JoJo Siwa recalls babysitting 'sweet' North West
JoJo Siwa loved babysitting North West in 2019.
The 22-year-old TV star has revealed that Kim Kardashian, North's mom, didn't have any hesitations about allowing her to look after North, who was "a big fan" of JoJo at the time.
Speaking on the 'Rosebud with Gyles Brandreth' podcast, JoJo recalled: "I think I said, 'If North ever wanted to be in a video, I would love to have her. I do these babysitting videos - I normally do it with YouTuber kids, but I could do it for fun with North'.
"She was like, 'Oh my God, I would love to. Could we film it for my show?' I was like, 'Your show, Keeping Up with the Kardashians? Yeah, sure.'"
JoJo remembers Kim and North, 11, being "so calm, so sweet, so down to earth, so nice".
Meanwhile, Kim previously confessed that she feels "really conflicted" about her daughter's burgeoning career.
The SKIMS co-founder admitted to being caught off-guard by North's sudden rise.
Kim - who also has Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, six, with her ex-husband Kanye West - said on an episode of 'The Kardashians': "I thought I was busy before. North, me having to be her momager right now is crazy. It's just, it was not on my list. It was not on my bingo card for this year."
In 2024, North starred as Young Simba in a production of 'The Lion King', while she also featured on Kanye's 'Talking / Once Again'.
And managing North's career has proven to be more time-consuming than Kim ever imagined.
The brunette beauty - who was married to Kanye between 2014 and 2022 - shared: "If she has a shoot, I have to be there all day, so it's like her or me."
Kim also admitted that she's struggled to find a healthy work-life balance amid North's success.
The reality TV star said: "I'm really conflicted on my daughter's career, so we're going to talk about that soon.
"I just really want to make sure that everything's really well balanced. All of the work experiences are balanced out with just enough fun life experiences. I just want balance."

Wayne Carey caught in explosive late-night physical altercation
North Melbourne legend Wayne Carey has been filmed in a heated altercation with a man he described as an 'antagonist' outside a Melbourne pub. The 54-year-old was captured tussling with one man while another, who appears to be Carey's friend, tries to diffuse the situation, in a physical exchange that spilled out onto the streets surrounding Albert Park Hotel on Thursday night. WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: Wayne Carey caught in altercation. In the video, the champion AFL goalkicker and ex-commentator can be seen grabbing at the man's shirt before another man yells out, 'Wayne, Wayne, relax'. The struggle continues as the man attempting to keep peace then speaks to the third man directly, telling him to 'f*** off' and to 'shut the f*** up and go'. A female voice is then heard yelling from somewhere across the road, saying, 'Guys, walk away, people live here. Keep walking. Move it on'. It's the latest in a string of controversies littered throughout Carey's life since his playing days. In 2022, Carey was cleared of any wrongdoing after having a bag of white powder spill out of his pocket at Crown Casino in Perth. He insisted the bag contained crushed-up anti-inflammatory medication. His most infamous controversy was the extramarital affair he had with Kelli Stevens, the wife of former teammate Anthony Stevens, in 2002. Carey and Anthony Stevens have had a long-running feud in the 23 years since, but are set to be reunited at the Kangaroos' 100-year celebration later this year. Carey, Stevens and North great Glenn Archer will all be present for the Round 20 clash against the Western Bulldogs, which takes place in prime time on Thursday night. The trio will show a united front, nearly 25 years since Carey's messy exit from the club. It comes just six months after the club unveiled a video celebration of the centenary year that interestingly excluded Carey. Former teammate Corey McKernan was vocal at the time, but Carey and other North Melbourne greats, including Stevens and Archer will all be present for the special night. Channel 7's Caroline Wilson revealed the exclusive details of Carey's return on 7NEWS Melbourne and The Agenda Setters last month. 'All three men (Carey, Stevens, Archer) are well aware that they will be there together and united for the first time,' Wilson said 'There was speculation last year when North unveiled their centenary jumper. And if you remember, there were North champions from through the eras and there was no Wayne Carey, and Corey McKernan was very upset about this. 'In 2022, a year later, they had a 25-year premiership reunion for the '96 flag, and there was an altercation at a pub between Anthony Stevens and Wayne Carey. We know the history there. 'They had to be separated. I don't think it was physical, but it was not nice. 'And when there was a motorcade the next day at Marvel Stadium, Anthony Stevens wasn't there and Wayne Carey was. 'So the club has worked really hard to get all these guys within the fold. And clearly you can't celebrate your 100th anniversary without Wayne Carey being there.'

Kim Kardashian's $148 pierced nipple bra is not a stunt – it's empowerment
Kim Kardashian's Skims clothing brand announced a new product last month, and it's pretty wild. The 'pierced nipple bra' has fabric nipples pierced with a barbell so that, under a close-fitting shirt, it appears the wearer has very cold, prominent – and pierced – nipples. Skims' Instagram explained: 'Our sexiest bra gets even hotter with faux nipple piercing design so you can get the 'Ooo' without the ouch!' Following the marketing success of the original 'nipple bra' in 2023, this version has already garnered awe, cringe, and bewilderment. You've got to acknowledge Kardashian's prowess for seeing a gap in the market, filling it, and then piercing it. At $148, this is an investment bra for those likely to show it off on their socials rather than being an everyday basic. Like a Guerlain perfume, or Chanel sunglasses, it makes a statement about your school of style. What kind of statement does it make? While the average reader of this masthead would likely not wear skin-tight crop tops that bare their (seemingly highly aroused) nipples for a casual day out, it's no longer taboo (if a walk through Fitzroy is any indication) to go braless or expose underboob. In urban Australia – as much as Los Angeles, Berlin or London – porn, music videos, fashion advertisements, and reality TV now coexist in an 'anything goes' era. Women should have every right to modify our bodies and dress as we want, but we don't have the luxury of taking our choices for granted when men are still advocating for MAGA-inspired 'tradwives', the US Vice President J.D. Vance says women should stay in violent marriages to keep their families together and, according to a Harvard Institute poll from last year, 46 per cent of young Republicans believe 'women are too promiscuous these days'. You might scoff at the idea that Kardashian, an influencer and billionaire, is waving a feminist flag with a fake pierced nipple bra. But it fits perfectly with her push for women's autonomy and empowerment through products that occasionally provoke but also appeal to women's aesthetic and desire for comfort. Male designers have long commodified women's bodies with ill-fitting tat, so the argument that she's exploiting her name for profit doesn't wash with me. Yes, her advertisements are heavily airbrushed and her clothing is unaffordable for many of her followers, but Kardashian built her wealth through Skims (worth approximately $US4 billion) and other savvy investments, by serving women first. In March, she told Vogue Business that it matters to her to have shapewear and lingerie that cater to a broad range of body shapes, sizes (Skims go up to the equivalent of Australian sizes 20/22), skin shades and styles. These sculpted bras are not a mere novelty – the nipple bra was embraced by women who'd had a mastectomy, too. Kardashian built this empire all while completing six years of legal studies and advocating for criminal justice reform. At 44, Kardashian refuses to follow the safe marketing route in showcasing Skims lingerie only on 20-something, skinny, white girls. Her models are diverse, and her grey, brown and beige designs are not created predominantly for the male gaze, but for women's comfort. That's radical in itself. So, to the pierced nipples. This bra design is close to my heart (boom, tish!) because in my late teens, nipple piercings were a trend among the cool girls in university. I didn't dare. Then, about six years ago, when the cool girls of Hollywood (Kendall, Miley, Bella Hadid, etc) were all baring their pierced nipples in paparazzi photos, I decided to join the crew.
