North West Claps Back At Critics Calling Her Style “Demonic”
Written by Kiss Media on 16 October 2026
Kiss 101.7 fam, the culture’s youngest star is not letting the internet tell her who she is. During a livestream with her mom Kim Kardashian, 13-year-old North West saw comments calling her “demonic” — and she addressed it head-on. “Stop saying I’m demonic,” she said, adding “Don’t judge a book by its cover” and making it clear her faith is solid: she believes in Jesus, and grills, piercings, blue hair, and dark fits don’t change that.
Kim backed her daughter, saying people are really just reacting to the black grills, the piercings, and the bold styling — and that snap judgment says more about the critics than about North. North even clarified that none of her piercings are real; she changes them daily, though she admitted she wants a real cheek piercing — something mom Kim, 45, is not feeling. She also rejected claims her style comes from her parents’ divorce, shutting down another narrative before it could run.
Here’s the context: North has been experimenting with alternative looks for years — fake face tattoos, nose rings, blue hair — and Kim has always defended the creativity, previously calling it “such a non-issue.” But North isn’t just a fashion story anymore. She’s building a real music career: she dropped her debut EP N0rth4evr earlier in 2026 (rage-rap and goth-rock influenced, via Gamma), appeared on “Talking/Once Again” from Vultures 1, performed at Rolling Loud Orlando, and took the stage with her father at SoFi Stadium. She recently scrapped her planned 14-date co-headlining KimoKawaii tour with Molly Santana. The “Aishite” video — the horror-themed visual with the blue hair, piercings, and dark aesthetic at the center of this whole conversation — is her most recent official release:
The takeaway? A 13-year-old is out here setting boundaries and standing in her faith while running a music career. Grown folks could take notes. What do y’all think — is the criticism of North’s style fair, or is the internet doing too much?
