North West Flaunts Bold Pierced Nails

North West, the 12-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, recently shared glimpses of her new, bold nail design on Instagram Stories. The eye-catching nails were long and blue, decorated with silver studs and miniature piercing-like embellishments.

Some of the nails featured 'North-chan' written in Japanese pink lettering, a reference to her father's album 'Vultures 2.' This aesthetic follows previous instances where North has sparked fan concern over her embrace of piercings and other edgy styles.

In January 2026, North West had already revealed more finger piercings, and the previous month she showcased what appeared to be 'face piercings' while shopping in Japan. Her song 'Piercing on My Hand,' released in February 2026, seems to address the criticism she has received.

Earlier in 2026, North signed with the independent label Gamma and has begun recording sessions. Her mother, Kim Kardashian, is reportedly assisting with a larger business rollout, including trademark applications for 'NOR11' for clothing and accessories.
