Kim Kardashian Wears Fulani Braids On The Red Carpet...Experiences Backlash

Kim Kardashian West has spoken out against critics who judged her for rocking fulani braids for an awards show and allowing her five-year-old daughter get her naturally curly hair straightened in a revealing new interview. 

The 37-year-old reality star dazzled in her white crop top paired with a sparkly skirt for the MTV Movie & TV awards Sunday - but people were shocked she chose to wear her hair in thin corn rows after experiencing an immense about of backlash earlier this year.

In an interview with Bustle, Kim revealed her decision to wear the braids was because her eldest daughter, North West, wanted matching hairstyles.
