Megyn Kelly rips into Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s parenting over North’s magazine cover
Megyn Kelly ripped into Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for “rushing” their daughter North into stardom after the teen’s Dazed magazine cover.
“Does North West have good parents? Because she is on the cover of this British quarterly magazine right now with false teeth, like a grill situation, blue hair, all these facial piercings,” Kelly questioned on her eponymous podcast Tuesday.
“Look at this,” she said in disbelief as the cover flashed on screen. “She is almost exactly the same age as my [son] Thatcher, who was born in July in 2013. [North] was born June of 2013.”
Kelly continued, “I know this age very, very well. He is a sweet little boy. This girl — I mean, would you look at this?”
The journalist noted that North, 13, is launching an album and has already performed at concerts.
“They are rushing to try to make her a star without, it doesn’t appear, any reflection of the significant downside of putting your child on camera for her childhood,” she claimed of Kanye and Kardashian.
Page Six has reached out to Kardashian and West for comment.
This isn’t the first time Kardashian and Kanye — who split in 2021 — have faced backlash over their parenting skills.
In September 2025, the internet erupted after North debuted her controversial finger piercings.
After a TikTok user posted a video saying Kardashian’s eldest daughter “getting a finger piercing is breaking [her] heart,” the Skims founder responded in the comments section, simply writing, “it’s okay 🫶.”
One month later, Kardashian argued that her daughter’s fake face tattoos and piercings were a “non-issue.”
The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum also addressed critics of her daughter’s personal style
in an interview with Alex Cooper of “Call Her Daddy” last October.
“It’s really hard and it’s really interesting because all the kids are wearing the same things … But then my daughter tries to wear it and then I’m like, ‘okay, we’re never wearing that again,’” she said.
“Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world.”
