North West used makeup to transform her mom Kim Kardashian into a 'Despicable Me' Minion in a new video on their shared TikTok account
Entertainment1 min read
  • Kim Kardashian sat for a full face of Minions makeup on her TikTok account.
  • A video shows someone, seemingly her daughter North West, putting yellow eyeshadow all over her face.

Kim Kardashian went through a Minion-themed makeover on TikTok, allowing a makeup artist — presumably her daughter, North West — to apply yellow eyeshadow all over her face reminiscent of the "Despicable Me" franchise characters.

On her shared TikTok account with North, @kimandnorth, Kim posted a video on Monday showing someone applying a liquid concealer or foundation to her skin, followed by bright yellow eyeshadow and gold sparkles, a pair of goggles drawn with liquid eyeliner, and blue shadow on her lips to top the look off. In the background, a Minion-ified cover of "I Swear" by John Michael Montgomery from "Despicable Me 2," which has been used in over 168,000 TikTok videos, plays in the background.

"MOMMY MINION," she captioned the video, accompanied by two yellow hearts. A day after it was posted, the video has amassed 4.4 million likes and over 19 million views.

North isn't clearly seen in the video, but it seems reasonable to assume that she's the one applying Kardashian's makeup. Kardashian recently told Allure in an interview published in July that her 9-year-old daughter was "really into special effects makeup," saying that she had hired a teacher to show North how to do "wounds" and "blood."

A representative for Kardashian did not immediately respond to Insider's request for confirmation that North applied the makeup.

Minion-related trends have abounded on TikTok since the release of "Minions: The Rise of Gru." They've involved teenagers showing up to screenings of the film as part of the "Gentleminions" trend, and people, like Kardashian, putting on full faces of Minion-inspired makeup using eyeshadow or face paint.
