It sounds like audience members thought she killed her performance! According to TMZ, she received a standing ovation. Several of her family members cheered her on in the audience, including mom Kim Kardashian, dad Kanye West, grandmother Kris Jenner, aunt Kourtney Kardashian, uncle Travis Barker, and her younger siblings! And they obviously were so proud of Miss Westie! The Us Weekly source said the rapper filmed the entire performance:
“Kanye whipped out his phone to film as soon as she began. Kanye filmed the whole time and gave North a standing ovation. She was absolutely adorable and you can tell she will be a good singer. She has a good voice. She danced and moved across the stage and had good rhythm.”
Once the show was over, North joined the rest of the cast — including Jennifer Hudson and Billy Eichner — on stage for the curtain call. The source said:
“North waved and clapped along with the others. She was so cute, waving and smiling to those in the crowd as she exited the stage. She looked like she didn’t want the night to end!”
