Kim Kardashian has stepped into her “momager” role earlier than expected due to her daughter North West’s rising career — but she is not doing things exactly like her own mother, Kris Jenner.
The Skims founder, 44, discussed on the latest episode of “The Kardashians” how North, 11, is already getting opportunities in entertainment, including playing Simba for “Lion King Live” at the Hollywood Bowl.
“I really wasn’t planning on being a momager for, like, another 10 years,” she admitted during a call with her sister Khloé Kardashian.
Kim then shared, “But, guess what? This momager is not taking 10 percent.”

Jenner, 69, famously has taken 10 percent of all six of her children’s deals, which aside from Kim and Khloé, 40, includes Kourtney Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner.
The family’s full-time manager negotiated the contracts for their first reality show, “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” which helped launched all of the siblings into superstardom.
In October 2017, Kris and her daughters inked a whopping $150 million TV deal to extend their E! show for five more seasons and then got a reported nine-figure paycheck when they moved over to Hulu.
According to Business Insider, the original “momager” takes 10 percent of all her children’s business revenue, which includes products, gigs and TV shows.
In 2022, Forbes reported Jenner’s net worth to be $200 million.
Kris’ agreement with her kids reportedly includes taking a percentage of profits from products, gigs and TV shows. E!

Kim did not specify on “The Kardashians” whether she will take a smaller cut of North’s deals or any at all, but perhaps it’s because the reality star feels her own career is still on fire.
She is the richest member of her family with an estimated net worth of $1.7 billion, and said on Thursday’s episode that she still has about “10 years left of work” that she wants to do.
“I still want to be me,” the aspiring lawyer added. “Little old me … remember me? I still have more to do.”
Kim noted that “every day” that North is “busy doing something” is a day that she “can’t work” because she wants to be “right there” and present for all of her daughter’s commitments.

Aside from the “Lion King,” North has also put out music with her father, Kanye West.
In December 2023, the pre-teen shared in an interview with i-D magazine that she wants to take over her parents’ companies in the future.
She said, “One day I want to own Yeezy and Skims, and I want to be a business owner.”
Aside from North, Kim also shares three other children — Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5 — with West, 47, whom she divorced in 2022.
