North West steals the show at Kanye West's Sunday Service with Stevie Wonder performance

North West managed to steal the spotlight from father Kanye West at the rapper’s latest Sunday Service, as she sang and danced along to a Stevie Wonder classic.

In a series of clips shared to Twitter by her mother Kim Kardashian, the five-year-old could be spotted giving her all during a performance of Wonder’s track As.

The famous youngster joined her musician father, along with a gospel choir and a group of musicians, for the rendition of the 1977 hit, which was also popularised as a duet by George Michael and Mary J. Blige in 1999.

Though North’s vocals were drowned out by the sound of the choir, the eldest West sibling gripped the microphone like a pro and appeared to take her musical duties very seriously indeed, at one point dragging her mic stand to the front of the group so that she could take charge.

The rapper could be seen beaming with approval while dancing along from his seat.

“Had to move up front and center,” her proud mum captioned one Twitter video, adding a laughing emoji.

With her bright orange ensemble, North easily stood out against the choir’s uniform of beiges and greys.

Kardashian previously shared a video of her daughter dancing along to West’s track Lift Yourself at a Sunday Service in March.

The rapper launched his services in January, with previous attendees including the likes of Katy Perry and her fiancé Orlando Bloom, Courtney Love and Tyler the Creator, as well as Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner.

The location changes weekly, with previous venues including West’s studio in Calabasas and the adidas headquarters in Portland, Oregon.

He is set to bring the celebration to Coachella Festival this month.
