North has found social media fame in recent months and has appeared frequently on a TikTok account she shares with her mother.
Her TikTok fame comes after Kanye publicly voiced his strong objections to his eldest child being allowed onto the platform.

Last year, Kanye saw his career implode and his billion-dollar fortune plummet after a series of anti-Semitic outbursts in interviews and on social media.
North and Saint’s film roles follow a social media furore over “Nepo babies” who are said to have made showbiz careers through family connections.
Focus landed on a spate of rising starlets with famous parents, from Johnny Depp’s daughter Lily-Rose Depp to Andie MacDowell’s daughter Margaret Qualley.

Dakota Johnson, whose parents are Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith and whose grandmother is Hitchcock blonde Tippi Hedren, was one of the faces on the cover.
Jamie Lee Curtis, the daughter of Psycho actress Janet Leigh and Some Like It Hot dreamship Tony Curtis, then chimed in the debate.
Calling herself the “OG Nepo Baby,” she complained, “The current discussion about Nepo babies is only intended to try to belittle, disparage, and hurt them.”
