Kim Kardashian and her eldest child North West shared no less than four TikTok videos of themselves getting glam before Monday’s Met Gala, but only one of them actually attended the fashion festivities.

The 44-year-old SKIMS CEO and her 11-year-old nepo-baby emerged from the Ritz-Carlton in Midtown Manhattan together.

Kim even allowed little North to ride inside the sprinter van with her en route to the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute benefit.

However, Met Gala lead chairperson Anna Wintour created a policy in 2018 that all guests must be 18 or older to attend.

But before the age restriction, Elle Fanning famously attended the 2011 Met Gala, at age 13, alongside her then 17-year-old sister Dakota Fanning as VIP guests of Valentino.

Kardashian bared her back in a black leather Chrome Hearts gown and matching fedora selected by stylist Jahleel Weaver.

Hairstylist Chris Appleton coiffed the Calabasas socialite’s wavy raven mane and make-up artist Mario Dedivanovic fully contoured her (mostly obscured) complexion.

Meanwhile, the sixth grader danced by herself in the hotel room while rocking blue-braided pigtails, a cow-print oversized jacket, matching long shorts, Nike socks, and $1,200 Rick Owens sneakers.

Kim later Instastoried a video of her nanny watching her on TV while exclaiming: ‘That’s your mommy, Chi! Yes, that’s Mommy! Woooo! Oh wow, look at the back, you guys! Wow!’

Kardashian is also mother to three younger children – son Saint, 9; daughter Chicago, 7; and son Psalm, 5 – from her six-year marriage to third ex-husband Kanye ‘Ye’ West, which ended in 2021.

The disgraced 47-year-old vented last Wednesday via livestream: ‘I’mma go get these kids, bro. I’m talking to the lawyers – it gets to the point where I don’t lose my f***in’ mind where I got to get used to not seeing my kids.’

Ye pays Kardashian $200K/month in child support as part of their 20/80 custody arrangement – according to TMZ.

In January, West unveiled what appeared to be hand-drawn album cover art by North for her upcoming debut studio album, Elementary School Dropout, which he’s overseeing as a producer.

The 24-time Grammy winner – who used to be offended by his mini-me being on TikTok – prominently featured his precocious pre-teen on his songs Lonely Roads Still Go To Sunshine (featuring Diddy), Bomb, and Talking/Once Again.

Earlier this year, Grammy nominee FKA twigs featured North rapping in Japanese on her track Childlike Things off her third studio album, Eusexua.

So West was likely disappointed to not be able to reconnect with the British 37-year-old songstress on the red carpet Monday.

The Kardashians producer-star will soon fly to Paris where she’s expected to testify on May 13 as part of the jewelry heist trial.

10 defendants – nicknamed the ‘Grandpa Robbers’ – face up to 20 years in prison if convicted of kidnapping, armed robbery, organized gang, and unauthorized possession of weapons.

It’s been nine years since Kim was robbed of $10M worth of jewelry (including a $4M diamond engagement ring) at gunpoint while staying at Hôtel de Pourtalès during Paris Fashion Week, and none of it was recovered.

Kardashian – who passed the ‘baby bar’ exam in 2021 after failing three times – originally aimed to pass the California State Bar in 2023 without attending college or law school.

But rather than becoming an attorney, the AHS: Delicate actress will pretend to be LA’s ‘most successful divorce lawyer’ leading ‘an all-female law firm’ in Ryan Murphy’s legal drama All’s Fair premiering this year on Hulu.

Kim also executive produces the upcoming show starring acting heavyweights Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash, and Ed O’Neill as well as Teyana Taylor and Matthew Noszka.

Kardashian also executive produces and stars with her famous family in reality series The Kardashians, which Hulu officially renewed for a seventh season last July.
