Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s oldest daughter, North, fired back at critics over her controversial finger piercing.

In a TikTok video posted Tuesday, the 12-year-old lip-synched along to an audio from reality star Chrisean Rock, saying, “Why are you crying? How old are you? Just pull it together.”

The pre-teen then wrote atop the clip, “This is for everyone that’s mad over a finger piercing.”

The comments were turned off on the video.

In September, Kardashian, 45, was blasted for allowing North to get a dangerous dermal piercing on her middle finger.

The piercing was first spotted when the mother-daughter duo vacationed in Rome.

The following month, the “Kardashians” star defended her daughter’s fashion and beauty choices.

“It’s really hard, and it’s really interesting because all the kids are wearing the same things,” she explained on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast, referring to North’s controversial black corset and mini skirt.

“But then my daughter tries to wear it, and then I’m like, ‘OK, we’re never wearing that again.’ Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world,” Kardashian added.

Last month, the Skims co-founder revealed North was actually the one who clapped back at criticism over her look.

“She writes back to a comment, and she goes, ‘This is such a non-issue,’” the mum of four recalled during Complex’s “GOAT Talk” video, labelling it a “good clapback.”

“Online, it was like, ‘Kim defends North to the end on this look,’” she noted.

Despite the criticism, North has continued to express herself through her fashion and beauty choices.

In October, the aspiring rapper also rocked fake face tattoos, including a star under her right eye and her name in cursive on her left cheek.

North also wore her hair in long, blue braids while sporting black grillz over her teeth, a faux septum ring and coloured eye contacts.
