My daughter North cried for me: Kanye West

Los Angeles: Rapper Kanye West, joking about his daughter crying at his fashion show, says she was upset that people were being mean to him.

One-year-old North forced mother Kim Kardashian to leave the show, when she started crying during Kanye's Adidas runway show at the New York Fashion Week yesterday.

The trio were seated in the first row besides star couple Beyonce and Jay Z, Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, Rihanna and Sean 'P Diddy' Combs.

"Maybe she was just scared for her daddy. She just wanted people to stop being mean to her daddy. Because she knows that her daddy loves the world and just wants to make it a more beautiful place," Kanye, 37, said.
