Kim Kardashian Held at Gunpoint in Paris
Her husband, rapper Kanye West, abruptly left his
set early at the Meadows Festival in New York on
Sunday night after learning of the news.
A Paris police official confirmed that there was a
robbery involving Kardashian but she was
unharmed, and that an investigation was underway.
“She is badly shaken but physically unharmed,” a
spokesperson for the star said.
Jewellery worth millions was stolen, police sources
suggest.
Reports since claim there were as many as five
people involved in the robbery, which is said to
have taken place in a luxury residence, not a hotel.
The original spokesperson suggested that “two
armed masked men dressed as police officers” had
held up Kardashian “at gunpoint inside her Paris
hotel room”.
The 35-year-old reality TV star is currently in the
French city attending Paris Fashion Week, with her
mother Kris Jenner and her sister Kendall Jenner.
West told his concert audience that he had to leave
early as he had a “family emergency”.
A number of fans caught on video the moment he
announced he was cutting the gig short.
In a later statement they added: “Due to a family
emergency, Kanye West was forced to end his
performance towards the end of his set.
“We appreciate the great show he put on for fans to
close the inaugural Meadows Festival.
“Our thoughts are with West and his family.”
Last week Kardashian was approached by a man
who tried to kiss her bottom.
One of her bodyguards intervened.
“I encourage her and the rest of Kardashian clan to
popularise natural beauty among teenage girls who
follow and defend them blindly.”
