On Thursday’s episode, North, 10, attended mom Kim’s Met Gala dress fitting.
In the clip, Kim met with Schiaparelli creative director Daniel Roseberry to try on her pearl-laden dress for the red carpet.
After getting a good look at the dress, North revealed that she wasn’t a fan.
The preteen told her mom that the pearls on her dress looked “fake” and “from the Dollar Store.”
She also said that her mom looked like a “Hawaiian girl with her dress all ripped.”
Kim, 43, then disagreed with her daughter: “No, no, I think you’re wrong here.”
“These are very expensive, real pearls. I think you need a lesson on pearls. We’re not going for flapper girl—we’re going for vintage, authentic pearly girly.”
‘FEELS LIKE I’M BEING PUNK’D’
North continued on to say that she thought the gown was too “beachy” and that the diamond accessories around the neck would “ruin” the outfit.
Daniel was stunned, telling cameras: “This is my worst nightmare come to life. It’s like I’m being Punk’d. The night before the Met, getting read for filth.”
But Kim took the opportunity to teach her daughter about manners, telling North: “There’s a way to be honest and not to hurt people’s feelings. So I want you to learn that.”
However, fans bashed Kim after viewing the clip and said that she was the problem.
“I think it boils down to the fact North has zero respect for her mom. And that’s 100% Kim’s fault,” one person shared.
WHAT FANS THINK
More backlash swirled online after a fan shared a screenshot of a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, to a Kardashian internet forum.
It read: “Kim is allowing North to be rude so they can exploit her personality for entertainment purposes.
“In interviews, Kim defines herself as a strict mom, but in the show it’s completely different.”
In a caption, the author said they “agreed” with the tweet – encouraging other fans to share their thoughts.
‘THEY EXPLOIT THEM!’
One Kardashian follower theorized: “I think they’re also counting on North being a hit among her generation and Gen Z through overexposing her, but that’s incredibly risky.”
“They have enough power and wealth to hide anything they want from anyone, the fact we’re seeing any of this is by their choice,” mentioned a second.
A third said: “I know they encourage her interests and let her take part in conversation, but she is not at the same level of knowledge and ability to articulate certain things because she is just a kid.
“They can encourage her and still parent. And now it’s all on camera, which will only come back to haunt her. Kim out of everyone should know that.”
“They’re definitely exploiting their kids but it’s mostly the girls,” a fourth exclaimed.
“One thing Kanye did right was in the beginning not wanting the kids to be on the show. Now they can be turned into marketable products. We’re seeing it happen in real time to a 10 year old,” a fan shared, referring to North’s father, Kanye West.
