Kanye West Calls Out Kim Kardashian During Instagram Rant
Kanye opened his Instagram Live by saying he was "tired of pretending everything is fine" and needed to address Kim Kardashian "as a co-parent, not as an ex."
"You refuse to settle down," he said. "You’re still living like the cameras are the most important thing in the house. The kids need a home that feels like a home, not another set. You’re always moving, always filming, always building the next thing. That’s not settling. That’s running."
"You depend on nannies more than you depend on being their mother every day," he continued. "I see it. The kids know it. You have people raising them while you do whatever you do. I’m not saying nannies are bad. I’m saying you use them so you don’t have to change how you live."
Kanye then turned to talking about North West, in particular the way that she dresses, saying it's "too grown, too styled, too much like a mini version of the brand instead of a kid."
"She's a child," he said. "Kids are supposed to look like kids. Not like they’re walking a runway or copying adult clothes. You’re putting her in outfits that make people look twice for the wrong reasons. That’s not fashion. That’s you projecting. Let her be a little girl. Stop making her dress like she’s already in the family business."
Kim Kardashian Slammed For Poor Parenting
Kanye West's rant has only underlined a lot of the criticism Kim Kardashian has been receiving online for the lack of boundaries she sets for North. The 13-year-old has gotten a number of piercings on her hands, fingers, and most recently debuted lip piercings, along with a fake face tattoo. Doctors are even beginning to chime in with the potential risks and side effects associated with getting a finger piercing, especially at such a young age.
Dr. Donald Grant, general practitioner and Senior Clinical Advisor at The Independent Pharmacy, gave his thoughts on the matter as well, calling it a "risky" choice for anyone to get one, let alone a child. "Dermal piercings, particularly those placed on the finger, carry risks that can easily be underestimated or attributed to more familiar concerns," he explained. People often miss the "early signs of irritation or rejection," chalking it up to dry skin or a healing delay, but it could actually be much more serious.
Corey Hartman, a board-certified dermatologist and founder and medical director of Skin Wellness Dermatology, also spoke out against the situation, saying, "Just don't do it."
"Long term, these piercings can lead to hypertrophic scars, hyperpigmentation, disfigurement and loss of function of the body part where the piercing is done, particularly in patients with highly melanated skin, like North West."
