Kim Kardashian has spoken out about her daughter’s controversy after she posed online with fake tattoos and piercings.
The SKIMS founder has addressed the selfie that caused the internet parents to have a meltdown over North West’s style.
It all happened when the 12-year-old appeared in several TikTok clips, showing her with faux tattoos, blue contacts, and a septum ‘piercing’.
She was joined by two other friends, who sported matching braided hairstyles, colorful extensions, and tattoos.

With black grillz, chunky jewelery and an oversized black T-shirt and sneakers, it was clear she had a vision.
Captioning her post, she wrote: "Fake piercings and fake tatts 4 life."
But not everyone appreciated her attempt at alternative dressing.
Soon, people began picking on North - the eldest of Kim’s four children who she shares with ex-husband Kanye West.
Telling her she was too young, internet commenters were out in full force.
"She’s 12 years old by the way," one user wrote.
Another added: "How about go be a kid."
While Kim previously hit back under a TikTok clip shared by Daily Mail Australia, writing, ‘This is such a non-issue', she’s now spoken about it at length.
Speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast earlier this month, Kim revealed her thoughts on North’s fashion sense, and the challenges of being a mom.
The mother-of-four said: “It's really hard and it's really interesting because all the kids are wearing the same things.
“But then my daughter tries to wear it and then I'm like, ‘Okay, we're never wearing that again.’ Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world.”
She added about her daughter: “She's usually a girl that that dresses like a tomboy most of the time and she wanted to try something that her friends were wearing and went to the same place that they went to... and it's just like, okay, wait, maybe you can't wear that, you know?”
She then explained that as a mother, ‘you're kind of learning at the same time,’ but she ‘would never take that creativity away from her.’
While also praised her daughter’s confidence, adding: "She's really mature in one sense where she'll be like, 'Mom, I saw this and I don't really care that they don't like... my blue hair or this or that.
"She's really confident."
It ain’t easy parenting in private, never mind how hard it would be to do it in front of the entire world.
