North West makes dad Kanye West proud with rap at Paris Fashion Week – amid backlash from other child star
NORTH West, 6, made her rapper dad Kanye proud with her debut performance at Paris Fashion Week last night.
The eldest daughter of Kanye and Kim Kardashian melted hearts when she got on stage at the Yeezy Season 8 show to perform.
She wrote: "in July of 2019, ZaZa & her dad went into the studio for the ultimate experience! To finally begin making the music she wanted to make.
"We take PRIDE in creativity, and believe whether a child’s involved or an adult... creativity deserves RESPECT/homage! What @kimkardashian (Kanye west) are doing with their daughter... with the inspiration of ZaZa & our family in mind is okay...
"we not mad BUT PLS SHOW LOVE AND SUPPORT TO THE ORIGINAL FIRST!!! We admire Kanye west, and adore his journey.
"However, we don’t wanna feel like our daughter’s journey in the world of entertainment is being STIFLED. THANK YOU!"
Fans lent their support to ZaZa - real name Zahara Noel - with one person commenting: "No they didn't. keep pushing Zaza."
Another added: "They should have booked Zaza. Or give credit!!!"
A third remarked: "Zaza got too much sauce nobody can amount to."
ZaZa is a five-year-old entertainer and rapper promoted by her mom and dad.
She has her own YouTube channel with 304,000 subscribers and an Instagram with 1.6 million followers.
Kim and North attended alongside aunt Kourtney, 40, and cousin Penelope, seven.
This wasn't the only controversial moment for Kim Kardashian on the night as she was also accused of cultural appropriation.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star turned up to the event in braids - but the hairstyle divided fans.
One person said: "I wish I was as determined to do anything as Kim Kardashian is to appropriate black hairstyles."
Another added: "Can you please stop appropriating black culture?"
Other users jumped to her defence, with one person saying: "It’s 2020 we know it’s y’all culture. It’s a badass hairstyle and you don’t control the hands that braid it. On top of that , this is only an American issue. No one on earth besides African Americans deem this cultural appropriation."
