In a delightful and revealing interview for the fall issue of Interview magazine, North West opened up about growing up in the spotlight alongside her famous mother, Kim Kardashian. The 11-year-old daughter of the Kardashian matriarch showcased her signature sarcasm, peppering their conversation with both playful and serious questions.

At one point, Kim asked North, “Okay, serious question: how is my cooking?” To which North cheekily replied, “You haven’t cooked for us in a long time. The last time you cooked was two Halloweens ago!” She went on to remind her mom that the last meal Kim prepared for her and her siblings—Chicago and Saint—was mac and cheese. Kim, known for her glamorous lifestyle, admitted, “I’m not a great chef. Fried chicken and cornbread? I’m a one-trick pony.” North’s playful banter continued as she added, “It’s good. It’s just that you’re really good at making me cucumbers and salt.”

But the conversation didn’t stop there. North also revealed a surprising secret: she sometimes uses a fake name to throw off people in public. She shared with her mom, “It’s Katie Johnson. When I’m out at Sky Zone with my friends, they call me Katie. But when I look in the mirror for a long time, I’m like, ‘I don’t look like a Katie.’ So I was like, okay, I got to change my name.” The precocious young girl is known for her honesty, never hesitating to voice her opinions, especially when it comes to her mom’s fashion choices.

Fans may recall a previous instance where North’s candidness was on full display during their hit show, The Kardashians, when Kim asked her daughter for feedback on her 2023 Met Gala dress. North didn’t hold back, saying, “There’s way too many gaps in the pearls. I think we felt the same. Looks like she’s a Hawaiian girl with her dress all ripped.” Kim responded, “Okay, so if we fix the pearls by the leg, ’cause those were all restrung for us.”

However, North had her doubts, stating, “The pearls look fake.” To this, Kim insisted, “No, no, I think you’re wrong here. These are very expensive real pearls. I think you need a lesson on pearls. We’re not going for flapper girl; we’re going for vintage, authentic, pearly girly.”

The exchange revealed North’s fierce and unapologetic honesty, as she continued to critique the dress, stating, “I like the pearls; I just don’t like that it looks like it’s from the dollar store.”

As the interview unfolded, it was clear that North West is not just a child of celebrity; she is a vibrant personality in her own right, unafraid to speak her mind and keep her mom on her toes. With her unique blend of humor and frankness, North continues to captivate audiences, proving that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree in the Kardashian family.
