Kim Kardashian furiously blasts Met Gala security guard after awkward stumble
Kim Kardashian was left fuming after she stumbled on the Met Gala red carpet, with the star turning to reprimand a security guard as she was helped to her feet. Kim Kardashian created quite the buzz at this year's Met Gala, but it was her experience on the red carpet that really turned heads rather than her outfit. The event celebrated "black dandyism," prompting guests to sport custom-tailored ensembles. The 44 year old TV star and entrepreneur was caught on camera chastising a member of her security team in an awkward moment after she nearly toppled over while strutting for the cameras. Kim graced New York's most extravagant fashion night with daughter North West by her side, surrounded by speculation that her ex-husband Kanye West might disrupt the gala following a troubling spoof he shared online. Footage of Kim's near-fall swiftly circulated on TikTok, showing her stumble and immediately turn with visible annoyance towards a security guard. She seemed to scold him and gestured sharply with her hand, displaying a brief surge of irritation toward the event personnel, reports the Mirror. Later, as she clambered into a pick-up truck to ascend the Metropolitan Museum of Art's steps, she was noticed giving the guard a stern look. For the gala, Kim chose a form-fitting dress complemented by a customised Chrome Hearts fedora made of leather. Drawing inspiration from the iconic zoot suits donned by black men in the 1930s, Kim's ensemble had a subtle gangster flair. Completing her dark attire, she sparkled with a dramatic diamond necklace and coordinating earrings. Before hitting the red carpet, North West was pictured getting ready with her mum, Kim Kardashian, gearing up for an evening filled with high fashion. North was dressed in a matching cowhide jacket and shorts set, complemented by black Nike high crew socks and pricey $1,200 black leather Rick Owens trainers. While North is embraced at the glitzy event, her father Kanye West is said to be permanently barred from attending the annual gala. To prevent any unexpected appearances by Kanye, security measures have been intensified following his social media post of a video titled "MET BALL 2025", which shows him seemingly donning a Ku Klux Klan outfit. The Met Gala, known as fashion's biggest night, is held on the first Monday in May and celebrates the opening of the Costume Institute's spring exhibition at the New York museum. This year's theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, casts an eye back over 300 years of Black fashion, the concept of black dandyism and its lasting impact on contemporary style.

Jodie Turner-Smith's showstopping Burberry ensemble was elevated by a bold, statement-making hat that completed the look. Among the other UK stars in attendance were model Suki Waterhouse, musician FKA Twigs and Bafta-winning actress Aimee Lou Wood, who wore a look by London designer Priya Ahluwalia. Singer Charli XCX dressed black from head to toe, channelling a gothic look by Ann Demeulemeester, designed by Stefano Gallici on the Met Gala steps.

Kim Kardashian reprimands Met Gala security guard on camera after awkward stumble
This year's Met Gala saw Kim Kardashian stumble as she made her way onto the red carpet, with what appeared to be stern words for a security guard working the event Kim Kardashian caused a stir on the red carpet of this year's Met Gala, but not necessarily for her choice of outfit. This year, the highly cultured event is exploring the theme of "black dandyism," with star-studded attendees encouraged to wear personally tailored outfits. Cameras were rolling as the 44-year-old reality TV star and businesswoman could be seen reprimanding in a tense and awkward moment after she nearly fell while parading in front of the paparazzi. Kim was attending the biggest night in the New York fashion calendar with her daughter North West, amid fears that her former husband Kanye West could gate crash the event after a disturbing skit posted on social media. Videos were quickly shared on TikTok of the incident, with posts showing the Kardashian stumbling forward before turning angrily to the security guard. She appears to say something to reprimand him and holds up her hand with a flash of anger at the event staff. Afterwards, as she hopped into the back of a pick-up truck to make it up the Metropolitan Museum of Art Steps, she was reportedly seen glaring in the direction of the guard. Kim donned a bodycon dress with some tailored leather for the event, with a complementing Chrome Hearts fedora. The ensemble drew its inspiration from the zoot suits of black male tailoring in the 1930s, reports the Mail. With a slight mobster vibe, Kim matched her dark outfit with a glittering, cascading diamond necklace with matching earrings. In pictures shared before the red carpet, North West can be seen getting ready with her mum, Kim, as she prepares for a night of high fashion. North sported a coordinated cowhide jacket and shorts ensemble, paired with black Nike high crew socks and $1,200 black leather Rick Owens trainers. While North may be more than welcome at the star-studded event, her father Kanye is reportedly banned from ever returning to the annual fundraiser. Security has had to be beefed up to prevent Kanye from making a surprise appearance at the event, after he posted a video titled "MET BALL 2025" on social media, where he appears to be wearing a Ku Klux Klan outfit.

Fears Met Gala could be gate crashed by Kanye West spark drastic new security rules
Kanye West has reportedly sparked a security panic at the Met Gala 2025, with Anna Wintour said to be enforcing strict new protocols in case the rapper attempts to gatecrash the event Met Gala 2025 could be heading for a storm, but it's not the fashion causing a stir. It is being reported that Anna Wintour has beefed up security at the Met over concerns that Kanye West might crash the star-studded high-fashion bash uninvited. Insiders speaking to RadarOnline suggested: " Anna is not messing around. There's a full protocol in place if Kanye is spotted anywhere near the carpet." This drastic step follows Ye's posting of a deeply unsettling drawing suggesting he would show up in a KKK-inspired getup. The sketch, uploaded to his X profile, depicted a figure topped with a hood akin to those worn by the racist Ku Klux Klan, complete with boots and gloves. West labelled his artwork "MET BALL 2025," and sparked a large backlash, with his fans vehemently criticising the creation, comparing it to the similar get-up he wore during an interview with DJ Akademiks. Immediate outrage ensued, leaving Met Gala officials worried the artist might craft another headline-worthy fiasco on their night. A top fashion security expert cautioned the outlet: "It's not just about the outfit – it's about the chaos he brings. After what happened at the Grammys, no one's taking chances." Other reports in the States indicate that Kim Kardashian is feeling tense about possibly bumping into her ex-husband, Kanye, at the event. A source connected to the reality star and Skims founder told RadarOnline: "Kim is focused on her look and her brand. The last thing she wants is Kanye pulling a stunt and hijacking the night." While there's no formal ban against West, his potential presence is reportedly sparking stress behind the scenes. Insiders claim Wintour has requested a comprehensive strategy in case the hip-hop star shows up near the glam gala. An informant noted: "If he shows up, there's a plan. Anna has made it clear – no drama on her carpet." The Met Gala, an event synonymous with Wintour's leadership, is notorious for its ritzy attendees and fashion extravaganzas. Taking place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the soirée usually hosts about 450 distinguished guests, from entertainment elite to political heavyweights. This year's motif is titled Superfine—Tailoring Black Style, and Wintour will co-chair the 2025 event alongside stars such as Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams.
