Earrings are back and there are more of them.
North West has been under fire for weeks over alleged skin piercings on her hands and face.
Now, in response to the haters, West shared an image to his Instagram Story showing off multiple new piercings on both hands and at least one wrist.
In addition to the two original left hands, the 12-year-old girl appears to have added three spikes and three balls to the same hand, two spikes and two balls to her right hand, and what appears to be a flat earring on the outside of her left wrist.
She held her hand in front of her face and wrote “🪡🔛✋🏽” over the image.
It’s unclear whether the jewelry is real or fake, but the new photo shows her original finger piercings looking provocative.
West sparked public outrage over the first piercing, which was discovered while on a family vacation in Rome this summer, citing the dangers of common skin piercings and the added risks of piercings on frequently used extremities, such as hands.
And in January, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s daughter showed off her second finger piercing on social media, showing off her two double ball piercings and pumping her fist at the camera.
Soon she drove the point home with a song called “Piercing on My Hand (Ye’s version).”
In the lyrics, which she co-wrote with her father, she declares, “I got my hands pierced and someone else held the band” and “I don’t know if I’m crazy/I want more piercings and tattoos/I love braiding my blue hair.”
While Kardashian hasn’t talked about the piercings specifically, she spoke to Alex Cooper about her controversial fashion and beauty choices on Call Her Daddy, saying, “It’s so hard and so interesting because all the kids wear the same thing. But when my daughter tried to put it on, I was like, ‘Okay, I’m never going to wear it again.'” Unfortunately, we made that mistake in front of the whole world. ”
