North West Reveals Fake Name She Uses With Her Friends

North West knows fame comes with a price. 

So, when Kim Kardashian and Kanye West‘s eldest daughter is out in public, she’s found a way to circumvent some issues by adopting a new identity.

“I have one,” North, 11, told her mom in a sit-down for Interview Magazine published Oct. 11. “But I’m going to change because nobody believes me. It’s Katie Johnson.”

“When I’m out at Sky Zone with my friends, they call me Katie, but when I look in the mirror for a long time, I’m like, ‘I do not look like a Katie,'” the tween explained. “And then I was like, ‘Okay, I got to change my name.’ So I’m telling y’all now.”

Because for North and her siblings Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, Psalm, 5, there isn’t much they can control with the magnitude of their popularity. While the eldest loves being on camera, she wishes it was only on her terms.
