North West: reality TV, dinette and Instagram

It all started in 2012. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West then announced that they were in a relationship.

Today the news seems obvious, immutable, almost destined.

The queen of reality TV and the most megalomaniacal rapper of her generation together is like a sacred union.

Eight months only after the formalization of their relationship, Kim Kardashian becomes pregnant.

North West was born on June 15, 2013, in Los Angeles.

And already, the tabloids are revealing the details of her mother's difficult childbirth.

During the following years, the media attraction for the girl's life only grew.

The spotlights shone on his father, a rap genius, and his mother, popess of reality TV, splash their light on him.

Since then, North West has never fallen into the shadows.

We have seen her open her eyes with Hermès slippers, celebrate her first birthday in a Ferris wheel installed in her garden, and carry her first Birkin bag at 6 years old.

Over time, she has, without a doubt, become the most exposed child on social media.

Blessing or burden?

From the height of its 9 years, North West embodies, whatever the case, the succession of the most incredible family in America.

In this mini-series devoted to the children of stars, the journalist Sarah Dahan questions: how does a child experience the fact of constantly evolving in the spotlight?

What sets North West apart from other celebrity kids, like Suri Cruise or Shiloh Jolie-Pitt?

Is she a marketing tool like any other for her parents?

Or better: is she the future of her clan's flourishing business?

To answer these questions, Sarah Dahan revisited the childhood of an heiress like no other.

At his microphone follow one another:

• Emily Kirkpatrick, journalist at

  Vanity Fair US

• Sarah Jean-Jacques, researcher specializing in gender and sexuality issues

• Pascal Lardellier, sociologist and author of
