Kim Kardashian and daughters pose in new snaps amid Lion King drama

Kim Kardashian proudly posed with daughters North West and Chicago in new Instagram snaps uploaded on Sunday, continuing to shrug off the recent Lion King drama.

The SKIMS founder, 43, flaunted her sculpted figure during a wardrobe fitting and could be seen posing at her lavish, $60 million Hidden Hills mansion with North, 10, and Chicago, 6.

Kim Kardashian, 43, proudly posed with daughters North West, 10, and Chicago, 6, in new Instagram snaps uploaded on Sunday. She continues to shrug off the recent Lion King drama.

She was also joined by her mother, Kris Jenner, for the carousel of photos, which were simply captioned ‘my girls.’ The post comes shortly after her eldest daughter, North, was caught up in a ‘nepo baby’ controversy following her performance as Young Simba in The Lion King.

In one image, Kim donned a short-sleeved, white dress that clung to her frame and fell towards the ground. The American Horror Story: Delicate star also opted for a chunky, silver-chained necklace and matching earrings to accessorize the look.

In another picture, Kris Jenner stepped in and flashed a cheerful smile with her daughter and grandchildren while sporting a dark brown ensemble and laced boots.

Her dark locks were pulled back and styled into a sleek updo, preventing loose strands from falling onto her face.

North and Chicago sat on either side of the TV personality as they posed on a comfy couch on a spacious outdoor patio.

A giant sofa could be seen farther in the distance while flames offered an orange glow in a fireplace.

North—who will celebrate her 11th birthday on June 15—matched her mother in a stylish, all-white outfit, while Chicago opted for a denim look.

Lastly, Kim paused for a snap with her youngest daughter as she prepared to kiss the six-year-old gently.

Kim’s Instagram carousel comes shortly after North received criticism from trolls for her performance as Young Simba during The Lion King’s 30th Anniversary concert late last month in May.

The eldest child of Kim and Kanye – who were also in attendance at the concert – took to the stage at The Hollywood Bowl to perform I Can’t Wait To Be King.

After belting out lyrics at the crowded venue, North received a standing ovation from the audience.

However, some social media users on X (formerly known as Twitter) shared their thoughts on Kim and Kanye’s daughter snagging a coveted role in the musical concert.

One noted: ‘Nepotism is the best thing to be born with,’ while another added, ‘The worst case of repo I have witnessed.’

Another penned, ‘Nepotism and the synonym next to it is KARDASHIANS,’ followed by laughing face emojis.

North – who donned her costume – joined other stars on the stage, such as Jennifer Hudson, Billy Eichner, Bradley Gibson, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, Jeremy Irons and Nathan Lane, seen with Hudson above.

‘Nepotism is so crazy, lol,’ one wrote. ‘Someone else’s more talented, probably a voice and dance-trained kid who didn’t get it because his/her family isn’t famous enough.’One social media user penned, ‘She looks great, and it seems like she’s having a lot of fun, but I’m not going to bypass the fact that we all know she wouldn’t be there if it weren’t who her parents were. This is classism at its finest!’

Another chimed, ‘Aw man…I feel bad for the kids there who are actually talented and could’ve nailed this.

‘I’m sure her mom’s influence (or money) is the only reason she got this leading/singing role.’

Weaver added, ‘You’re a true professional, and I wish you nothing but the best as you continue your journey towards GREATNESS!!’

Last May, it was announced that North was cast in the live-to-film concert event, which ran for two nights on May 24 and 25. The Hollywood Bowl can notably hold up to 17,500 people, and tickets for the concert begin at $60.

North—who donned her own costume—joined other stars on the stage, such as Jennifer Hudson, Billy Eichner, Bradley Gibson, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, Jeremy Irons, and Nathan Lane.

Kanye West also attended the concert to support his daughter, Kriwasr, Kourtney Kardashian, and her husband, Travis Barker.

It was later revealed how North landed the coveted role of Young Simba, with a source telling DailyMail.com that Kim’s connection to producers had helped.

Kim has since brushed off the criticism by sharing various behind-the-scenes moments from the big night on social media.

Others later came to North’s defence – with some pointing out her young age, with one typing, ‘North West’s Lion King performance was so cute – she’s a child-like y’all need to calm down.’ ‘Y’all don’t like Kim, so you all take it out on North? Why are people posting videos of her Lion King performance talking about how much better it would be if it were a talented kid??? That’s a baby! Why are you all being weird?’ another questioned.

Kim has since brushed off The Lion King drama and, earlier this week, shared a series of snaps of North dressed as Simba.

One also penned, ‘The world is so cruel sometimes. North performed for some Hollywood Lion King play, and they are ripping that little girl apart online. She is a child…’

Jason Weaver, who played Young Simba in 1994, also showed support for North on Instagram by uploading a photo of the pair.

‘What an honour it is to share the same stage with this young superstar in the making. ‘I’m so PROUD you, North!! You’re doing such a PHENOMENAL job in this show!’

The star added, ‘You’re a true professional, and I wish you nothing but the best as you continue your journey towards GREATNESS!!’

It was later revealed how North landed the coveted role of Young Simba, with a source telling DailyMail.com that Kim’s connection to producers had helped.

‘The Lion King at the Hollywood Bowl and The Kardashians are produced by the same production company, Fulwell 73 Productions.’

‘Gabe Turner, a partner in Fulwell, is also the creative showrunner for The Lion King,’ the insider said. ‘This was a shoo-in for North, and she was told that if she can carry a note, the gig is hers.”They were hoping to draw publicity for this, which they
