gig. Check out footage below.

Currently, the Santa Barbara star is performing at Resorts World in Las Vegas for her Play residency, which started in December 2021.

Hosting a “walk-off competition” for her Firework Foundation at her April 15 show, Katy Perry invited the nine-year-old North West to the stage to participate and then pretended to ask her name.

“The reason I know your name is I’m a huge fan of your TikTok,” said Perry. “I’ve seen a couple of them that you’ve made. You’re a really good dancer and what better way to be a great dancer [than] to show the world your awesome dance moves.”

Reflecting on North’s age, Perry spoke about when she was nine she “started singing” and “found her spark”. Asked what she wanted to be when she was older, North West said, “Everything!”, and earned a laugh from the crowd.

North and other young fan were then named winners of the dance-off. Other celebrities attending the concert included Paris Hilton and Sia
