“We want to make sure the event is for adults only.”
Kim Kardashian was not on fashion duty on Monday, but she was on mommy duty on the red carpet of the Met Gala. In a recently released TikTok video, North West can be seen on the curbside of the building where the Met Gala was held. In the clip, the nine-year-old stood alone, holding her purse while nervously smiling at spectators. Standing only a few meters away from their car, West could possibly have been in the care of an older adult who was not captured in the video.
She might have been on fashion duty on Monday, but Kim Kardashian wasn’t exactly on mommy duty. In a recently released TikTok video, North West can be seen on the curbside of the building where the Met Gala was held. In the clip, the nine-year-old stood alone, holding her purse while nervously smiling at spectators. Standing only a few meters away from their car, West could possibly have been in the care of an older adult who was not captured in the video.
Nonetheless, many were not having it and soon took to the internet with criticism for Kardashian. “Poor North West, this broke my heart. A little 9-year-old girl left on the curb with strangers by her selfish, narcissistic, exploitative mother,” one Twitter user wrote. “I’m gonna pray this is not true… and if it is… then them people are more garbage than I even thought,” a second person tweeted. In addition to these reactions, many other fans have also called Kardashian out for taking West to the event in the first place.
And if you were wondering why the nine-year-old could not just have walked the red carpet alongside her famous mom and aunties, the Met Gala announced back in 2018 that it was placing an age restriction on the event. “It’s not an appropriate event for people under 18,” organizers told The Hollywood Reporter at the time.
