Kim Kardashian’s daughter North West has landed the cover of Vice Media’s i-D.
In her interview, the 10-year-old KUWTK veteran revealed she takes after her father Kanye West.
The reality TV star proudly declared that her favorite song at the moment is Kanye’s classic hit Through The Wire from 2004.
She declared that ‘I like singing’ and ‘performing is my favorite,’ adding that the urge comes ‘mostly from me… and then a little bit of my dad.’
At her tender age, she already has ambitions to take over the family businesses, specifically her mother’s shapewear line SKIMS and her father’s fashion label Yeezy.
The precocious admission came when the magazine asked little North about what she wants to be when she grows up.
‘A basketball player, a rapper, um… Well, when I was seven, I wanted to be a boxer. But now I don’t want to be a boxer. I’m going to do art on the side,’ she replied.
‘When I’m, like, 13, I want to walk dogs, to make money to buy art supplies, because everything around here is so expensive,’ the showbiz legacy reasoned.
‘So a rapper, a basketball player, and I’m going to make artwork that I sell. Also, one day I want to own Yeezy and SKIMS, and I want to be a business owner.’
Little North opened up about her influences from her rap star father, dishing that if she could meet anyone, she would select Tupac.
Kim’s impact on her was also in evidence, as North’s most prized article of clothing that she owns is a ‘Michael Jackson jacket that my mom got me for Christmas!’
Although Kim and Kanye split up in 2021, they have been seen amicably reuniting ever since in order to attend North’s basketball games.
Basketball has clearly become a source of joy in the little girl’s life, and her dedication is such that she described the sport as ‘not a hobby’ but ‘a lifestyle.’
Gushing that ‘I just love basketball so much,’ she spilled that her most treasured memory is ‘When I first tried basketball, because I was so bad. So I know those memories and I’m like: “Ooh, now I’m so good,” I got so much better.’
She even said the best aspect of her life is that ‘I get to play basketball,’ then added: ‘Everything. I got to go to Halloween Horror Nights.’
As far as North is concerned, the three words that sum up her existence are: ‘Blessed, awesome, cool,’ and her self-description is: ‘The Best Ever.’
Kim is now a high-flier in the fashion industry – as Kanye used to be until last year, when his career imploded after his string of anti-Semitic outbursts.
However despite her frequent exposure to the haute couture business, North’s favorite fashion show experience took place at home.
She sweetly shared that the greatest fashion show she ever attended was the one put on by her five-year-old sister Chicago ‘in her closet.’
Although she covets her ‘mom’s clothes and my dad’s clothes, if they fit me,’ North proclaimed that the person whose dress sense she looks up to is herself.
Kim and Kanye, who married in Florence in 2014, are co-parenting four children – North, 10, Saint, seven, Chicago, five, and Psalm, four.
