Social Media Reacts To North West’s Performance
Commenters under The Shade Room’s report were critical of the kid actor. Some Roomies stated children who were more talented but missed a great opportunity to perform.
@igobyykira said, “I just wish a little black girl that’s not famous could’ve had this opportunity.” Her comment garnered over 20,000 likes.
@adriannaries4892 added, “She is not even ready, you can tell she didn’t work for the role it was given.”
Roommate @monieee_m commended her performance but thought other children with more experience should have gotten the opportunity. “She did great. But I’m sure there were kids that can sing & act that would have been outstanding. It’s not fair for kids who literally work hard acting & singing etc to get passed up because of a celebrity.”
In addition, some Roomies wondered why other celebrity kids they deemed more talented weren’t chosen.
@flolikejoe stated, “t.i. and tiny daughter heiress wasn’t available?” This comment also received more than 20k comments.
Others roasted North’s costume. She sported a yellow baggie hooded jacket with matching bedazzled joggers. Additionally, she wore a furry yellow headpiece that stopped at her shoulders and slippers of the same material.
@chocolatetonelove asked, “Why the outfit don’t really give lion?”
“The ‘Lion’ costume is sending me. That’s a Tweety Bird costume. They’re wrong for that,” @_keepingitclassy_ quipped.
