Yeah, I\u2019m not going to clutch my pearls at this. North West, a ten year old, covers i-D magazine as part of their \u201cNew Wave\u201d edition. North is the eldest child of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Arguably, North is the only one Kanye actually cares about or spends any time with, as far as I can see. It also feels like North is a daddy\u2019s girl – she loves her dad so much, and Kim (to her credit) has not filled North\u2019s head with all of Kanye\u2019s misdeeds and antisemitic history. So I think North is way too young for this kind of exposure? For sure. But I\u2019m not her mother and, clearly, Kim feels this is appropriate and so be it. The only positive thing I\u2019ll say here is that it\u2019s objectively stupid to interview a 10-year-old for a magazine cover profile, so i-D kept everything really simple and the interview was short. Some highlights (i-D\u2019s questions in bold):<\/p>\n
\nWhat\u2019s your favourite song right now?<\/strong>
\u201cThrough the Wire\u201d by Kanye West.<\/p>\nDo you like singing? Do you like performing?<\/strong>
Yeah, I like singing. Performing is my favourite.<\/p>\nDo you think you get that from your family?<\/strong>
Sometimes, mostly from me though. And then a little bit of my dad.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s your favourite outfit right now?<\/strong>
Vintage T-shirts and Spider sweats.<\/p>\nWho\u2019s your style icon?<\/strong>
Me.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s your favourite thing from this shoot?<\/strong>
That I got fries, because I really craved fries, and I love doing hair and I got to do my own edges for this shoot.<\/p>\nDo you like having your picture taken?<\/strong>
Yes. Only when I want to, because ehhh, I don\u2019t want to sometimes. But not by the paparazzi.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s the best fashion show you\u2019ve ever been to?<\/strong>
My little sister\u2019s fashion show in her closet.<\/p>\nWhat three words would you use to describe yourself?<\/strong>
Umm… The Best Ever.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s the best thing about being North West?<\/strong>
I get to play basketball. Everything. I got to go to Halloween Horror Nights.<\/p>\nWhat do you like to paint?<\/strong>
Everything, except helicopters. Helicopters are so hard because they have all these little lines.<\/p>\nHave you made any more art recently?<\/strong>
Yeah, literally today in art class. But it\u2019s a secret for my mom\u2019s birthday. Last week I finished a landscape and a sunset and I made a little circle thing.<\/p>\nDo you have any other hobbies?<\/strong>
Yes. Going shopping for people. Basketball, but it\u2019s not a hobby, it\u2019s a lifestyle. And I just love basketball so much.<\/p>\nWhat do you want to be when you\u2019re older?<\/strong>
A basketball player, a rapper, um… Well, when I was seven, I wanted to be a boxer. But now I don\u2019t want to be a boxer. I\u2019m going to do art on the side. When I\u2019m, like, thirteen, I want to walk dogs, to make money to buy art supplies, because everything around here is so expensive. So a rapper, a basketball player, and I\u2019m 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.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n[From i-D]<\/p>\n
Granted, there are some smaller women playing college and pro basketball, but North will probably be in for a rude awakening when she\u2019s like 16\/17 and she\u2019s barely, like, 5\u20196\u201d. Kim is very short and Kanye isn\u2019t tall, meaning North has short genes and they will affect her future in basketball. Still, if she loves to ball, then she loves to ball. I think it\u2019s cool that she\u2019s a little jock and a little artist. That\u2019s righteous, and that\u2019s how it should be – no 10-year-old should have a reasonable life plan, and it\u2019s cool that Kim is encouraging her kids to have all kinds of hobbies. It\u2019s hilarious that North is already plotting to take over her parents\u2019 businesses too.<\/p>\n
