North West is doubling down. Literally.
After receiving flack for her “dangerous” finger piercing, the 12-year-old is taking to social media to show off a second one right next to it.
On Tuesday afternoon, West shared a photo to her Instagram Stories, holding her fist up towards the camera. On both her middle and pointer fingers were a double-ball finger piercing.
Less than 15 minutes later, she dropped a beat that, while no words were sung, bore the title “Piercing on my hand hardstyle outro.”
Back in September, mom Kim Kardashian was put under fire after West was seen with a dermal piercing.
“Who the f—k lets their 12 year old have piercings? And who the f—k pierces a 12 year old? My kid didn’t even have her ears pierced at 12,” a Reddit user shared — others echoed the same sentiment.
And, while Kardashian didn’t specifically address the piercing, she did talk about West’s controversial fashion choices while on “Call Her Daddy,” lamenting, “It’s really hard and it’s really interesting because all the kids are wearing the same things,” adding, “But then my daughter tries to wear it and then I’m like, ‘okay, we’re never wearing that again.’ Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world.”
A few months later, the teen herself fired back, sharing a TikTok with the caption, “This is for everyone that’s mad over a finger piercing.”
Despite the response, in a Christmas post showing off a pair of new diamond “shark grills,” the piercing seemed to be totally gone.
There’s also, of course, the possibility that West is didn’t really pierce her hands and is just testing out the look with a temporary adornment. After all, her nose bridge piercing turned out to be a sticker.
North has been experimenting with her looks for years, including a fake nose ring at the age of six. She’ll forever be a style star.
