While in Paris for Fashion Week, Kim Kardashian West was held up at gunpoint Sunday night in her hotel room by "two armed masked men dressed as police officers," her representative said. "She is badly shaken but physically unharmed."
French police say the reality star had "millions" of dollars worth of items, mostly jewelry, stolen. Her husband, Kanye West, was performing at the Meadows Music & Arts Festival in New York City on Sunday night when he told the audience he had to stop the show because of a "family emergency." It's unclear if their children, North, 3, and Saint, 9 months, were in the hotel room at the time.
