North West may be just 9 years old, but the oldest daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West truly got to live the “Teenage Dream” this weekend, when she and some friends attended a Katy Perry concert in Las Vegas. The American Idol judge, who has a popular residency in Sin City, spotted North in the crowd and went full fangirl over being in the presence of the young TikToker. The “Roar” singer invited the youngsters up on stage, and Kardashian — always with her phone at the ready — captured several videos from her daughter’s big moment.
Katy Perry seemed truly surprised to see North West in the audience at her April 15 show at Resorts World. The 9-year-old and her buddies — including cousin Penelope Disick — screamed after being recognized by the singer, and one of Kim Kardashian’s Instagram Stories showed Perry absolutely gushing over Kimye’s eldest, saying:
I think she was into the idea, too, because you can see North West’s reaction in the image below, as Katy Perry’s question was met with more shrieks from the pre-teens. Talk about a “Roar!”
Katy Perry — who previously bonded with Kim Kardashian over their “ugly cry faces” — welcomed North West on stage, also allowing her friends to join her, and asked her to introduce herself to the crowd. Perry asked what she wanted to be when she grew up and was floored by North’s response of: “Everything.”
Yep, that’s definitely the daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. The group proceeded to jump around the colorful stage with Katy Perry, dancing and doing cartwheels.
It was surely a memorable night for the girls, as Kim Kardashian’s Stories showed that they traveled to Las Vegas on her private plane and were treated to Katy Perry-themed mocktails. And after seeing these, I definitely want to zhuzh up my sodas with a fluff of cotton candy:
North West’s mother shared plenty of videos from the concert, both of Katy Perry and of herself singing along to the artist’s biggest hits. She even dueted with her niece, Penelope, as Kourtney Kardashian’s daughter returned to the city of her mom’s first wedding to Travis Barker:
As big of a night as it was for Kim Kardashian and North West, it seems like Katy Perry was equally flabbergasted to find out they were such fans of hers. More photos and videos were taken backstage after the show, where Perry became part of the family, calling herself “Katy Kardashian”:
I mean, she’s got the “K” name, so why not? We’ll be able to see more of Kim Kardashian — and hopefully North West as well, with her hilarious pranks — when The Kardashians Season 3 hits the 2023 TV schedule on Thursday, May 25. In the meantime, you can catch up on the first two seasons with a Hulu subscription.
