In the latest episode of The Kardashians, North was shown giving her honest criticism of Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala gown. At a fitting with Schiaparelli’s Daniel Roseberry ahead of the 2023 event, North, 10, didn’t hesitate to give notes. “I like the pearls, I just don’t like how it looks like it’s from the dollar store,” North said. According to Kardashian, 43, this wasn’t the first time she shared her unabashed critique. “North can be critical,” Kardashian explained in a confidential. “I had John Galliano fitting me for a dress and North was giving notes. This is just her vibe.” (Galliano is currently the creative director of Maison Margiela but currently led Givenchy and Dior.) Kim Kardashian attends the 2023 Met Gala.

As Kardashian tried on the Met look — which consisted of more than 50,000 pearls and took 1,000 hours to make — she asked North for notes. Her daughter didn’t hold back. First, North critiqued the gaps in the pearls, saying her dress looked ripped. Kardashian’s daughter added that she thought the pearls looked “fake.” “It’s like I’m being punked,” Roseberry said. “The night before the Met, getting grilled by a 9-year-old.” Never miss a story — sign up for PEOPLE's free daily newsletter to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from juicy celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.

Kardashian said she's trying to teach North how to be honest without being offensive. "There's a way to be honest and not hurt people's feelings, and I want you to learn that," Kardashian told her daughter. Despite North's harsh criticism, Kardashian insisted that she is the "sweetest ever." North offered her sartorial review while watching the Met Gala red carpet later in the episode. North and her cousin Penelope Disick, 11, deemed Jared Leto's Choupette costume "cringe," and Pete Davidson's look fit for the "gas-station." "All North wants to do is rate people's outfits, and she loves to critique," Kardashian said. "North is like the new Joan Rivers if you ask me. And you can't really take it seriously, getting roasted by a 10-year-old, so I never do. But it stings a little."
