North West hangs out with streamer Kai Cenat on her birthday as Kardashian fans beg Kim to let preteen ‘be a normal kid’
KARDASHIAN fans have slammed Kim, pleading with her to let North ‘be a normal kid’ as she celebrates her birthday with Kai Cenat.
The Skims mogul’s eldest child turned 11 on Saturday.
North was spotted in photos that were posted by popular Twitch streamer, Kai, 22, on his Instagram Story.
The pics were shared on a Kardashian Reddit page where critics weighed in.
Per a post on a Kai fan page, North was eager to “meet Kai” for her birthday.
The pair collaborated on a painting video.
Whether or not it was her wish, fans were critical of the decision, speculating that Kim, 43, and the rest of the family are catapulting her into stardom.
“They’re really pushing to make her a child star. She will benefit from her last name regardless. Why not let her be a normal kid and then when she’s 18 she can do all of these things? So sad,” one critical commenter wrote.
“Agreed. Kim and Kanye [West] have an obligation to protect North and it consistently seems like they’re doing the opposite. She has no hope for a normal childhood at this point,” A second person critiqued.
“North done met everybody. I don’t know why Kim says yet to everything,” a third person posted.
“[I don’t care] if he’s famous, an 11 year old girl has no business hanging out with a grown man that isn’t related to her. How is that appropriate?!” someone else wondered.
“Cringe,” yet a fifth person posted.
BIRTHDAY GIRL
Kim did not address the criticism but did share a loving message for her daughter on her special day.
She posted a series of photos of herself and North together.
The pics appeared to span over several years.
In the first snap, Kim and North posed in matching all-black ensembles.
