Now, according to E! News, Kim was held at gunpoint by two or three men who wore masks and pretended to be police officers. Kardashian’s rep said that the incident — which took place inside of Kim’s hotel room — left Kardashian shaken up emotionally in a bad way, although Kim was not physically hurt.
As seen in the below photo, Kardashian shopped at the Givenchy Store during Paris Fashion Week on September 29.
Kanye was also with Kim that day, a few days prior to Kardashian being held at gunpoint.
According to the above tweet from CNN, Kim was held at gunpoint by three men, while other publications claim two men held Kim at gunpoint.
“Kim Kardashian West was held up at gunpoint inside her Paris hotel room this evening, by two armed masked men dressed as police officers. She is badly shaken but physically unharmed.”
The news of Kim being held at gunpoint also shook Kanye West, who cut his concert short in Queens at the Meadows Music & Arts Festival — and forced the venue to post the following message on Twitter about the cancellation.
Folks on Twitter responded to Kanye ending his concert, with some of them obviously not knowing the gravity of the situation of Kim being held at gunpoint. West called Kardashian being held at gunpoint a “family emergency” that was the reason for Kanye cutting his “Heartless” performance short.
As seen in the following video, Kanye abruptly stops his show and apologizes for doing so. However, some folks in the crowd begin cursing in shock and disbelief that West is leaving his concert.
On her own Twitter account, Kim has not yet responded to the scary Paris incident of being held at gunpoint — nor have many details spilled to the press about why Kardashian was held at gunpoint. It isn’t know if the two men who posed as cops and held Kim at gunpoint were seeking money or something else at this point.
According to the 7/27 World Tour Twitter account below, the men who held Kim at gunpoint allegedly stole one million dollars worth of jewelry from Kim.
The Instagram account of Kim does not yet make mention of Kardashian being held at gunpoint, however, Kim is collecting plenty of comments online with folks wishing her well.
People are posting prayers and the like for Kim and her children to remain safe.
According to the Twitter account of Joe Berg, initially Kanye was not going to leave his concert until the man who came onstage to tell West the news about Kim being held at gunpoint compelled Kanye to leave with him.
Some folks on Twitter recognize how scary it must have been for both Kim and Kanye — seeing as though Kim was the one who was held at gunpoint in Paris — and Kanye was all the way in New York when it happened.
