PARIS (AP) – Kim Kardashian received a fright at a Paris Fashion Week event Thursday when she was apparently jostled by someone waiting in a large crowd outside her car.
The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star had just exited her car at the posh Hotel Salomon de Rothschild when the kerfuffle erupted around 3 p.m.
In a video posted on website TMZ.com, Kardashian appears to stumble briefly after a person lunges towards her feet. Bodyguards instantly push Kardashian out of the way and subdue someone who remains off camera. Kardashian’s mother Kris Jenner can be seen yelling “Stop it!”
Ex-journalist Vitalii Sediuk, a former Ukrainian television reporter, told The Associated Press in an email that he is the person in the video, and that he’d only been trying to hug the star.
