North West meets Twitch streamer Kai Cenat for 11th birthday celebrations
Kim Kardashian and her daughter North West embarked on a lavish journey across the country for an extravagant pre-birthday celebration in New York City.
As North geared up to turn 11 on Saturday, June 15, the mother-daughter duo, along with 10 of North’s closest friends, boarded Kim's luxurious private jet to the East Coast, as reported by Page Six.
The festivities began at Serendipity3 in the Upper East Side, where the group enjoyed a delightful meal of chicken tenders, hot chocolate, and ice cream sundaes.
In a playful nod to their destination, North, Kim, and friends wore matching plaid pajamas that read "I Heart NW," creatively riffing on the iconic "I Heart NY" logo.
Adding an unconventional twist to the celebration, North had a special encounter with popular Twitch streamer Kai Cenat.
The meeting, which took place amidst the birthday activities, was documented by Kai on his Instagram Story, showing the duo collaborating on a painting video.
This interaction sparked considerable discussion on a Kardashian Reddit page, eliciting mixed reactions from the community.
While many fans were delighted to see North engaging in creative endeavors with notable internet personalities, some voiced concerns about the potential implications of such public exposure at a young age.
A post on a Kai fan page indicated that meeting the Twitch star was high on North's birthday wish list, leading to a debate about the appropriateness of her spending time with an adult celebrity.
Critics weighed in on the situation, with one expressing concern: "They're really pushing to make her a child star. She will benefit from her last name regardless. Why not let her be a normal kid and then when she's 18 she can do all of these things? So sad."
Others questioned the parenting decisions of Kim and Kanye, with one commenter adding, "Agreed. Kim and Kanye [West] have an obligation to protect North and it consistently seems like they're doing the opposite. She has no hope for a normal childhood at this point."
The discussion also raised questions about the appropriateness of the age gap between North and Kai, with a concerned individual remarking, "[I don't care] if he's famous, an 11-year-old girl has no business hanging out with a grown man that isn't related to her. How is that appropriate?!"
