Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s 12-year-old daughter North West has officially joined Instagram. The young star made her debut on Saturday, December 20 and garnered attention online with her very first post. Within hours, her account gained massive popularity and garnered over 400,000 followers.
In her first photo, North recreated her mother, Kim Kardashian’s most recognizable pose. The slightly blurry image showed North flashing two peace signs in a dimly lit room decorated with Christmas lights. She wore a printed Balenciaga T-shirt with a mini skirt and boots. Her hair was styled in a sleek bun. North kept the caption simple, writing, “First post.”
According to his Instagram bio, the account is managed by his parents. Kim Kardashian, 45, and grandmother Kris Jenner were among her early followers. At present, North is not following anyone on the platform.
A second post and a growing fan base
North shared her second Instagram post the very next day, Sunday, December 21. The image showed her covering her face with her hands, while bright blue hair peeked out from beneath a large, fluffy hat.
North, 48, is the eldest child of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. The former couple separated in 2021 and finalized their divorce in 2022. They have four children: North, Saint, 10, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6.
Her Instagram debut comes at a time when North is already familiar with social media. She runs a popular shared TikTok account with her mother, KimAndNorth. On the page, North often posts dance videos and light-hearted clips of Kim, her siblings, and friends.
Here’s how North West is expressing her personal style
North West has been making headlines lately for experimenting with her fashion and beauty choices. In October, she was seen wearing fake body modifications with her friends, including a fake face tattoo, nose piercing, and grillz.
On December 9, North responded to criticism regarding the dermal-style piercing on her middle finger. In a TikTok clip, she lip-synced to the audio, saying, “Why are you crying? How old are you? Just pull it together.” She added text on the video that read, “This is for everyone who is crazy about finger piercings.”
In other recent TikTok videos, North revealed that she bleached her eyebrows and showed off a long blue wig. “Enjoy your life,” she captioned one clip.
