Kim Kardashian SLAMMED by fans for trying to ‘outdo’ daughter North West by copying Lion King costume for new shoot: ‘You really can’t let anyone have their moment’

Kim Kardashian came under fire on Tuesday after her fans accused her of trying to upstage her daughter North West’s recent performance in a live version of The Lion King.

The 43-year-old reality TV icon set off the controversy when she posted several photos of herself in a furry yellow coat and an oversize trapper hat — which was a dead ringer for her 10-year-old daughter’s costume when she performed on stage as Simba at the Hollywood Bowl in May.

North — whom Kim shares with her ex-husband Kanye West — was cast in a screening of The Lion King that featured live musical numbers synced to the iconic Disney animated film.

You couldn’t let your daughter have a moment u had to wear it too,’ wrote one infuriated user.

‘Why can’t she ever let anyone have their moment. Always wats to outdo the original [sic],’ another person commented on her Instagram post.

One person joked that North’s show-stopping role must have made Kim want a ‘part’ in The Lion King too.

Others took the fact that Kim posed in a similar outfit as North’s to claim that her daughter’s performance was ‘just a promotional stunt.’

A particularly annoyed poster tried to guess what might have been inside the Kardashians star’s mind.

‘”Let’s make it about me,”‘ they suggested.

North’s rendition of I Just Can’t Wait To Be King ended up going viral, and many social media users mocked the quality of her performance, while others assailed her as nothing more than an undeserving ‘nepo baby.’

One poster took North’s poorly reviewed performance as evidence that Kim had set it up for ‘business’ reasons.
