People are all saying the same thing as North West, 12, debuts Halloween costume amid 'face tattoo' controversy
Kim Kardashian's daughter North West has revealed a few of her Halloween costume ideas a couple of days before the big celebration, and some internet users have been left struggling to get their heads around one particular look.
North, 12, revealed the outfit on the TikTok account she shares with her mom, where she showed herself standing alongside two friends as they showed off their group costume.
The video came just a few days after North shocked viewers with an unexpected look in another TikTok video, in which she was seen wearing fake tattoos, blue contact lenses, and a septum-style piercing.
The video was captioned 'Fake piercings and fake tatts 4 life', but the reassurance that the accessories weren't permanent didn't do much to stop people from judging the clip, with some saying North was 'too young' for such a look.

Kim, however, hit back at the critics as she responded: "This is such a non-issue."
Fast-forward to yesterday (October 28), when North revealed a Halloween costume inspired by Twitch streamer Kai Cenat, who is known for his comedic videos.
North wore a gray blazer and red tie, and completed the look with a wig and goatee in a series of videos in which she impersonated Cenat.
Meanwhile, her pals dressed up as fellow streamers Ray and Tota MC.
The trio tagged their inspirations in the video and received a lot of admiration from viewers who were impressed by their looks, though others struggled to comprehend the fact that the youngsters chose to dress up as internet personalities rather than something 12-year-olds might have opted for a few years ago, like cartoons.
"Kids don’t watch cartoons anymore they watch twitch that’s actually insane to me," one person wrote on X.
A second added: "North really studying internet culture like it’s her job."
But while some people were taken aback by the inspiration behind the looks, others accepted that the internet is simply a part of everyday life for younger generations now.
"North West just dropped the hardest collab of 2025," one person commented, adding: "Kai, Tota, Ray cosplay on POINT—Twitch kids eating cartoons for breakfast now."
Another wrote: "The true measure of cultural relevance in 2025: When the kids of billionaires dress up as popular YouTubers/Twitch streamers instead of superheroes or pop stars. Kai Cenat is officially a certified cultural icon. The accuracy on this costume is insane."
While the streamer look definitely got people talking, it wasn't the only outfit North has debuted this week. She and her friends also showed off an impressive tribute to the Japanese band BABYMETAL, complete with microphones and guitars.
Even if you might struggle to understand North's looks, you can't say she's not dedicated!
