[Watch (HLS stream): North West Did What During Kim And Kanye’s Vogue Cover Shoot?](https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/XEm1HB3q.m3u8) (1:02)  _Published 2014-03-26. Kim dropped by “Late Night” to reveal what went on behind the scenes during her Vogue cover shoot. Turns out, baby North had a little accident… All over Kanye!_ by [Samantha Grossman](https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/) ## Samantha Grossman Mar 26, 2014 4:21 PM UTC by [Samantha Grossman](https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/) ## Samantha Grossman Mar 26, 2014 4:21 PM UTC So much for _Vogue_ being all about poise and glamour. On _Late Night_ Tuesday, Kim Kardashian told Seth Meyers a fun fact about her recent top-secret photo shoot for the fashion magazine with fiance Kanye West and their baby, North. Apparently nine-month-old North totally peed on Kanye while she was lying nude on the rapper’s chest during the portrait session by legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz. We assume Kanye was like, “North, I keep telling you not to pee on me!” and then she was like, “Excuse me, was you saying something? Uh, uh, you [can’t tell me nothing](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E58qLXBfLrs&feature=kp).” We’ll see ourselves out. ## Transcript For your late night highlight, Kim Kardashian dropped by Late Night to reveal what went on behind the scenes during her Vogue cover shoot. Turns out someone had a little accident when the cameras were flashing. Hint: it wasn't Kanye. Actually, North peed on him right at that moment. North peed on Kanye? And he was trying to tell me. And I couldn't really hear him. And I had to get up and get her. [ LAUGH ] Oops. Maybe little North just couldn't hold her excitement in anymore. As proud mom Kim told Seth Meyers, she and Kanye had to keep the Vogue photo shoot a secret from everyone. Even from family. Only momager Kris Jenner knew because they shot it at her house. But it was all worth it. Kim said, gracing the cover with Kanye was a dream come true and compared the experience to living in a Sex and the City episode. You can snag your own copy of KimYe's now infamous Vogue cover online or in stores now. Thanks for watching.
