North West Performs Live As Her Fam Cheers Her On

As previously reported by The Shade Room, North was chosen to act alongside special guests Jenifer Hudson and Jason Weaver.

The TikTok star’s family was in the building to lend their support. Her mother, Kim Kardashian, and father, Kanye West, cheered her on. However, her step-mom, Bianca Censori, didn’t make an appearance.

North’s grandma, Kris Jenner, also attended and captured footage on her phone. Furthermore, Kourtney Kardashian and her hubs, Travis Barker, supported their niece. Moreover, the crowd and the Kardashian-Jenner clan gave North a standing ovation at the show’s conclusion.

Social Media Reacts To North West’s Performance

Commenters under The Shade Room’s report were critical of the kid actor. Some Roomies stated children who were more talented but missed a great opportunity to perform.

@igobyykira said, “I just wish a little black girl that’s not famous could’ve had this opportunity.” Her comment garnered over 20,000 likes.
@adriannaries4892 added, “She is not even ready, you can tell she didn’t work for the role it was given.”
Roommate @monieee_m commended her performance but thought other children with more experience should have gotten the opportunity. “She did great. But I’m sure there were kids that can sing & act that would have been outstanding. It’s not fair for kids who literally work hard acting & singing etc to get passed up because of a celebrity.”
In addition, some Roomies wondered why other celebrity kids they deemed more talented weren’t chosen.
@flolikejoe stated, “t.i. and tiny daughter heiress wasn’t available?” This comment also received more than 20k comments.
Others roasted North’s costume. She sported a yellow baggie hooded jacket with matching bedazzled joggers. Additionally, she wore a furry yellow headpiece that stopped at her shoulders and slippers of the same material.

@chocolatetonelove asked, “Why the outfit don’t really give lion?”

“The ‘Lion’ costume is sending me. That’s a Tweety Bird costume. They’re wrong for that,” @_keepingitclassy_ quipped.
